…and my pick of the month is… DETECTIVE COMICS!!!
So there you have it. What were your favorites? Not gonna lie… Rebirth has been, for the most part, nothing short of incredible. The whole Batman-related line is fun, shocking, new, and has enough old-school charm that it doesn’t alienate lifelong fans like me. I’m enjoying Gotham, even though the whole gay Penguin thing seems a little bizarre to me. And Arrow has fixed all of the crap that it went through last season, with Ragman and Prometheus being personal favorites of mine. And Legends of Tomorrow? That show really could just go on forever. Let us know your thoughts and we’ll see you at the end of November for another thrilling installment of Baturday!
