THE BEST BOOK CLUB IN THE MULTIVERSE!

The Book Club Bois discuss the conclusion of the COURT OF OWLS saga, as Batman faces a city filled with masked assassins hell-bent on bringing Gotham down around him!

Bruce Wayne survived the labyrinth. He bested the Talon sent to kill him. His family united around him. But the Court of Owls is not finished with Bruce Wayne… or with Batman. The full might of the Talon is unleashed, as an army of undead warriors descends on Gotham to eliminate every person in their way. Will Batman be able to defend the city from the ancient threat sent to destroy it? He may need some help, as the Talons set their sights on attacking Bruce in his own home!

THE BEST BOOK CLUB IN THE MULTIVERSE!

We have finally arrived! Join the Book Club Bois as they discuss the opening chapter of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s BATMAN!

“Beware the Court of Owls…”

Everyone in Gotham knows the old nursery rhyme. And for Bruce Wayne’s entire life, that’s all it was. But when a string of mysterious murders dating back decades point to a conspiracy at the heart of his city, everything Batman knows will be turned upside down. What is the Court of Owls? How long have they been in Gotham? And whose head will their Talon be sent for next? Bruce must learn the answer to these questions and more before Gotham’s greatest secret comes back to haunt him!

THE BEST BOOK CLUB IN THE MULTIVERSE!

In Chapter 2, the YEAR OF THE BAT heads to Gotham City for the first volume of Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleason’s BATMAN AND ROBIN!

For the first time… again! Batman and Robin are united in their neverending battle against the criminal element – but it’s not the team they expected. Bruce Wayne has returned to Gotham to take up the mantle of its protector, and Damian – his son – isn’t happy to see him. Can this dynamic father-son duo set aside their differences, or will new threat Nobody tempt the young Robin to the dark side?
