Month: May 2023

Hello Nerdy Birdies!

How is your day going? Mine has been very productive so far, so I’m pretty happy with that – though I am looking forward to relaxing tomorrow for the holiday. Do you have any plans for the holiday tomorrow is you’re in the US?

I’m here today to book end the week with my weekly comic book haul. As always, I’ll start with the individual issues, then follow up with the graphic novels.

Let’s just jump right in, shall we?

Individual Issues

Nightwing. Issue #104. Regular Cover.

This is the last issue of the current 4-part storyline, and I’m excited to see how this story will end, especially given the cliffhanger at the end of the last issue.

Tim Drake: Robin. Issue #9. Regular Cover.

I’ve really enjoyed the change in art-style for this run of comics, though I am sad to know that it will be ending after the next issue.

Dead Boy Detectives. Issue #6. Regular Cover.

The last issue of this mini-series. I’ve really enjoyed reading this, and now I really want to read Nightmare Country with the Corinthian.

I love that I learned more about Thai ghosts and folklore through reading this series.

Knight Terrors: Preview. Jason Fabio Foil Edition.

This is a preview comic for the upcoming horror event. I love Jason Fabok’s art, so I am glad that my local comic book store still had a copy of this. It features some of the character designs and some of the covers that are going to be released.

I’m actually really excited for this event.

That’s it for individual issues, so now I’ll share the new graphic novel that I picked up.

Graphic Novels

Batman/Superman: World’s Finest. Volume 1: The Devil Nezha.

Ever since I found the first issue of this in a local half-price bookstore, I’ve been looking forward to reading more, so I’m glad to have finally found this! This story is so cute, and I adore Dan Mora’s art-style.

The relationship between Robin and Supergirl is especially entertaining.

And that is it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed! I’ll see you again next week for the next one!

Good afternoon Nerdy Birdies!

How has your weekend been? I had a really fun day out yesterday, and I’ve just been getting stuff done around the house today.

As usual, I’m here to finish off the week with my comic book haul! If you’re new, this is where I round up all of the comic books that I picked up during the week – if you’re interested in a quicker summary, I post a monthly haul over on my TikTok!

As is the norm by now, I’ll start with individual issues, then move onto graphic novels!

Let’s get started, shall we?

Individual Issues

SuperBoy: The Man of Tomorrow. Issue #2. Regular Cover.

The last issue ended off on a bit of a cliffhanger, so I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next!

It’s fun seeing a character that I’m so used to seeing as part of a team, get to go and have an adventure on his own. It’s also really cool to see his confidence and self-doubt play against each other, and how they factor into his decision making.

SuperBoy: The Man of Tomorrow. Issue #2. Variant Cover by Simone di Meo.

Just, everything about this cover brings a smile to my face.

Titans. Issue #1. Regular Cover.

This week has actually been pretty big for DC comics fans with the release of issue 1 of the new Titans series!

They’re taking over from the Justice League after the events of the Dark Crisis as the world’s premier superhero team.

It’s honestly really cool to see these characters back together now that they’re all grown up. I’m especially interested in seeing Nightwing’s development as he essentially steps into the #1 spot.

Titans. Issue #1. Variant Cover by Jen Bartel.

I couldn’t resist the Dick Grayson variant cover, especially with cute little Haley there with the escrima stick. That’s a good Bite-Wing!

That’s it for the individual issues! We’ll move into the graphic novels, of which there is only one this week.

Graphic Novels/Collected Works

Superman: Son of Kal-El. Volume 3: Battle for Gamorra.

This is the only graphic novel that I picked up this week!

This is the last of the graphic novels collecting the run of Superman: Son of Kal-El. I’m excited to see how the story plays out, as I’ve really enjoyed this one so far!

And that’s about it for this week’s haul! I hope that you enjoyed, and I’ll see you here next week for the next one!

Hello Nerdy Birdies!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, and that you also had a good Monday! My weekend was very busy as I had my first Artist Alley, at Hazard Con. Vending at conventions is really fun, but also really exhausting.

That’s why I’m bringing you this haul a day late, I was just so tired when I got home last night that I didn’t have the energy.

As always, I’ll start with the individual issues and then move on to the collected works/graphic novels.

Let’s dive right in!

Batman: White Knight Presents Generation Joker. Issue #1. Regular Cover.

I’m a really big fan of the entire White Knight universe, so I’m really excited to read this adventure featuring the twin children of Jack Napier and Harleen Quinzel.

This is the only individual comic book that I picked up this week, so we’ll move into the collected works/graphic novels!

Batman Noir: The Long Halloween.

I found this at my local Half-Price bookstore and I am so excited about it. The Long Halloween is one of my favourite Batman stories, and I love the style of these Noir editions, so having this edition in my collection makes me really happy!

Batman Beyond (Rebirth). Volume 7: First Flight.

Adding more to my Batman Beyond collection, and the introduction if Batwoman Beyond.

The Joker: A Celebration of 75 Years.

Another find at my local Half-Price bookstore. This was actually brand new and sealed! I’m sad that this doesn’t include the Joker’s Last Laugh story, but I’m still looking forward to reading through it.

Teen Titans (Rebirth). Volume 2: Turn It Up.

Picked up the second volume of Teen Titans while I was away at an anime convention over the weekend. I enjoy the team dynamics here, so I’m looking forward to reading more!

And that’s it for last week’s haul! I’ll see you next week for the next one!

Until next time, stay nerdy my friends!

Good afternoon Nerdy Birdies!

I hope that you’ve had a wonderful weekend so far! How was your week? Mine was pretty good.

It’s time to wrap up my week with my comic book haul! This one is quite short, so let’s just dive right in!

I only have individual issues to go over this week, all of which are new releases!

Batman. Issue #135. (Legacy Issue #900). Variant Cover by Kael Ngu.

I usually don’t pick up individual issues of Batman, but I couldn’t resist this variant cover, it is just so cool! I love the different designs of all of the Robins, even though there is one there who shouldn’t be wearing pants but is.

This issue also features Terry McGinnis from Batman Beyond, so that was a fun bonus.

Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent. Issue #3. Regular Cover.

Jon begins to learn about the new universe he has found himself in. What will he think about what he finds?

The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. Issue #8. Regular Cover.

I’m finding myself looking forward to the release of this each month. The story really has me intrigued, and I like to see what the brief mention of Jason Todd will be each time.

That and I’m just really falling in love with Carmine di Giandomenico’s art style.

And that is all for this week’s haul! There’s something new starting on Tuesday that I’m really excited to pick up, but you’ll find out more about that next week.
