Spotted Online – Scott Snyder’s First Six Months on ‘Detective Comics’

Visit Pop Matters!

Amazing. Yesterday, when I wrote about Scott Snyder and Jock’s work on Detective Comics (Batman: The Black Mirror reading post here) I said:

The feel of the story took me back to the eighties/nineties work of Alan Grant and Norm Breyfogle when they were deep in Detective Comics.

Well, I’m obviously not alone in that feeling because in The Crowd Goes Wild: Scott Snyder’s First Six Months on ‘Detective Comics’ shathley Q writes:

It takes back to a time when Detective Comics was good again. To the 80s-90s when Alan Grant wrote and Norm Breyfogle illustrated.

Okay, obviously everyone who told me to start reading Detective Comics deserves a reward . . . and what is worse is it’s now even more difficult for me to wait for the Batman: The Black Mirror collection*. If Detective Comics is only getting better then I’m missing out by waiting.

Damn, now I have to decide whether or not to wait or just jump in and grab the issues that I’ve missed.
