Getting Your Friends Into Graphic Novels

Recently, I was approached by a friend of mine who wanted to get into reading Batman graphic novels, but didn't know a good place to start. I immediately jumped on the opportunity to help my friend and here is what I discovered:

1. Follow the time line from an early point
2. Continuity matters
   
3. Avoid cosmic stories
   
4. Unless impossible, ignore stories that include characters outside the Bat-Family
5. Seminal stories that mean a lot to the industry mean little to a new reader
6. A new Batman reader is going to like anything that has Batman in it, so don't worry about giving something you might consider to be a little less quality than some of the cherished stories.

I'll break everything down.

Batman: The Brave and the Bold Reboot Because That Totally Makes Sense

Good news for all the Johnny DC's out there,

The comic book series for Batman: The Brave in the Bold is getting rebooted as The All New Batman: the Brave and the Bold! SWEET! This news comes from DC's The Source Blog, where we get all sorts of official goodies, and is kinda of a surprise in a way. Little over a month ago, it was made know that Batman: The Brave and the Bold comic book's last appearance on store shelves would be this October, so it's a little strange to reboot the franchise at this point.

Either way, it's still great to see comics out there that are geared towards kids. The book is being helmed be veteran B:TBATB writer Sholly Fisch with artist Rick Burchett, and the book will also be featuring more "A-List" DC characters like Superman and Captain Marvel (aka SHAZAM!). The Source provided a preview of the first cover, which you can view below.

The Return of Bruce Wayne #4: Preview

Early Tuesday afternoon, DC's The Source blog posted a few preview pages from Grant Morrison's upcoming Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne #4. Listed below are a couple of the pages showcasing the art of Georges Jeanty.

I have not had too much experience with Mr. Jeanty's work, but these preview pages certainly have me salivating for Wednesday's Return of Bruce Wayne
