Video essayist, and author of Rogues' Gallery, I spend way too much time, energy and money on comic books so I've created a second channel to talk all about them.

Comments are moderated, and I have zero tolerance for racism, homophobia, sexism, or any other discriminatory behaviour. You don't have to agree with each other, just don't be jerks.

The Back Issue Brigade has cast their vote and… it’s a tie! Looks like I’ll be making Members Only videos about Paul Dini’s Dark Knight: A True Batman Story AND Batman: The Long Halloween this month.

At this rate I may never get around to making a video about how the Batman writers of the 1950s and 60s lifted ideas from The Blackhawks, but I had to get this comic for myself.

Aside from the name and the cold gun, the concept is pretty different.

If you want to hear more, become a channel Member and vote for this topic in May’s Back Issue Brigade exclusive video poll.

Just wanted to share these panels from Bruce Timm’s short story Two Of A Kind, which was part of Batman Black & White 1, published in 1996.

This is one of my favourite Batman stories.

DC have just released their solicitations for August’s comics and I had to share these covers.

Absolute Batman 23, with the debut of Clayface.
Absolute Superman 23, with the debut of Metallo
Absolute Wonder Woman 23, with the debut of Ares (?)

And as a bonus I love this Superman variant cover that homages John Byrne’s Superman 1z

We’re eating good this August!
