I thought he was doing good work with black mask and then Bane. But I agree with you on the treatment of the rogues.

Here we go with Snyder's favorite immortal uber-Joker again... with an end twist that could be interesting, but I really don't think this series can become exciting anymore.
Absolute Batman #15
Alfred reveals to Bruce the story of the man he's been chasing for years. Enter: Joker! Scott Snyder and Jock reunite for an epic tale in the Absolute Universe!
Action Comics #1093
Sometimes the battles worth fighting are at home in Smallville and not in the big city of Metropolis. After a poor harvest, the future of Kent Farm is on the line. So what do you do when superpowers can't solve your problems? Superboy is about to find out!
Jason Aaron may have left, but Gene Luen Yang offers us a good jumping-on point with the Turtles working together at last and a worthwhile adversary. I'm definitely in, can't wait for the next issue !
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #13
A new era of TMNT begins! Acclaimed Eisner-winning writer Gene Luen Yang (American Born Chinese, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Superman Smashes the Klan) takes on writing duties for TMNT! Following the stunning events of TMNT #12, the Turtles face a different New York...one where they are viewed as heroes! The celebration will be short-lived as new t...
Ultimate Spider-Man #23
You think we're going to tell you what happens in the penultimate issue of ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN? That would be spoilers galore! Just know it's building to a finale you won't want to miss!
I feel like Dexter Soy's art is getting better and better, with a touch of Daredevil in some of Nightwing's poses. And Dan Watter's pacing and chartacterization are faultless, as usual...
Nightwing #132
Nightwing takes a page from Batman's playbook and storms Spheric Solutions, ready to end his conflict with Olivia Pearce once and for all. Unbeknownst to Nightwing, she's been planning for his arrival, and the battle quickly turns explosive, public, and personal. Can Blüdhaven's hero survive when his own city turns against him?
Nova: Centurion #1
GOT A PROBLEM? NOVA CAN HELP - FOR A PRICE! With the Xandarian Worldmind, the sentient repository of an entire extinct people's culture and history, relying on regular (and expensive) energy infusions, Richard Rider is for hire. A deep-space drifter weighed down with the truth of the terrible lie that the new Galactic Union was built upon, Nova is ...
And that's how it's done ! While Marvel's issue of the crossover was a big fail, DC's offering is much better.
In the main story, we get the long-awaited reteaming of the creators of Klaus. Though it's not on par with their previous work, Morrison goes adequately bonkers with the story and Dan Mora's art is brimming with details. I'm not sure I got everything but it kept me immmersed an

Batman / Deadpool #1
The Dark Knight and the Merc with a Mouth team up for an adventure so mind-bending you'll think you're in a dream! Brought to you by legendary creators Grant Morrison and Dan Mora! And be sure not to miss these incredible extra stories: Scott Snyder, James Tynion IV, and Joshua Williamson team up with Hayden Sherman for a magical Constantine/Docto...
One World Under Doom #8
Doom battles the combined might of an entire world to maintain his control: But can even he stand against the Avengers, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four...and every other hero on Earth? It seems like all hope is lost: until a desperate gambit gives the heroes exactly what they need to win! But Doom has a desperate gambit of his own: one that, though i...
This event really ended on a high note, centered on character writing with outstanding visuals by RM silva. I cant't wait to read the impact of this conclusion in Fantastic Four, and it's a shame that Sorcerer Surpreme will be written by Steve Orlando, one of the few writers that truly bore me...
One World Under Doom #9
FINALE! Doom has confronted all of Earth's heroes in battle - and he's won. What's more, he's used the magical power of Sorcerer Supreme to ensure that this victory has become a fixed moment in time: a thing that will stand forever, impervious to magic or time travel alike. But unbeknownst to Doom, in that climatic moment that can now never be chan...
Batman & Robin: Year One #11
The war over Gotham reaches the doorstep of Wayne Manor as Dick Grayson isripped from Bruce and Alfred after fake evidence shows their care is unsafe for the young ward. It'll take both Bruce and Batman to save Dick Grayson and the future of Gotham City!
What a good idea to waste some talented artists for a quick cash grab !!!!
Did I say talents ? Maybe that's pushing it in the case of Frank Miller whom I would call aa formerly talented artist. His Batman vs Wolverine might be the worst thing I've read in a while.
Good parts ? Well I guess the Krypto vs Jeff was cute, Adam Kubert did a good job on Green Arrow vs DD and The Rocket Racoon

Deadpool / Batman #1
The crossover you've pined for but never thought possible: DEADPOOL and BATMAN cross swords and batarangs as MARVEL and DC unite for the first time in decades!
WADE WILSON has been hired for a job in GOTHAM CITY, but will the WORLD'S GREATEST DETECTIVE help him or destroy him? The main story starring Deadpool and Batman will be written...
Don't know what happened with the art on this issue. Usually a big fan of Andrea Milana's work but most of the panels felt rushed here. Really liked the story but I was a bit bummed out by the lack of details and simplified art...
G.I. Joe #11
The final showdown with Major Bludd. It'll be an eye for an eye...

The final showdown with Major Bludd. It'll be an eye for an eye...
The iffy racial politics of Waylon being turned into Croc just to make Bruce sad was problematic, but having most of the bigger Batman rogues' origins default into "Bane punched them very hard to make Bruce sad and now they all hate Bruce" is just plain stupid.
Congratulations to Dragotta for making it look pretty, at least.
Absolute Batman #12
Batman is at the mercy of the monstrous Bane. And though his body hasseen better days, his mind and spirit are still strong. But how much longercan that withstand Bane's brutal onslaught?
One World Under Doom #7
Fallout continues from what was revealed last month, and Doom finds his grip on power loosening. But he's not going to give it up without a fight - on several fronts. Doom once sought glory, but that glory is now dead. All that is left is power and control as rebellions in several countries are quickly - and brutally - put down. As Doom prepares to...
One World Under Doom #6
Doom's reign has been a success for months - with even some of the heroes questioning if they're on the right side. A final desperate gamble is conceived, and Reed reveals a terrible secret he's acquired about Doom's global domination - but will it be enough? And what has Doom been hiding under that Latverian Dome? All is revealed - at terrible cos...
One World Under Doom #5
Dormammu has come for Doom - and Doom has SURVIVED.
Broken, depleted, but having bought the time he needed, Doom ensured that all Earth's heroes would survive. These heroes now face a choice: They can allow Earth to fall to Dormammu - or they can align with Doom and fight for Earth beside him. Doom is at his highest - with Earth's heroes ...
One World Under Doom #4
Sensing vulnerability, Dormammu has attacked Earth - and only Doom stands in his way! Dormammu has banished all other heroes to a pocket dimension, leaving Doom to stand alone against the Dark Lord of Chaos.
But on the other hand...Doom has never needed allies in order to ensure that his will is done.
It's the ultimate showdown between...
Well that's it for me, guess I'm dropping this title.
Scott Synder is moving like a bulldozer, rewriting Batman like a horror show. And yes, there is supposed to be some reinvention with the absolute titles but to me he goes way too far...and nowhere interesting. I was curious about what he would make of Batman's rogue gallery and now that I've seen their treatment without any ounce of fines

Absolute Wonder Woman #9
The temptation of everything Diana has ever wanted lies just inside, butalso, untold horrors and no known escape. Diana has entered the maze,and nothing will ever be the same again.
Hello! thought you were dropping this title. I tend to agree with you. Snyder and Joker, not my favorite combo.
I'm not buying the title anymore, but I still read it...
