Another wave of series were announced this morning and although the Bat-books have been announced there was one announcement that will be taking place in Batman's neck of the woods, even if it is set over a hundred years before Batman existed.     Even when Gotham City was just a one-horse town, crime was rampant – and things only get worse when bounty hunter Jonah Hex comes to town. Can Amadeus Arkham, a pioneer in criminal psychology, enlist Hex’s special brand of justice to help the Gotham…

Let’s just start things off with the usual “A day late and a dollar short” banter, yes I know this review is a couple of weeks behind the issues release, and my reviews have been coming out later and later. Hopefully, things will get to a proper schedule when the next issue of Red Robin comes out, cause it’s a new storyline, and chances are, I may enjoy the book again. But this isn’t Red Robin, no, it’s the Teen Titans. Yes, it’s part…

Not only have times been tough for Bruce Wayne under the guardianship of writer Grant Morrison, but what about us readers? We’ve seen Batman staked to the ground, attacked by hyperfauna, shot, burned and pronounce clinically dead for at least two minutes. And that was just during Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne. So would Mr Morrison let us take a breather from all this high tension time traveling with Batman Incorporated #1? In short, YES.   The era of Bruce franchising out the Batman brand…
