Mr. Terrific goes Super Saiyon lol

Great ish, very tired tonight tho....

Beautiful. The trademark Poelgeest sadness is in its bones. The sombre vibes of Precious Metal and Little Bird are felt, but this is its own beast.

I still can't believe it exists.

Thank you DC!

Difficult to express the level of appreciation for getting doom patrol, deadman, demon and Jonah hex, all in the same year. Outside of getting Wesley Dodds, I’m not sure what else I can ask for from DC.

this was a strong debut issue, I like Negative Man's characterization. This is an issue I will be re-reading again to appreciate it more

This was a great start that really fits the tone of a Doom Patrol book while not trying to be a cheap Morrison rip off which has plagued all the mediocre to bad Doom Patrol books since Gerrard Way's run. Poelgeest's writing and Henrichon's art are both great and feel genuine and authentic.

BEST NEXT LEVEL ENTRY SO FAR

As a Doom Patrol fan I am extremely happy with this new Next Level issue. Niko Henrichon' expressive wacky art style is a perfect blend with Darcy Van Poelgeest' brilliant writing.

Despite this being a new entry, I felt right back into the world of DP with my favorite crew of characters. Wondering where some other characters are but hopefully thi s will be covered in later issues. Nonetheless Cliff, Rita, and Larry here they are and Darcy has no problem bringing out why I love them so much!!!

This issue was funny as hell, aliens abducting cats made me laugh so hard especially since recently I rescued a kitten so what are the odds that this concept shows up in my favorite DC family of DP?!

I love how they are at a low point, "We use to be heroes" as Larry says. Cliff always makes me laugh and I actually love this big bulky design in jeans that Niko gave Cliff I think it adds to his personality, and Rita has a more sharp modern look but it still feels like her, and Larry... Well he's still Larry!!! And I love Larry!!!

Absolute banger here, this deserves the title "Next Level" unlike some of the other mid stuff claiming that title....

Can't wait for more from this team!!!!!more

Another banger here, my only beef is it's too fast a read but that's just me so I won't deduct a point. I want more of this, more detail, more heavy story. I am really loving this more, the art grew on me and the writing is to the point ☝️. Dialogue feels very genuine and I love this whole Basil Clayface Detective stuff I think its funny. Also love how Doyle explains how Basil Karlo is a made up n ame and his real name is Matt Hagen. He took this name from his father who used that acting name. Adds to the lore for the new Clayface movie that I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS WEEK!! HAIL CLAYFACE!!more

OMG YES!!! NOW WERE TALKIN'!!

This was AMAZING! This Bad Seeds event has been 50x more interesting and fun than the actual mainline Batman story by Fraction.

The action in here was PEAK. BEST OF BATMAN IMO.

You want to see him take on an army of armed goons working for Savage like you imagine Batman would do it, artist Matteo Scalera DELIVERS LIKE A BOSS LIKE NO ON E ELSE.

I was laughing so hard too when the Gotham police were so happy to see Batman take down Vandal's goons, the funny faces Scalera gave them while reacting to the peak action was freaking hilarious 😂

This is HOW YOU DO BATMAN!!! THANK YOU!!!

And lately when I read Batman's dialogue in the comics I hear Diedrich Bader's voice and for some reason I have grown to make his voice the official Batman voice in my head. His voice is not too serious just enough dark, while somehow at the same time has a touch of humor in it. For me this is the perfect mix as I love Adam West and Ben Afflecks. more

I first thought this was regular artist Jimenez, but it’s Matteo Scalera. I know I have seen his name before somewhere, but I can’t connect it to anything I read. Now this will probably never happen again, as his art in this issue is absolutely phenomenal. The layouts are bold and dynamic and reminiscent of Sean Gordon Murphy sometimes, while not being a copy. The colors by Tomeu Morey complement the lines perfectly.
The only issue I have with Batman 13, is that it’s too short.

Oh, and don’t worry about this being part of the Bad Seeds crossover. I haven’t read Bad Seeds: Sunset 1 and it only seems to have a minimal impact on this issue.more

Wow great end, a bit anti-climatic with the defeat of Kryl-ux but that is PKJ fault for over complicating the story imo. Nonetheless I'm happy that the Supertwins got a good ending to be with Superman and then go off on adventures with Phyrros and older Kara.

I love this premise and hope PKJ one day makes a solo series focused on the super twins with the style of his Action Comics run. Hey PKJ, if you do a Super Twins comic, please have Eddy Barrows work with you again...more

Great artwork and a nice slice of the core of Basil Carlo. Fun to read after watching the latest Clayface movie!!!

Slight improvement but most likely because this Hidden City NPC side quest is finally over?

What a snooze fest...

It just gets worse after each issue. The dialogue is so bloated and pointless it makes Tom King look really good in comparison. It's such a slog to get through this, I already preordered and received the rest of the series because I love Campbell's artwork and Zatanna but this is so terrible I can't lie to myself and give this a decent score.

The book feels like it belongs absolutely n o where in the DC universe, I don't care about any of these characters, the world is generic RPG game levels of blah. I'm going to force myself to finish reading what I have since I payed $ for it, but the only value these Zatanna comics will have is the cover artwork and some of the interior work but again I've seen better in Superman 2023.

The first series of Campbells Zatanna was good at least not great, but this is horrible. Hope there's a breaking point where it does a 180 but doesn't seem like that will happen...more

Abysmal and Painful to Wade through, the writing is atrocious and I have no idea what the hey is going throughout this ish. The only reason why I am avoiding a complete 1 out of 10 is at least Campell's art is good but honestly his work was better in Superman 2023 than this. Some of his big one or two page splashes look all over the place and I don't know what the image is suppose to convey...

I read this last week and pulled up issue #3 today and literally already forgot what the heck happened in issue #2.

Some good stuff not Jamal's best art compared to the last Zatanna series he worked on. Seems like hes trying to add more to the story but it feels like something out of the Baldurs Gate comics from 2017
