Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!
How are you today? How has your week been going? Do you have anything fun planned for the weekend?
I apologise for missing last week’s post – I was dealing with a family situation that kept me from really having time to post, or even pick up my comics.
I’m doing OK though.
Today’s post is my weekly round-up of new releases that I picked up from my local comic book store.
Let’s get right into it – shall we?
Single Issues
Absolute Batman. Issue #11. Cover A.
We learn the story behind Bane, and how he came to be the utter monster that he is in this universe. We also get a small glimpse into Absolute Joker, and the role he is going to play in the wider story.
Will Bruce allow himself to be broken? To become something greater in the aftermath?
Batman & Robin: Year One. Issue #10. Cover A.
Two-Face and Clayface have teamed up and put their plan into action!
Just as Batman and Robin are starting to work together – what nefarious plan will pull them apart?
I’m definitely enjoying this run, and watching the bond build between Bruce and Dick, actually seeing some give and take from both sides.
Nightwing. Issue #129. Cover A.
The torment of Nite-wing, and the takeover of Titans Tower are finally at a close. A new hero emerges from the aftermath – will he prove to be an ally to Nightwing, or another obstacle that Dick ends up having to juggle.
This issue is full of a lot of cute moments, including some find memories between Dick and Alfred.
Titans. Issue #26. Cover A.
Cyborg and Beast Boy on a vacation together? What could go wrong?
Throw in a couple of missing members of the Doom Patrol and I’m sure it will be a lot.
I still think this run is speeding through storylines too quickly, but I’ll wait and see if they’re building to something in the future.
Variant Covers
Absolute Flash. Issue #6. Variant Cover by David Talaski.
It’s all about the Rogues in this issue, we learn how the group was brought together, and how they got their updated powers.
Detective Comics. Issue #1100. Variant Cover by Bruno Redondo.
This landmark issues features a collection of short stories of the Dark Knight at his very best. Ace the Bat-Hound even makes an adorable appearance.
With all of the dark Batman stories going around, it’s lovely to see some of the positive sides to Bruce, and the things that really make him a hero.
Nightwing. Issue #129. Variant Cover by Jorge Fornes.
Couldn’t resist this variant cover, I just love the graffiti style are and the sign to Bludhaven.
Graphic Novels
Absolute Superman. Volume 1: Last Dust of Krypton.
Collects issue 1-6 of Absolute Superman.
