Batman Vs Batman Who Laughs collectable announced from Prime 1 Studio

Inspired by the variant cover by DC artist David Finch of the seventh issue of the mini-series The Batman Who Laughs, the artists over at Prime 1 Studio have brought to life the battle between the Caped Crusader and the Joker Toxin-infected supervillain of the Dark Multiverse.


This dark and gritty Batman collectible diorama stands over 26 inches tall and features the two Batmans aiming for each other’s throats; one fights for justice and order as the other fights for chaos and mayhem. The Batman Who Laughs’ slimmer physique is accentuated by a form-fitting leather-like tunic, the belts, buckles, and spikes add a touch of brutality and emphasize the darker and more twisted nature of the character. His distinctive and unsettling grin stands out prominently against the dark cowl – promoting a sense of madness and giving off a nightmarish effect, taunting his adversary as the razor-sharp claws slice through space. The Batman, on the receiving end, confronts this manic and utterly disturbing version of himself with a more composed demeanor. Although lightly wounded, as shown by the few torn places on his armor, the fight is far from over as he charges another punch with all his strength, showcasing his muscular core from every angle. He dons the classic and iconic black and grey tunic with the yellow utility belt. They both stand atop a base adorned with skulls, bats, and bones flying around, adding to the grim atmosphere of the statue, the longer you look at every little detail, the harder the chill down your spine.

Crafting the Apocalypse with Kek-W

Rob takes a trip to Deadworld with 2000 AD writer Kek-W… ‘ The Fall of Deadworld: Redemption ’ made its return to the 2000 AD Prog this week. While the battle for Sector 13 and the wider city rumbles on, I spoke to curator of chaos, Kek-W about Deadworld past, and more importantly, its future. Looking back, what first attracted you to writing what’s essentially the Dark Judges origin  story? KW - Well, the first four DREAMS OF DEADWORLD stories that Dave and I did were well received,  so rather than just doing more of the same - stories that showcased the individual Dark Judges - I pitched the idea of telling the back-story of how the four of them destroyed an entire world. How did that happen, how might it work? I figured it was a landscape ripe with dramatic story-telling potential. 'Ripe' being the operative word! (laughs) I also thought it might be interesting to focus in on a ordinary family, to see and experience the collapse of civilization  from their point of view and

Comic Book Review - The Best of 2000 AD Vol. 3

Rob reviews The Best of 2000 AD Vol.3… The ‘Ultimate Mix-Tape’ of 2000 AD’s greatest hits is back for its third volume. Packed with an array of specially curated strips,  The Best of 2000 AD series does its very best in introducing you to the world of Tharg, and his Thrillverse. Much like its predecessors, this volume offers up an enticing mixture of strips and feature that draw across all corners of the wider 2000 AD mythos. While we do get a couple of standard trips to Mega-City 1 with Judge Dredd, series Editor Owen Johnson shows us the anthologies more “Tales of the Unexplained” side as things get a little bizarre.  Personally, this third volume has been my favourite out of the series so far. Not only does it feature a Judge Dredd written by Michael Carroll, we also have the debut of Ian Edginton  and D’Israeli. While you’d think that Johnson would of opted to include the duo’s phenomenal Scarlet Traces, he’s instead swapped the Earth/Mars war for the Atlantic Ocean, as we get a mu
