New Comic Day – 30th April 2024

Posted on May 1, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? How is your week going so far?

My week has been pretty good so far – things have been pretty chill. I’ve been really enjoying getting into Invincible, and I finished watching Season 1, haven’t started Season 2 yet though.

It’s time for another weekly round up of the new releases that I picked up from my local comic book store!

This one is going to be really short, but let’s jump right in!

Nightwing. Annual 2024. Cover A.

This year’s Annual for Nightwing covers the origin of Bea Bennett, Nightwing’s ex-girlfriend from his time as Ric Grayson. Turns out she’s a badass Pirate Queen, and this issue tells us exactly how she got there!

Nightwing. Annual 2024. Variant Cover by Francesco Mattina.

I love this moody variant cover. I always enjoy seeing the Bat-Family pictured on gargoyles!

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed it! As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments as well as any recommendations for stuff you think I should read!

New Comic Day – 23rd April 2024

Posted on April 24, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? I hope that you are doing well, and that you have the day you deserve!

My week has been pretty good so far, I feel like things are finally calming down and I can get back into a regular routine.

As usual, I’m here today to share the new DC Comics releases that I picked up from my local comic book store yesterday, also an honourable mention!

Let’s jump right in!

Batman: The Brave and the Bold. Issue #12. Cover A.

I still need to catch up with this series, but I am excited to read more of Vampire Bruce!

The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. Volume 2.

This collects issues 7-12 of The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. I actually really enjoyed this series, especially the inclusion of Red Hood. It’s interesting from his perspective.

The next book is an honourable mention, I picked it up yesterday, but it is not a new release.

The Official Handbook of the Invincible Universe.

I got into this series very recently. Naturally, I can’t get into a new story slowly, so I picked up this Handbook to get more of a feel for the characters. I’m really excited to read through it!

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed it! As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments as well as any recommendations for stuff you think I should read!

New Comic Day – 16th April 2024

Posted on April 18, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How is your week going so far? Are you looking forward to the weekend?

I am sorry that this post is a day late, I was having a really hectic day yesterday, and I just couldn’t find the time to sit down and blog. I’m going on a trip this weekend, so preparing for that has been taking all of my attention!

Let’s just get into it, and round up this week’s new DC Comics releases that I picked up.

Nightwing. Issue #113. Cover A.

This is Nightwing’s 300th issue (legacy). This features a variety of artists and sets the stage for Tom Taylor’s last story as the writer of this series!

There are a lot of really cute moments in this one!

Nightwing. Issue #113. Variant Cover by Jamal Campbell.

Nightwing. Issue #113. Variant Cover by Dan Mora.

I got an awesome cover for both Nightwing and Red Hood by Dan Mora this month. Check out my last post to see Red Hood’s!

Nightwing. Issue #113. Variant Cover by Serg Acuna.

A welcome(?) return of the DiscoWing suit for this variant cover.

Nightwing. Issue #113. Variant Cover by Jim Lee (Artist Spotlight.)

Titans. Issue #10. Cover A.

The demonic machinations of Raven continue, and Tempest joins the Titans!

John Constantine: Hellblazer – Dead in America #4

John Constantine: Hellblazer – Dead in America. Issue #4. Variant Cover by Maria LLovet.

I love the cover of this issue. John’s magical misadventures across the States continue.

Batman: White Knight presents Generation Joker.

I love the White Knight universe created by Sean Murphy, so of course I had to pick up the latest graphic novel in the series!

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed it! As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments as well as any recommendations for stuff you think I should read!

New Comic Day – 9th April 2024

Posted on April 10, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How is your week going so far?

Did you get to see the eclipse on Monday? I sadly missed it due to cloud cover, though I did still get to experience the darkness.

My week has been going pretty well so far – I have functioning internet again, which is always exciting, and I finally feel like I am starting to get settled in my new home.

Today, as usual, I will be sharing the new comic releases that I picked up this week – let’s get right into it!

Batman/Dylan Dog. Issue #2. Cover A.

I really enjoyed the first volume of this crossover, so I am looking forward to seeing where this mini-series goes.

I want to look further into Dylan Dog thanks to this series, it’s always cool to expand my comic book experience.

Batman & Robin. Issue #8. Cover A.

