Animal Man #1
Continuing through the journey of DC’s New 52, we’ll be looking at a highly anticipated title, Animal Man.

Today we’re looking at another comic book of the Batman family, Batwing. Otherwise known as Detective David Zavimbe from the Democratic Republic of Congo, is obviously the “Batman of Africa”. The character first appeared in comic books earlier this year as part of the “Batman, Incorporated” global concept, so we’re talking about a relatively new concept here, unlike the other titles...
