Review Shooter: Flashpoint: Batman: Knight of Vengeance

Writer: Brian Azzarello Artist: Eduardo Risso For the past 3 months, I’ve gone back and forth on how to deal with all the Flashpoint tie-ins.

Review Shooter: Flashpoint 1

FP12

Writer: Geoff Johns Artist: Andy Kubert Whenever a comic book event gets announced nowadays, I can’t help but hear the Jaws theme playing in the back of my head. A predator of my wallet is fast-approaching. Sure, we know that’s why companies do these big events, but they can also be rather fun. Though there …