Robin and Flatline’s adventure continues as they track down Flatline’s older sister. Batman meets up with Shush – but can she be trusted?

Red Hood: The Hill. Issue #3. Cover A.

I will admit that I am becoming a little frustrated with this series – but I will save that for a separate post.

The monsters are starting to come out of the woodwork now – how will Red Hood and the Watch handle this new challenge?

Red Hood: The Hill. Issue #3. Variant Cover by Dan Mora.

I absolutely love Dan Mora’s art style, and I love his variant covers, so I am glad that he is going some for Jason.

X-Men ’97. Issue #2. Cover A.

I’m just enjoying the nostalgia of this series.

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed it! As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments as well as any recommendations for stuff you think I should read!

New Comic Day – 2nd April 2024

Posted on April 3, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? How has your week been going?

It’s been a while, and I’m finally moved into the new place, so I can get back to regular posting! Moving is just so exhausting, but the new house is starting to feel like home!

As usual for Wednesday, today I will be posting the comics I picked up yesterday from the week’s new releases – I’ll even be changing things up by including a Marvel comic in here, as well as an Indie release from Image Comics. A girl can’t always survive on DC Comics alone.

Let’s jump right in, shall we?

Batman. Issue #146. Cover A.

Dark Prisons continues as Bruce continues his struggle to escape his confines and put a stop to Failsafe!

X-Men ’97. Issue #1. Cover A.

The first Marvel comic that I have picked up in a very long time. I love the X-Men cartoon from the 90’s, and though I won’t be able to watch the new animated series for a while, I am glad that I can enjoy it vicariously through this comic!

Feral. Issue #1. Cover A.

Something a little bit new for me, as I don’t read horror comics very often at all.

One scratch turns them Feral, and now the cats are on the prowl. This came highly recommended by one of the guys at my Local Comic Book Store, so I am excited to check it out!

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed it! As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments as well as any recommendations for stuff you think I should read!

New Comic Book Day – 12th March 2024

Posted on March 13, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How is your week going so far?

I move this week, so things are getting pretty hectic and stressful, but at least I have new comic book releases to get me through!

It’s time to share the comics I picked up from this week’s DC Comics release!

Let’s jump right in!

Batman & Robin. Issue #7. Cover A.

Flatline is back in Gotham! What kind of mischief will she and Damian be getting into?

Red Hood: The Hill. Issue #2. Cover A.

The plot thickens in the Hill. The Watch is starting to come apart – can Red Hood help them operate as a team as he helps them protect his new home?

Red Hood: The Hill. Issue #2. Variant Cover by Riley Rossmo.

This isn’t my favourite variant cover, but I couldn’t resist for Red Hood.

Batmna/Dylan Dog. Issue #1. Cover A.

I will admit that I picked this one up on a whim because of the cover. I don’t know much about Dylan Dog’s character, but I might look more into him if I enjoy this one.

Batman/Superman: World’s Finest. Volume 3.

I’ve been enjoying reading this series in graphic novel form. Here we get to see more of the Justice League, including Green Arrow, The Flash and Wonder Woman.

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed it! As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments as well as any recommendations for stuff you think I should read!

W. Elorda’s Comic Corner – Geoff Johns Signing

Posted on March 11, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Afternoon Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? How was your weekend? I hope that your week is off to a good start!

Today I am tearing myself away from packing to share something that actually happened a couple of weeks ago now.

My local comic book store has a signing event featuring Geoff Johns! There was an industry event in the city that I live in, and he was here for that, so the comic store managed to get him in for a few hours to do a signing! It was my first time meeting someone big in the comic book industry, as well as the writer who wrote one of my favourite DC Black Label stories, Batman: The Three Jokers!

As there was a bit of a line, I didn’t ask to get a photo with him, but below is the photo of his autograph in my Batman: Three Jokers graphic novel.

I really appreciate that he also drew a little Bat Symbol as well – it’s really cute!

And that’s it for today’s post, just something short and sweet to start off the week! I hope that you enjoyed it regardless!

New Comic Day – 5th March 2024

Posted on March 6, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you feeling today? Are you looking forward to the weekend? How has your March been so far?

(Can you believe that we’re in March already?)

