DC and Marvel showcase at Kapow

Before Watchmen will be showcasing at this years Kapow! This is part of a series that is said to not only be one of the best comics ever written but one of the best novels of all time. We all know what Watchmen is about and shame on you if you are a comic book fan and have never read the graphic novel, but just how will this new series stand against what the original has become over the years? this will be quite the event and good to see DC and Marvel coming over seas to give comic book fans here in the UK something to look forward to.

This event will be the first time Marvel and DC comics have been to the same event in the UK in over 20years! and as a fan of both DC and Marvel it's something to look forward to! In saying this lets just devide the two right now and take a look at them. I would like to now what you (the people reading this that is) think will be the big seller this summer and what you are more looking forward to, Before Watchmen or Avengers vs Xmen? I was not keen on fear itself but i think at the minute marvels best series is the amazing spider-man and with DC I have to go wit Scott Snyder's Batman but what do you think? comment below and follow. Also feel free to let me know who will be attending Kapow? 

Batman 6 review

The Batman is down and badly beaten just like how we left off in the last issue. We finally get a view of the court of owl's and they are damn right creepy! most of the dialogue is done by the court itself where batman showing no resistance to stay down as he is brutally attacked by the entire court! The images used in this issue are amazing showing batman's real dark side making him look like a wild animal or beast with fangs. there was a part in this issue where I thought batman would really cross that line that makes him different from the scum of Gotham City.

Scott Snyder has not outdone the last issue but it still a close contender to it with the way the story progresses and from what we find out about the court and who really runs the show. The artwork again first class the cover art being my favorite as it's insane and shows more just what is coming. The story progresses nicely and really keeps you entertained throughout. I think this is the first time in a long time that iv'e read a batman comic where he is afraid to come back to the villains hideout. The court has really taken its tole on batman showing not only his weak side but a side of fear in the dark knight detective.

Overall i'm still loving Scott Snyder's batman it the perfect view of what a batman comic should be about and the best story in the series. I cant stress enough that comic book readers should start to read this series! even if you are not a batman fan as I can see this going down as one of the best batman story arcs and I think its clear that we all welcome the court of owls as first class villains for batman. Like I said tho Snyder does not outdo himself with this issue but defiantly brings a great issue and follow up to to the perfect issue that came before it.
