El Flamingo hands the womp down! (spoilers) 1
Don't let the cover fool you. This issue reeks of bad@#$ness. I respect everyone's right to their own opinion, but was a little taken aback by the rating this issue had when i first checked (a 1.8avg). Well of course I have a bias due to my love for Morrison's writing and the character Batman, but that doesn't mean you the reader should take my word for it. However despite my views i feel that Batman and Robin #6 was a very solid issue. of course the action and art was well done, but it was more...

A Masterpiece?... 3
I feel like this series is junk and that Grant Morrison, in strict context to this title, is highly overrated. What's worse is that I feel there's a lot of propaganda that people are buying into for this series. Babs made mention that this is "Grant Morrison's Masterpiece" which had me picking my jaw off the floor. His masterpiece? What's there to call a masterpiece? So far the entire series has been a stage for Morrison to parade his fetishes… Again. These fetishes have taken the form of th...

Every Thing is One Big Story line/ The Dots are connecting 0
This is an excellent I truely can't say anything without spoiling it, but i'll try. Okay this is the last part in the Revenge of the Red Hood story arc. It starts out, when Dick wakes up and only to find himself and Damien strapped to 2 chairs with a webcame in front of them. Red Hood streams a contest to the whole of the world saying that he has captured Batman and Robin if 1 million people call in the number on their screen (notice the refrence) they will be able to learn Batman abd Robin's i...

So like he eats people's faces?... AWESOME! 0
Grant Morrison is a sick bastard. He manages to create villains so messed up that's the books they appear in are hard to read. His Batman and Robin arch has been full of that. He's spawn nightmares such as Professor Pyg, Scarlet, and Flamingo (I mean they're in Batman #66 but hey cut me some slack). I feel this title does the best job at really setting Batman on a positive trajectory. But on to the issue at hand: I think Philip Tan is an amazing talent but when I compare anyone to Fran Quitely ...

Batman & Robin #6 1
Frank Quitely is still on break, he is only drawing the cover. Philip Tan is taking his place and drawing the interior Art. First off, the Frank's cover just looked a little weird. When I saw the face of Flamingo I instantly thought of a Alfred and Commissioner Gordon. Issue 5 is the best in the series. We have a good story and a fight against Flamingo, with the team up being Batman, Robin, Jason, and Scarlet against this face eating monster. The GoodIn the beginning we have Dick and Damian, ...

Tragicomic Mash-up 2
This is a great illustration of the problem with Grant Morrison's work on Batman. There is a layer of absolutely ruthless and degenerate evil exposed through the villains against their victims. And there is a layer of gonzo, outrageous, out-of-left-field bizarre humor. In trying to incorporate both, Morrison's run is failing on both levels. Now I know, people love his stories over the long run, but a TON of it is just based on this simple formula: Something that would never happen, or should ne...
