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.

Good afternoon Nerdy Birdies!

I hope you have all had an amazing week! My week has been pretty chill, and the weekend so far has been relaxing and low-key. Did you have any fun weekend plans? What did you get up to?

As per usual, it’s time to wrap the week up with my weekly comic book haul, the last one for the month of April at that!

We’ll just jump right in.

If you happen to be new here – here’s how it goes; I will go over the individual issue comics that I picked up first, then I will move into collected works/graphic novels!

Let’s begin, shall we?

Dead Boy Detectives. Issue #5. Regular Cover.

The penultimate issue of this storyline. As of writing this, I haven’t read this issue yet, but I absolutely adore the cover of this one.

The Riddler: Year One. Issue #4. Regular Cover.

I’ve really been enjoying this glimpse into the backstory of the Riddler as he appears in Matt Reeve’s The Batman film.

I’m going to have to go back and re-watch the film with the context of this comic after the final issue (issue #6) comes out.

Tim Drake: Robin. Issue #8. Regular Cover.

The next part of Tim’s story begins as an injured Batwoman appears on his boat with no memory of the past few months. What could it all mean?

And that is all for the individual issue comics that I picked up this week.

We’ll move right along into the collected works/graphic novels!

Batman: Gotham Knights. Volume 1: Transference.

I’ve been looking for the collected edition of Gotham Knights for a while now, and one of my local comic book stores had it, so of course, I picked it up. I’m not usually a fan of Devin Grayson’s writing, but I’ve heard that this series focuses on character more than anything else – especially the relationships between Bruce and his family.

Batman: Gotham Knights. Volume 2: Contested.

The same comic book store has the second volume as well, so I picked that up too!

I also really like the cover art on this one. Just the little details of the ivy vines wrapped around Robin, and the slightly sinister expression on Poison Ivy’s face.

And that’s it for this week’s haul! I hope you enjoyed it!

Good Afternoon Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? How has your weekend been? What have you gotten up to?

My weekend has been pretty fun, I went to visit the National Aviary yesterday, so look out for a snapshot post from that coming soon! I’ve spent today just chilling out at home.

I’m ready to bring the week to a close with my weekly comic book haul though, so let’s get right into it!

As always, I will start with the individual issues that I picked up, before moving on to graphic novels/collected works.

Let’s get started, shall we?

Nightwing. Issue #103. Regular Cover.

The saga of the Grinning Man and the Demon Neron continues. I love this cover though, I just adore the idea of Bludhaven adopting Nightwing as their city mascot.

Nightwing. Issue #103. Variant Cover by Jamal Campbell.

Of course, I had to pick up the Jamal Campbell cover for the month as well. This one just gives me big Superman vibes.

SuperBoy: The Man of Tomorrow. Issue #1. Regular Cover.

I’ve been looking forward to this story since I saw it was announced, so I’m really excited to follow this new adventure for Konnor. And I’m glad that he has his sunglasses and leather jacket.

Batman: Beyond the White Knight. Issue #1.

Batman: Beyond the White Knight. Issue #2. Regular Cover.

The first of two issues that I was missing from this run. I found it at a comic store a little bit further away that we don’t get to visit very often. I’m happy to have it as part of the collection now/

Batman: Beyond the White Knight. Issue #2. Variant Cover.

I just really like this cover of Terry McGinnis okay?

Batman: Beyond the White Knight. Issue #3. Regular Cover.

This is the final issue I needed to complete this run of comics, and I was glad to find it with issue #2.

And that is it for the individual comics that I scooped up this week.

Now we’ll move onto the graphic novels.

Nightwing: Rough Justice.

I’m always happy when I come across older Nightwing material at comic book stores, especially anything that was illustrated by Scott McDaniel, so if course I picked this up the moment that I saw it on the shelf. I just adore the art style from this period.

Nightwing: The New Order.

I’ve seen screenshots from this floating around but I haven’t been able to pick it up until now. I’m curious to get into it, and am grateful to have it as part of my TBR pile.

And that’s it for this week’s haul! Did you see anything that you’re read before? Or anything that you might be interested in picking up for yourself?

If you’re interested in seeing where I go to pick up my comic books, I usually grab them from New Dimensions Comics. They have multiple stores and they ship! They also have a pretty great rewards program if you end up picking up a lot like I do! This isn’t sponsored at all, I just through I would mention it!

Until next time, stay nerdy my friends!

Good afternoon Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? I hope that you had a good weekend, and that the rest of the week treats you well.

I’m starting off the week with my comic book haul of everything I picked up during the last week. This is going to be all collected works/graphic novels, as there were no new individual issues released last week that I needed or wanted to pick up – that’s sure to be different this week though.

With all that being said, let’s dive right in shall we?

Batman Beyond: Neo Year.

I’ve been really enjoying getting back into Batman Beyond after a really long time, so I’m pretty much reading anything I can get my hands on. I’m looking forward to getting into this one, and seeing more of Terry McGinnis.

I also just really love the cover for this one.

Future State: Gotham. Volume 3: Batmen at War.

This is the last graphic novel in the Future State: Gotham series. I’m excited to read the conclusion, as I’ve been enjoying this series. It’s been an interesting story for Jason Todd especially.

Robin. Volume 3: Secrets and Shadows.

This is another last volume in a series that I’ve enjoyed. This is the last of Damian’s solo journey on Lazarus Island that lead into the events of Lazarus Planet and Batman vs Robin.

I especially enjoy Damian and Conner’s (Hawke) friendship through this run.

