So that Batgirl/Joker variant cover got pulled, and that’s great. But it’s not enough.

I’m Loving: The 90s Batman Movies
Netflix has every Batman movie from the original Burton franchise up, and I love rewatching them all over again. One of the first Batman anything I ever saw was Batman and Robin, the fourth movie of the franchise that featured Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy and Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze. The movie was terrible,…
Jason Momoa: Wet Naked Poster Child For The Narrative Revolution
On Friday, Zack Snyder dropped new photographs of Jason Momoa as Aquaman and, as I’m sure you all have realized, it is everything we deserve. There was a lot of talk on Twitter about how the new Aquaman was sexy—to his detriment to some but to his improvement for others—and, for some people, to whom…
Double Trouble, Gotham via Riverdale: Date Night With WWAC
I’m at the fanciest Italian restaurant in Riverdale (weirdly, I can also order lobster here). Across the table is my Valentine’s date—high school heartthrob and continual teenage crush Jason Blossom.

Over the last few years, I’ve been thinking a lot about A Death in the Family, Jason Todd, and their role in Batcanon. It’s generally agreed that Jason was a so-so Robin and that he’s much improved as Red Hood. However, I’m going to take that general agreement a step further and state that not…
Welcome to Gotham Academy
Gotham Academy Becky Cloonan and Brendan Fletcher DC Comics Gotham Academy is what I like to call DC’s way in with the young adult readership. Of course we have the current run of Batgirl too, but Gotham Academy is a new series with all new characters and it’s outside the influence of DC’s other titles….
Where Do We Stand: December Comics and Graphic Novel Sales
I wish I had happier news to report, but unfortunately, representation of women in the top 10 comics and graphic novels lists in December was a sad state of affairs. Not surprisingly, Marvel and DC ruled the top ten list this month with Marvel placing seven titles on the list. Topping Diamond’s list of single issue comics…
