PREVIEW: Image Comics Get’s Naked!

Get Naked is certainly more of a long collection of Essays and more of a statement about Vulnerability, Anxiety and the other general Hang ups people have, than actually Getting Naked itself. It is also a Comedic look in the mirror of the reader.This is definitely an educated read, and will appeal to the less mainstream fans of the Comic world. This was compared to a Davis Sedaris novel in the brand of humor.

REVIEW: Detective Comics #973 (Fall of the Batmen Finale)

Batman is working with the team to formulate a plan to bring Basil down to size.
Everyone is lending a hand to help stop Clayface. Batwing and Squire are working up a plan to have the Batwing drones controlled by Azazel and sent to battle Clayface. In the Meantime Anarchy and (honestly a character that they do not name, but I imagine has a Name) argue about the ethics of their interference so far, Anarchy does not take lightly the impertinence and the hypocrisy of the other and they fight.
