THE PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS on BRAVE AND THE BOLD #27
September 29, 2009
Though Comics Guy has been underwhelmed with DC's team-up title "The Brave and the Bold" lately, he was looking forward to the debut of superstar J. Michael Straczynski ("Babylon 5") on issue No. 27, starring Batman and Dial H For Hero. It is one of the most pleasant surprises in comics I have experienced this year.
Straczynski makes Dial H For Hero compelling, the overused Joker actually seem a little fresh and Batman almost touching.
It is one of the best comics I have read this year - and proves that Straczynski not only knows how to spin a helluva story but write dialogue as well or better than most in the business.
