New comics for today. I’m really digging this Punisher series. Most of all, though, I was excited about the new TMNT series written by co-creator Kevin Eastman. This was also the last batch of DC Comics before the relaunch begins next week.

I think right now, we’re all feeling that way. Nobody has much faith in their elected leaders in the same way that they did. We all have a lot more cynicism and a lot more doubt about the people who are running our lives than we did when Superman was a ‘Boy Scout.’
If anyone in the world’s been bullied, then Superman exists to take out the bully, no matter how big or smart or armed that bully might be.

Day One: First Batman comic you read?
It’s actually a bit hard for me to remember the very first Batman comic I read because I’m sure it was when I was very young. So I suppose I’ll have to improvise a bit and answer with the comic that got be reading Batman again.
I remember walking into a comic shop and strolling over towards the section of new books—the ones that had come out the previous Wednesday. On the shelf was a stack of Batman comics with the words “Batman: R.I.P.” across the top next to a blood-soaked bat. Was DC Comics actually killing Batman? I had to flip through it.Inside the comic was panel after panel of spectacular art from Tony Daniel, but one section in particular caught my eye:
I had no idea what was going on, but I bought it immediately. I had to know why Batman’s costume was so different, what “Zurr-en-arrh” meant. Soon enough, I was all caught up on the “R.I.P.” arc, and I’ve been buyingBatmanever since.
Batman #678 by Grant Morrisson and Tony Daniel got me back into comics, and I couldn’t be happier about it.
