May 24, 2012 6:23 pm Burnham has kicked ass on this issue. He's really made a big step up on this issue.

May 24, 2012 4:48 pm Agreed. It's the best issue of Batman he's done since issue #1 of Batman & Robin. Def my potw too.

May 24, 2012 11:20 am The David Finch & Duane Swierzcki version was excellent. It really brought the character back into prominence and had a huge push from Marvel. It fell apart in later issues but the first year was excellent.

May 23, 2012 1:52 pm Brian Wood is a great choice. Then again, I'd be happy if he wrote every comic!

May 21, 2012 5:48 pm This move by Bendis is the height of stupidity. The young kids he's writing this for aren't per-ordering their books months in advance.

May 21, 2012 5:46 pm I don't want to name and shame here but it's a pretty big UK retailer with a branch in Ireland. They're the only ones with reliable stock, and as comic shops are very scarce on the ground choice is limited. The price combined with new staff who simply aren't as good to ensure what you want pulled actually gets into the folder has put me off singles in a big way in the past year.

May 21, 2012 1:38 pm Super article Jim. Since I got the new iPad a couple months back I've really dived into digital comics. The screen is of such high quality that to my eyes the line work is better than print on monthlies, and just as good as tpb printing. The cost is also a huge factor for me. A $3.99 book sells for €2.99 digitally or €5.10 in print in Ireland. As sad as it is to admit, I've been moving away from single issues in print and my comic store is suffering a loss of my business as a result. I find the vast majority of money I spend in-store is now on comics merch rather than comics.

May 15, 2012 6:30 pm I think there's a lot of leeway for a move back to Starman. Easily the best supporting cast and most realised city in DC comics. I think Jack Knight is done but I don't too that it would be a stretch for someone who has written so many legacy characters to put a new Starman in the costume and bring them to Opal.

May 14, 2012 5:30 pm Graduation day was great, but the Johns Teen Titans run that came out of it was even better. The Andreyko run on Sam & Twitch came about because McFarlane threw all the toys out of h pram when Bendis had the cheek to work for someone other than Image if I remember correctly.

May 14, 2012 2:51 pm Ive found this is getting stronger each issue. If only Robinson would get back to Starman!
