Aftermath of Death In The Batman Family!
The aftermath of Damian’s death in Batman Incorporated #8 will hit the Batman family in three big books this week. It will be hard to follow Batman and Robin #18. Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleason created a masterpiece. This is the issue you show to non-comic book readers to explain the power of graphic storytelling.
Here are 3 Batman books to watch:
Catwoman #18 Bruce is on a dangerous rampage pushing himself beyond his limits in his war on crime. Batman and Selena Kyle have a showdown in a museum over stolen art! Is a catfight with Selena a way to work out his anger and guilt and could the love/hate relationship between Catwoman and Batman change forever?

Teams starring in Astonishing X-Men, X-Treme X-Men and Age of Apocalypse clash in a major crossover kicking off this week. Marjorie Liu, Grek Pak and David Lapham (writer of the three books) tell Marvel.com about the collision of X-Men from alternate realities.

“I think we each write our X-Family books Continue reading X-Termination Begins!
Batman and Red Robin!
Batman and Robin by Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleason will continue after the the death of Damian. If you didn’t pick up Batman and Robin #18 I urge you to run to your comic book shop now. I’ve loved this series but this Robin Requiem issue is a masterpiece. This is a comic book you show to non-comic readers to demonstrate the power of graphic storytelling.
The series will continue with a monthly title change to reflect that issue’s guest star. DC shared a preview of Batman and Red Robin #19 by Tomasi and Gleason. Tim Drake is back in the Batcave in the aftermath of Damian’s death but don’t expect this reunion to be all talk – look who else Continue reading Batman and Red Robin!
Colossus in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST
Director Bryan Singer revealed Daniel Cudmore will return as Colossus in X-Men: Days of Future Past. The director also revealed Boo Boo Stewart and Fan BingBing have joined the cast via Twitter.
Cudmore played the X-Man who can transform his body into organic steel in X2: X-Men United and X3: The Last Stand. Cudmore played a role in The Twilight Saga. In the classic comic book storyline the film is based on Colossus married Kitty Pryde. In the films Kitty was part of a romantic triangle with Iceman (Shawn Ashmore) and Rogue (Anna Paquin.)
It was revealed earlier that BingBing will play Blink. No word on which character Stewart will play but when I saw his picture my brain jumped to (young Nightcrawler, the original Thunderbird- John Proudstar, or his brother Warparth – James Proudstar)
The director’s Tweet showed the cast list and mentioned the awards among the cast and ended with “now let’s blow —- up!”
Looks like we’ll see a famous Colossus/Wolverine fastball special in the next film!
