The Court of Owls is intense psychological drama and action with the best hero ever, Batman. Bruce Wayne feels a sense of responsibility towards Gotham, views it as his city by inheritance, since his family has spent generations defending and building the city. At times, it feels like a losing propo...
A new review on my personal blog, The Itinerant Librarian. Here is an excerpt: "I recently finished reading the first two volumes of Scott Snyder's run on Batman, part of DC's The New 52 series. In Batman, Vol. 1: The Court of Owls and Batman, Vol. 2: The City of Owls, Snyder delivers a solid stor...
I liked it. They can reboot Bruce Wayne until I'm 80, and as long as the storyline, villainous characters, and visual art is stunning...I'll read it. This is not for the fluffy Harry Potter Owl lovers.Actually, I haven't been this terrified of birds since the Alfred Hitchcock film. This society is j...
I like Batman. A lot. He's that guy that makes you wish you could be a superhero. Superman is the one we all aspire to be (because he's the best, let's face it), but Batman is the one we actually feel like we have a chance to become. If only we work, train, focus.We could be him.And that's the l...

I was a little sceptically about the New 52 comics, but wow was I wrong! Batman was fantastic! Maybe even my new favorite comic series! The Court of Owls is the villain in this one, and let me tell you, they not only creep me out, but they were also really fascinating!Batman's character goes through...
