Absolute Batman Brings the Brutality

Hey, something I can read that doesn't require me to read other books. I'll give it a read.

Excellent and fair review

I love when you find something you like. It's refreshing.

Alt Bat

I mean, this looks hella cool. I might have to check this out.

Wasn't aware that Nick Dragotta was the artist for this. His work on Jonathan Hickman's "East of West" is absolutely (HA!) breathtaking. I'm sold!

Oh shit, just some guy reviewing a new comic he actually likes

Are they're hiring artists based on merit and passion for the source material again?

Bruce is an engineer he is more lower middle class then working class in this universe. Seeing Batman fighting crime while at the same time juggling a job will be interesting.

DC response to the ultimate universe!!!

Yo JSG, where’s your albums video? Did it get taken down? If it did then that sucks I listen to that when I’m working

Also great video

It’s the first modern comic that I felt actually was worth $5 it’s jam packed with good material

Yeah i didn't like it and i know there are people that don't like this

I will say this about The Batman Who Lifts: No one can ask him why he doesn't just use his money to help the city. No money, only muscles that Batman wielding an axe out of his chest that shaped like the Bat emblem looks absolutely metal.

Ahhh so good to see you reviewing a comic. And since I've bought and read almost all the works youve recommended since i started watching you, this one probably woulr be worth my time and money.

I hope to hear about your take on absolute Superman

I like when there’s an alternate take on these long standing characters. Telltales version of Batman and his family and Gotham was a very interesting take as well. We need more of these kinds of stories

It sounds interesting.

It's always good to hear you talk about something Positive. The only American books I read with any regularity are the offerings from Coffin Comics, although I did pick up Turtles of Grayskull #1

The bat symbol makes sense of you think of it not as a symbol but as a carbon fiber chest protector with an edge that can be turned into the ax.

Here’s hoping Absolute Wonder Woman and Superman are good too and this whole line is successful.

You had me at snyder. Hands down the new 52 is my favourite batman and the dark Knights metal stuff was pretty fun too. However i still won't be getting the floppys because for a 5 issue series thats $25 so I'll wait and buy the book when its fully out. That way its the full story with no ads.

I get it. Darkseid made his own universe to rule over.

But come on this is just waaaaaay too basic on the dark and edgy spectrum. Plus it's not even about Bruce since Alfred is the main character.

The new spin on Bruce would require 20+issues to go anywhere cuz as is we are told he isnt rich but, the end. A statement isn't exploration of what it means to not be the mainline rich Bruce.

Party animals in the first panel they are mentioned in are generic psychos who we are told bomb daycares 😑. Most of what they do is stated from other people's mouths.

Alfred as the jaded hit man soldier would be interesting if his monologues weren't repetitive reminders of that fact.

The art though is nice and clear. And the pacing is straight forward but would benefit to trim down dialogue and panels to provide deeper insight into more important matters.

Dialogue is run of the mill corny superhero dialogue.

I don't get the hype. In comparison to what the big 2 normally put out for a staple line yea it's good. But in terms of overall storytellig quality it's meh. Leaves a lot to be desired.

If just some guy enjoyed the book I'll definitely have to buy it when it reaches my country

This basically battflect in the nutshell

Whioe i think the symbol on his chest looks dumb, and the fact it turns into an axe is odd, but i love the twist to the origin story of Bruce. Absolute Batman is an absolute win

Hold up, did I just catch you feelin some type of enjoyment?! 🤨
😂🖤

The Adventures of Batbrick

You know, I was wondering about the original versions becoming public domain.

Does that free up else world versions of those characters. And if you’re doing a different else worlds version how much can you get away with?

I highly recommend Scott Snyder’s New 52 Batman run with Greg Capullo. It’s fantastic!

It's very Nineties. All swollen with muscle and bursting with spikes.

Stop. Just stop. This is a mediocre comic at best. This is absolutely not worth the praise that idiots like Richard Meyer and OTHER alleged reviewers who should know better are giving it.

Soooo, Bruce isn't Crazy like All Star Batman this time?. And, Ammmmm, Wonder Woman/Diana has tattoos. Eeeshh 😬. I am New to comics. I'm reading Aliens Vs. Predator 1st issues. I recently read Batman Vs. Spawn, that was good. I have a small collection of comics already. Go easy on me. I don't want my wife to kill me.

I agree dude. That art looks absolutely fantastic. Batman looks like a superhero.

1st issue was cool. Let's hope we get that same energy for the other two

I'm not a fan of Bruce's origin once you actually lay it out. Born in the ghetto, dad dies during a school shooting, then raised by mom on welfare checks.

Creativity is back on the menu Boys!

Where can we buy this at.

I'll get the deluxe volume when it releases.

I just checked it oout, I think the writing style and flow are very good, but the set up isnt anything special. The gun removal is weird and so is Alfred walking around withought a mask, if it set in the 90s or early 2000s it makes a lot more sence but I dont know where its going to go in long run. The bridge thing seems stupid, the fighting is meh, outfits and explosions are good but the politician at the end and keeping black barbera gordon tells me all I need to know about how susseptible the story is to political fing around.

Ill check in from time to time but things have to be way more pittiful then I thought for this to be impressive for today

ps u ruined it

but that's not how an axe work.

As a creator and artist I don't like public domain. They don't understand the work, the idea, the creativity of a project and they use it however they pleased. Many work went well even after the original creator leave, while many others became tainted with their filth.

That bat emblem. 😄😄😄😄

If you can get past Baby-Head-Batman it looks alright...

batman is the worst without money he is just a rorschach
in a world where money rules the rich guy dont use his gifted money to do good things no he goes out at night and destroy something
areal stupid psychopath smartest detective lol idk why ppl like this character but look at this world stupid ppl all over the places

Buying my copy TOMMOROW!!!!

I don’t buy comic issues, but will buy the collected edition if this seems to be solid all the way.

[Joker coming in proven intelligent and following in the same footsteps as Bats is a twist I never saw coming!🤯🤯🤯]

I love how this Batman is more BATman then the main universe…. Batman lol.

This cape is so cool!


Can’t wait for absolute superman and Wonder Woman!