My week has been pretty hectic, but moving house is pretty hectic – I am genuinely looking forward to be in a new space soon though, it is really exciting!

It’s that time of week again! Time to share the new releases I picked up from this week’s DC Comics releases. There is only one single issue comic this week, but some other fun stuff came out that I also picked up!

So let’s jump right in!

Batman. Issue #145. Cover A.

Now the Joker has finished telling Bruce his “origin” story it’s time to get back to what Failsafe is up to! And he’s reaching out to the Bat-Family!? How will Bruce be able to defeat the “perfect Batman” that he himself created? Well, he has to get out of prison first!

Batman Beyond: The Animated Series Classics Compendium.

I have been looking forward to the release of this book since it was announced. Terry McGinnis is in my Top 3 Batman characters and I’m really excited to be able to read the companion comics to the animated series!

Fun fact – this is the first time that some of these comics have ever been collected together. My only gripe is that I wish it was hardback!

Wayne Family Adventures: Volume 3.

This is the start of Season 2 if you follow this series on the Webtoon app. This is also where the art style changed noticeably.

I love this series – mostly because it is a nice break from the more serious comic runs of DC Comics proper. I enjoy seeing the Bat Family in these slice of life situations, even if they do act a little but out of character sometimes.

Red Hood: Outlaws. Volume 1.

I will be honest, I didn’t care for this series when I first read it, but I am willing to give it another go now that I can read it through, instead of an episode a week.

I won’t lie and say I’m not looking forward to the Jason solo parts though.

If you haven’t come across this before, and you’re not a fan of Jason and Artemis as a couple, then I’d skip this one.

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed it! As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments as well as any recommendations for stuff you think I should read!

New Comic Day – 27th February 2024

Posted on February 28, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? How is your week going so far?

My week has been going well so far, it’s been nice and chill. I am looking forward to the weekend though.

I’m here today to share the new releases from DC Comics that I picked up yesterday. Well I suppose it is release this week, in the singular. There was only one comic this week, so let’s get into it!

Batman: The Brave and the Bold. Issue #10. Cover A.

I still really need to sit down and catch up on this series. This issue features a new segment with Artemis that I am looking forward to.

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed it! I’m sorry that this one was so short, but that’s pretty typical for the end of the month.

Figure Collection: Red Hood Unmasked by McFarlane Toys (Gold Label)

Posted on February 26, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? How was your weekend?

My weekend was pretty chill, I went on a visit to a local Museum, which will be featured on my Photography Blog pretty soon!

I also got a new addition to my figure collection over the weekend, so that will be the subject of today’s post!

A little bit of backstory: I’m trying to piece together all of the Red Hood/Jason Todd figures from McFarlane Toys, so I was really excited when I came across one of the figures that I needed on Mercari.

New 52: Red Hood Unmasked (Gold Label) by McFarlane Toys

This figure was shipped to me inside the box, so I’ll start by sharing the photos of him inside the box.

Below are the specs on this figure, from the McFarlane Toys website.

Release Date: 2021
Scale: 7″
Brand: DC Multiverse

Designed with Ultra Articulation with up to 22 moving parts for full range of posing and play
Red Hood is featured unmasked and is based on his look in the New 52 Comics
Red Hood includes the All-Blades, a crowbar, and a base
Included collectable art card with Red Hood figure photography on the front, and character biography on the back

I think my favourite detail about this figure is that he comes with the All-Blades, one of his primary weapons in his Red Hood and the Outlaws New 52 comic run.

Of course, I took him out of hos box to display him on the shelf with the rest of my collection.

I displayed him holding the flaming All-Blade.

This figure suffers from the same issue that is my major complaint about McFarlane figures, and that is that he is only attached to the base by a single peg. The figure has a hole in each heel for the display, but the base on has one peg. This makes the figure unstable as he is on the top-heavy side.

With that being said, I am happy to have another figure that is Red Hood without the helmet.

My last photo is just going to be a close up on his face and chest.

I really like how bold the Red Hood symbol is against the black of his uniform.

Overall, I am happy to have this in my collection, he’s definitely one of my favourite pieces.

Would anyone be interested in seeing all of my Red Hood collection together? I have something coming in that I am really excited about – I can’t wait to share it with all of you!

And that is it for today’s post! I hope that you enjoyed it!
