SUMMARY:
DC Comics released this issue for October 2010. Entitled “Home Wreckers, Parts 1 and 2,” this 20-page adventure has a distraught Big Barda recruit Batman’s help to find her missing husband: Scott “Mr. Miracle” Free. Even if they can find him, Batman & Big Barda are still outnumbered by a vengeful quintet seeking their former commander’s return to Apokolips.
In “Life on Mars,” Batman and the Martian Manhunter – J’onn J’onzz combine their sleuthing to take them into battle against the renegade White Martian known as Ma’Alefa’ak.
REVIEW:
For fans of the animated TV series, Batman: The Brave and the Bold # 20 (no matter how routine) is still a treat to read. Both the writing and cartoony visuals exude kid-friendliness without insulting a child’s intelligence. Nicely played!
ADDITIONAL CONTENT:
The last page offers Johnny DC’s thumbnail cover reveals for six other kid-friendly issues, including Batman: The Brave and the Bold # 21 (with Hal Jordan’s Green Lantern as its guest star).
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 6 Stars
