NEWS: Scott Snyder wants to do a Two-Face story! Oh dear...
Hey everyone! As usual, it's been a while between posts, and while the item I have today broke over a month ago, it popped up again over the past NYCC weekend, so I figured that it's time to prepare ourselves for what may well be Harvey Dent's long-awaited return to mainstream DCU... courtesy of Scott Snyder!

DC is releasing a new Two-Face collection, and guess what ISN'T included?
That’s right: Eye of the Beholder! Despite the earliest solicits bearing Neal Adams’ cover for the issue, they have YET AGAIN snubbed this important and influential issue. What. The fuck, DC.
So what will be included instead? An out-of-context issue of The Long Halloween (which, of course, HAS been in print and reprinted many, many times since its ( Read more... ) -
New review announcement, and hey, how've you all been?
Hey everyone, sorry for the very long absence. There have been times when I've seriously considered just officially announcing a hiatus, just because there have been so many things which I've wanted and failed to review. Not just The Long Halloween review (which IS on indefinite hiatus, sorry to everyone I've left hanging), but also Beware the ( Read more... ) -

Let's have a quick recap of what's happened in DD3 thus far.In the wake of his meltdown with Silver St. Cloud, Batman tries to distract himself by going to London, where Killer Moth has supposedly been on a crime spree.

Review: Steve Englehart's Unpublished Sequel to His "Batman: Dark Detective" Saga! (Part 1 of 2)
UPDATE: The second half is now up!
Today's review was exciting for me as it was bittersweet. It's not often that I get to review the unpublished sequel to one of the greatest Batman storylines of all time, and with the blessings of the writer himself, to boot!
Long-time readers will know that I love love love Steve Englehart's 1978 run in ( Read more... ) -
*tap tap* Anyone still there?
Hey everyone, since the last couple posts didn't get many comment beyond three or four of the ol' regulars, I've been a bit concerned that most people have fled this LJ for greener, more active pastures. I'd understand why that might happen, given my lack of activity over the past six months, plus LJ's tendency to be hacked and shut down on a semi- ( Read more... ) -
News: The cover and solicit of "Batman '66: The Lost Episode," the debut of '66 Two-Face!
As you may have heard from the annoucement at Comic Con, there's a major Batman event coming up in November centered around Two-Face! No, it's not the follow-up to The Big Burn (dang it), but it's every bit as awesome in its own way: the "lost" Two-Face episode of the 60's Batman show will be adapted to comics with an all-star roster of talent!

State of the Fanblog: Still Not Dead (Again)
Geez, it's been five months since I last posted anything? I guess I kept holding off until we found out whether or not Harvey actually survived the cliffhanger ending of The Big Burn, which we still haven't yet. Damn it, I need closure! Knowing DC, they'll probably just forget about TBB entirely and Harvey will pop up alive and well just in time ( Read more... ) -
REVIEW: The Doubly-Shocking Finale of "The Big Burn" (2014)
Note: This is the second half of my latest review which I've had to split because it was too long, which I believe is a first for me. If you haven't read the first part, read it here now and follow the link at the bottom back here! And as with the last part, I'm adding a trigger warning for suicide, suicidal thoughts, and self-harm.
