DC’s Misfits of Magic review

Adoptive sister and brother Rikki and Ross are off to summer camp – but not one of the usual ones. Nope, the results of self-styled mystic detective Rikki’s investigations mean they’ve been enrolled in magic camp at the local library by their guardians, a bunch of mysterious monks. Running the show is camp counselor Zatanna, […]

Teen Titans Go! #1 review

I think we can all do with a laugh right now. If you like grins of the superhero variety, don’t miss this latest run of the TV Teen Titans Go! tie-in, which begins with Starfire, Beast Boy, Robin, Raven and Cyborg excited to be summoned to DC HQ by the editor of their comic book. […]

The Batman & Scooby-Doo! Mysteries #8 review

It’s a typical day in Gotham as a museum guide shows tourists around the Finger Memorial Museum. Yep, a typical day in Gotham. Which also means the good citizens have nothing to fear, as brave guardians abound. Of course, Shaggy and Scooby are soon reunited with Daphne, Freddy, Velma, Batman and Robin because they’ve got […]

The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #5 review

When Batman summons Mystery Incorporated to a spooky old house they’ve been to previously, the gang are surprised to find he’s brought a friend along. The Caped Crusader is in a good mood, tickling Scooby-Doo and complimenting Fred’s driving… The young detectives, though, are a tad wary, having encountered scientist Kirk Langstrom in his Man-Bat […]

The Batman & Scooby-Doo! Mysteries #8 review

The title of this 12-issue mini-series may have to change as Mystery Inc are decidedly on the outs with Batman this issue. They show up to help when they learn of a Bat Spirit terrorising Gotham, but Batman has a new team of dog adjacent detectives to hand. Told in no uncertain terms that they’re […]

The Batman & Scooby-Doo! Mysteries #6 review

It’s a quiet day in Gotham City… until bank robbers strike. Batman makes the scene and, seeing the Mystery Machine, assumes he can bank on his pals Daphne, Shaggy, Velma, Fred and Scooby-Doo to lend a hand. Nope. The bandits dump their masks and get away. Soon Batman – with the aid of trusty manservant […]

The Batman and Scooby-Doo! Mysteries #5 review

There’s not a lot of Batman in this issue. There’s more Scooby-Doo and friends, but there’s no denying the star of ‘Rat’s All Folks’ is Batwoman. It’s a refreshing change to have another Batman Family member team up with Mystery Inc, as Batman tackles an off-panel alien invasion with the Justice League. So what’s the […]

The Batman and Scooby-Doo! Mysteries #3 review

If that cover doesn’t grab you, I don’t know what will! And it’s not a cheat, we really do get Batman dancing the Batusi with Mystery Inc in the third issue of DC’s latest series crossing over with the world of Hanna-Barbera. But first, we’ve got a mystery to solve. It’s party time at the […]

The Batman & Scooby-Doo! Mysteries #1 review

Who says we can’t have nice things? Batman, Robin, Daphne, Fred, Velma, Shaggy and Scooby-Doo are back for a second series of team-ups. Every month for the next year we can expect expertly crafted mysteries centred on two of the greatest franchises in popular fiction. And the first riddle to be tackled begins – where […]

The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #12 review

I knew this day was coming – the day of the 12th and final issue of the superb limited series teaming the fine folk of Mystery Inc with the Caped (well, mostly) Crusaders of Gotham City. Alleviating the pain, though, is the fact that this is a surprise celebration. It turns out that 2022 is […]