Teen Titans. Volume 1: Full Throttle.

I’ve been wanting to read this run for a while now, and I’m excited to finally have found this.

Titans United.

I’ll be honest, I only want to read this to see Jason’s dynamic with thes rest of the Titans. I’m still looking for Titans Together, the other run where he joins up with them.

And that’s it for this week’s haul! Did you see anything that you’ve read? Do you have any recommendations?

Good evening Nerdy Birdies!

How was your week? Mine was thankfully a fairly chill one.

I’m here to finish the week off with a comic book haul! As always I will start with the individual issues and move onto collected works.

Let’s dive right in, shall we?

Tim Drake: Robin. Issue #7. Regular Cover.

I’m grateful for the change of art style with this issue, also for the adorable-ness going on between Tim and Bernard.

The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. Issue #7. Regular Cover.

Things continue to get more interesting with this storyline. I’m also happy to see the continued appearance of Jason Todd/Red Hood.

The Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent. Issue #2. Regular Cover.

I’m looking forward to this run really getting going in the Injustice universe, I’m interested to see what Tom Taylor is going to be being back in that world.

And that’s it for the individual issues, next I’ll be moving onto to the one collected work/graphic novel that I picked up this week.

DC vs Vampires. Volume #2.

The second half of the main story of DC vs Vampires (does not include the All-Out War storyline.) I’m missing some of the individual issues, so I am really excited to read how this story ends!

And that’s my haul for this week! If you’re interested in seeing more nerdy goodness from me, you can check out my Nerdy IG or my TikTok!

Until next time, stay nerdy my friends!

Hello Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing? I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! My weekend was pretty hectic, we had some friends visit from out of town! So my apologies for this post going up on a Monday for the second week in a row!

With that being said, let’s get right into the haul, shall we?

As always, I will start with the individual issues and then move onto the collected works!

Dark Knights of Steel. Issue #10. Regular Cover.

I adore this cover, as much as I am adoring this series!

Batman: Gotham Knights – Gilded City. Issue #6. Regular Cover.

This is the final issue of this prequel mini-series to the video game. It’s been a pretty cool story, though I’lol admit I think the ties to the game are minimal.

Dead Boy Detectives. Issue #4. Regular Cover.

I really like the cover art for this one; I get a real sense of dread from it.

That’s all for the individual issues, so I’ll move on to the one collected work that I picked up this week.

Task Force Z. Volume 2. Hardcover.

The second volume of Jason Todd and his undead team. I’ve been waiting for this one to come out for a while now. I love Jason Todd centric stories and this one has been very enjoyable.

And that’s it for this week’s haul! Did you see anything that you’ve also been reading?

Until next time, stay nerdy my friends!

Good afternoon Nerdy Birdies!

First off, my apologies for the lateness of this post! I was attending a convention over the weekend, so I was unable to get this post up before now! Next week, we will return to this haul going up on a Sunday.

Next off, how was your weekend? I hope that it was enjoyable! Mine was busy, but a lot of fun! I hope that this week shapes up to be a good one for you!

With that all being said, let’s jump right into this week’s haul! I don’t have any collected works this week, so it will only be individual issues!

Harley Quinn: Legion of Bats. Issue #6. Variant Cover by Can Hopp.

This is the final issue of this mini-series! I absolutely adore this cover, especially the pigeons. I hope Harley is able to convince Ivy to let them go.

Nightwing. Issue #102. Regular Cover.

Nightwing. Issue #102. Variant Cover by Jamal Campbell.

My collection of Jamal Campbell continues to grow with the addition of issue #102. I just love the acrobatic vibe of this cover.

Nightwing. Issue #102. 1:25 Variant Cover by Vasco Georgiev.

Another variant cover for Nightwing. I really like the movement in this one, as well as Nightwing’s facial expression.

And that’s it for this week’s haul – not a huge one, but I’m really happy with what I picked up! There’s a couple of releases coming up in the next few weeks that I’m really excited about and I’m so looking forward to sharing them with you!

Good afternoon Nerdy Birdies!

How has your weekend been? Did you get everything done that you wanted, or did you just relax? I’ve spent most of this weekend cleaning and tidying up! I even sorted out my comic book collection!

Speaking of comics, it’s time for this week’s haul. I almost didn’t have one this week, as none of my current series had any new releases this week; but I picked up a couple of cool things yesterday that I wanted to share!

We’ll start with the individual issue that I picked up!

Dark Nights: Death Metal – Robin King. I think this is the regular cover for this issue.

I found this at a local discount bookstore and I had to pick it up to add to my collection. I find the Robin’s to be the most fascination past of the Metal universe, plus I just really love this cover.

And keeping with the theme of Robin, I’ll move to the collected work I picked up:

Robin: 80th Anniversary.

This is a 100-page special that was released for the 80th Anniversary of the appearance of Robin. It contains stories for Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Damian Wayne and Stephanie Brown.

I’ve been looking for this for a while, as this contains one of my favourite little story lines for Jason Todd, and a birthday present that he puts together for Bruce.

The only issue I have with this is that we only get one storyline for Jason, as Red Hood, where Dick and Tim both get storylines as Robin and as Nightwing/Red Robin respectively. I would have loved to see Jason get a Robin storyline as well, and maybe lose the Nightwing storyline with the Titans, but that’s just my thoughts.

Which does lead me to a question – who is your favourite Robin, if you have one? I think mine should be obvious at this point.

And that is it for this week’s haul! A little one, but I know that will change next week!

Until next time, stay nerdy my friends!
