Batman is happy, despite having to fight lesser villains.
Pete Kilmer has been in the comics retail industry for ten years as a member of Downtown Comics in Indianapolis. Downtown Comics is one of the Midwest's largest comic retailers with over four locations in Indianapolis. All opinions are his own, and they cannot be bought with free swag. Beer and a walk on role on Burn Notice to steal Fiona from Michael Weston and I'm a bought man.

This week, DC Retroactive goes back to the '90s with Batman, Wonder Woman and The Flash, and Flashpoint continues for DC on the event front. For Marvel, we've got Fear Itself books along with a couple of interesting new trades for X-Men characters. Also new is Damaged, a series written by Eisner winner David Lapham and illustrated by Leonardo Manco (Hellblazer). It's getting some pretty positive advance buzz and is worth checking out.
