Batman: Off-World #1 Review

    
    

Writer: Jason Aaron
Artist: Doug Mahnke
Cover Price: $3.99
Release Date: November 21, 2023

Of all the books coming out this week, I was most interested in Batman Off-World #1 by Jason Aaron.  It’s Jason Aaron’s second fling at DC Comics after being exclusive at Marvel for over a decade and his first Batman story ever.  Often, writers end up in a rut, writing for one company for so long and if you have listened to our Marvel podcast, you will know that I got in a rut reviewing Jason Aaron’s recent runs on things like Punisher and especially the Avengers.  Hopefully, like Stella, Jason Aaron and myself get our grooves back here with Batman Offworld… let’s get into it

Now that we are done with the Gotham War, we can get back to regular Catwoman things, right?  Well, in a book where the regular is having a cat deliver street flavors of Ramen through the vents of a prison, you really never know what you are going to get.  Thankfully, Tini Howard rarely disappoints when it comes to writing laugh-out-loud stories and Catwoman #59 is certainly one of those.  Let’s get into it…
