A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.

Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.

There is only one rule:*

Comic Books is a no judgement zone.

You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.

If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.

* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(

I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

There was one comic, I'm having trouble remembering which one, but it showed Batman going over the new security measures at Arkham and addressing how each of the supervillians (Bane, Joker, etc) would try to circumvent the measures and escape Arkham. I think it might have been an issue of Detective Comics or Batman from the New52 run?

Yes. Joker and Harley Quinn. Only it's usually the doctor who influences the patient and not the other way around.

My favorite is during Knightfall when

Spoiler for the start of KnightfallBane drops weapons into the outdoor workout area of Arkham from a helicopter, and then makes a hole in the outer wall with rockets.

I enjoyed the Nolanverse Bane, but he wasn't anything like the level of ruthless evil bastard as comic book Bane.
