Detective Comics 27 Review



Without a doubt Action Comics 1 is the most important, and expensive, comic book to ever come out. Not only did it invent the Superhero but it also launched The Golden Age of Comics and is also the comic book debut of Superman, Clark Kent, and Lois Lane. After Action Comics 1, the second most important, and again second most expensive comics book, is Detective Comics 27. Issue 27, for those who don't know, is the comic book where The Batman debuts. Like I mentioned in my Review Of Action Comics 1, The "Bat-man" in this story is very different from the hero we know now.

Batman, or The "Bat-man", was created in 1939 by Bob Kane and Bill Finger. These creators have been dead for many years now and the contract signed by Kane to bring Batman into Detective Comics has painted a poor picture of Bob Kane over the preceding years. I don't want to get into too much of it here but if you're interested in the history of the creation of Batman you should watch the documentary Batman and Bill which can currently be seen on Hulu. Now I do not have the millions to afford my own copy of Detective Comics 27 so I'll be reading it on the DC Universe app.

Action Comics 1 Review

You'll believe a man can kick the crap out of a car
On April 18th, 1938 a new comic book was issued by National Allied Publications (later DC) called Action Comics and it changed the world. Action Comics was an anthology comic that contained a number of different stories in it but there was one that was different from the run of the mill gangster and western stories about a man that had super strength and could leap tall buildings.

DC Multiverse Batman The Dark Knight Returns Armored Batman Review

"I'm Batman"


For the last few years, I haven't made many action figure purchases based upon comic books but all that changed the other day. While making my way down my local Wal-Mart's clearance aisle I spotted this Batman and for only 5 dollars I knew I was coming home with this guy.
