Batman Inc. #1 Bruce Wayne is back from his trek through time and realises that two Batmen are better than one. So with Dick Grayson and Damian Wayne handling the villains of Gotham City along as Batman and Robin, Bruce Wayne is free to go from country to country, all over the world, inspiring others to become their own nation's "Batman".
Written by Grant Morrison with art by Yanick Panaquette, this book has already created a lot of buzz, and with lots of guest stars sure to be popping up, I can't wait to start reading. And I have to say I hope he pays a visit to the Dark Ranger, the Australian "Batman", because i'm sure he could really use some help from the original.
Batwoman #0
Batwoman first appeared again sometime
during '52' and became more heavily
featured in 'Detective Comics' after the
disappearance of Bruce Wayne during the
events of 'Final Crisis', and the short run
she was featured in became highly popular
with both fans and critics.
Now DC is giving the people what they want with a Batwoman on-going series, and this issue #0 serves as
a precursor to it. With J.H. Williams returning to write the series along with W. Haden Blackman. Williams will also shoulder art duties for the first arc of the series, with Amy Reeder taking over for the second. After winning praise from both critics and the Gay and Lesbian community
for featuring a gay character in such a well
known title, this series is sure to be popular, and i'm certainly looking forward to seeing some of Williams' fantastic art again.
Hellboy: Double Feature of Evil #1
Hellboy returns with another one-shot before 'The Fury' starts up, hopefully sometime next year. This story features two tales from Hellboy's earlier days with the B.P.R.D., including a run in with zombies and another with mummies.
Written by Mike Mignola and featuring art from Richard Corben, this one-shot looks great to me, not only because i'm sure it'll have some great art an writing, it has mummies! When was the last time you read/saw something with mummies as the monster? Exactly. It's been a while.
After this we're getting 'Hellboy: The Sleeping and the Dead' in January, but hopefully this will hold fans over until then.
