    Morrison's Great

    Grant Morrison, our favorite Scotman, is a very creative writer and came up last January with an interesting idea: train more Batmen throughout the world and call it Batman, Inc. Bruce Wayne arrives in Japan with the Catwoman as they attempt to stop a gang that deals in Death – the gang kills this guy Mr. Unknown and we see how Batman deals with this. After a few tussles, we meet Jiro, and he shoots the Lord Dead man dead! And a trap with a squid at the end, and Catwoman all tied up, is kinda silly.

    Still, great art team with Yanick Paquette and Michel Lacombe! On the last pages a brief write-up by Detective Comics’ writer Scott Snyder as he talks about the new characters coming out in the coming year. And as you know, the year 2011 was pretty big for DC.

    Not sure if I’ll continue with this series, but it looks like a good start.

    Before DC lowered their prices, this baby would have set you back $3.99!

      Batman, Inc. Open for Business 0

      Grant Morrison, grand poobah of all things Dark Knight, brought us the newest chapter of the saga of Bruce Wayne this week. Batman, Inc. is the latest ongoing series, and probably the most talked about this year. Bruce Wayne revealed to the world last week that he is the Batman's "mysterious benefactor," and as such he believes the mission driving the world's finest detective should be taken global. Now Bruce travels the globe, training foreign crime-fighters up to be their countries' "Batman". ...
