A grimy, noir BATMAN tale from the creators of 100 BULLETS sounds like a home run in my book. But, despite the amazing art, and the dark poetry of the narrative, I just couldn‘t muster the enthusiasm I thought this would engender. I‘m not sure why, but the book left me cold, when I should have loved it.
It‘s a comfort read. But look at Nightwing and Flash trying to figure out different ways speedsters could carry other superheroes: LOOK AT THEM. The Bat-born : Flash : Is this really more dignified? Nightwing (pleased): Nope. Way comfier though. The Dirty Dancing: Nightwing: I feel like I‘m flying! Flash (displeased): Yeah, I‘m not running with you like this.
Thank You @catsandbooks for #ShowAndTellTuesday and for the tag 🥳🎨💝.
Made this tonight, from upcycled materials.
Saved the foil seal from baking powder and transformed it into a Batman bookmark 🦇🔖📚 by cutting out design, using double-sided tape to attach to a drawing I doodled, and attaching a string that I had saved from a previous project.
These make good ornaments. Just be sure to be cautious in case the foil is sharp.
☺️🎨🦇💝.
I combined Batman with one of my favorite sayings:
“Hope Is Like A Seed, & A Seed Must First Be Planted In Darkness“ -Unknown
To create my Haiku:
A Darkness Swept World
A Rage Born From Injustice
Yet Hope Is A Seed

A delightful amount of mind-bending silliness with the imps, followed by a short detour to Themiscyra, all foes defeated through the power of friendship (aka allied bad asses combining their power). I think Robin had the best lines throughout. A particularly wholesome entry in this series, which continues to be a feast for the eyeballs thanks to Dan Mora's art. Always eager to see more!
Pfft, ah, Robin, no hesitation. 🤦🏼♂️
Yes, the Imps are manipulating reality, but also, they look fantastic, in a very 80s way. 💥✨
What do you mean Batman doesn't have superpowers?

I remember the moon.
A cold and bloated orb, it watches with indifference as we pass below.
I remember my parents smiling—recalling some incident of our evening in town. They are so happy.
How quickly that can change, eh?
Something happens … the coach stops abruptly.
