Ace the Bathound--with a flying Batwing, no less.

The latest issue of Jonah Hex, #61, features a character we haven't seen in many a moon: Hex's first wife, Mei Ling!
I don’t have the energy to follow all the Bat-titles anymore, but I do like to read a Batman story from time-to-time, and Howard Chaykin’s “Follow the Money” one-shot fills the bill of what I am looking for in a Batman story quite nicely: done-in-one

Page 3, panel 1: That's Supergirl again. As I feared, they did not explain her prescence, now they do not explain her absence. Her sacrifice is not mentioned, the most public of Crisis' heroic deaths. Was she drawn in as a homage to her original sign

I've been hearing really good things about Paul Cornell's Luthor stories, but I've been resisting it so far, because Luthor doesn't really interest me (his evil peaked in that diner years ago). But now there's gonna
*I think that Michael Cera is this generation's John Cusack.
*Sex Bob-Omb is now my favorite fictional band.

I'm fortunate to be in an area where the libraries are good about building their graphic novel collections. However, after a few over-zealous library visits the past couple of weeks, I find myself with an embarrassment of riches — 36 graphic novels!

OK, we know the title...we know it's coming summer 2012...it'll be in IMAX but NOT 3D (yay!)...Nolan has stated "no Riddler" and previously has said that the Joker ain't coming back.
