New Comic Day – 5th February 2025

Posted on February 6, 2025 by White Elorda

Hello Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? How has your week been going? Do you have anything fun coming up this weekend?

I’m doing pretty well, at least as well as I can be. I am looking forward to visiting an Aquarium this weekend, and I have an anime convention coming up.

Today’s post is my weekly roundup of the new releases I picked up from my local comic book shop.

Let’s dive right in, shall we?

Absolute Superman. Issue #4. Cover A.

Lois Lane is on the search for Superman, being fascinated by him, and the stories from the people he has saved.

We also see more of the Brainiac System, and we start to get a feeling for the scope of Kal’s activities, and the people he has helped.

I am really enjoying this series, probably the most out of all of the Absolute series so far.

Absolute Superman. Issue #4. Variant Cover by David Talaski.

I adore this cover – it is just so cool to look at.

Batman. Issue #157. Cover A.

Batman faces off against “Commander Star” as the Dying City arc comes to an end.

I have really enjoyed seeing Riddler being used as a proper villain again, though he did end up getting overshadowed a bit towards the end.

Next will be the Hush sequel, which I am really excited for!

Absolute Power Graphic Novel.

I am looking forward to reading through this storyline again all in one go.

Absolute Power: Task Force VII Graphic Novel.

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 October 2024

Posted on October 3, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How has your week been going? Do you have anything fun planned for the weekend? Are you just going to chill?

My week has been going pretty well. I am happy for the change in weather – it’s finally cool enough for me to break out my sweaters!

Today’s post is my weekly round up of new releases that I picked up yesterday from my local comic book store. I also picked up a new figure, so expect a post about that soon!

Let’s get right into it, shall we?

Absolute Power. Issue #4 (Final). Cover A.

The final battle with Amanda Waller and her Amazo Army has arrived! Will the heroes be able to put a stop to her plan, and restore everyone’s powers?

I guess we’ll find out in the finale this blockbuster event!

Batman. Issue #153. Cover A.

There’s a new hero in Gotham? The Riddler is a changed man, and also a crypto-bro? So much is happening in Gotham, maybe somethings that Bruce Wayne and Batman can’t see.

It seems as though an old enemy is lurking in the shadows and waiting to strike.

Batman. Issue #153. Trick or Treat Variant Cover by Kelley Jones & Jose Villarrubia.

I love the Trick or Treat variant covers, so I added this one to my collection.

My Adventures with Superman. Issue #5. Cover A.

The Nice House by the Sea. Issue #3. Cover A.

I Know What You Did Last Crisis (Oneshot).

I adore these seasonal specials. What kind of spooky adventures will our heroes get themselves tied up in?

I especially love this cover, and the way it repeats.

DC: All-In Special.

American Vampire: Book One. DC Compact Classics.

This is a new series for me, that came highly recommended by one of the guys who works at my local comic book store.

It was just released in this DC Compact Classics format and I am excited to get into it.

What are your thoughts on the DC Compact Classics?

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: 18th September 2024

Posted on September 19, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you? How has you week been going? Do you have anything planned for the weekend? Are you going out or staying in?

I’m doing pretty well. I was away from home for a little bit, so I am still getting settled again. Apologies for skipping a couple of weeks of posts – I wasn’t able to get to my local comic book store, so I wasn’t able to post.

Today’s post though is my weekly round up of new comic releases that I picked up from my local shop.

Let’s dive right in, shall we?

Absolute Power: Super Son. One Shot. Cover A.

As we head towards the climax of Absolute Power, we get to see Jon Kent’s journey from becoming the puppet of the Brainiac Queen and his fight to regain his free will.

Dark Knights of Steel: All Winter. Issue #3. Cover A.

The Bat-Prince arrives! Pulled away from the Kingdom of El by a mysterious power, Bat-Prince Bruce Wayne joins Slade on his journey.

John Constantine – Hellblazer: Dead in America #9.

John Constantine – Hellblazer: Dead in America. Issue #9. Cover A.

(At this point, I am going to wait until this series has ended and then just binge read all of the issues.)

Lilith. Issue #1.

A rare non-DC entry for me. Something about this cover just drew me in, so I thought I would give it a go. I’ll let you know how that goes.

This is rated for Mature Readers.

Batman: Detective Comics – Gotham Nocturne: Act II.

I am continuing my foray into reading Detective Comics with Gotham Nocturne: Act II. I like the more gothic style this has taken compare to mainline Batman, though I still enjoy the mainline Batman title as well.

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: 14th August 2024

Posted on August 15, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How has your week been going? Anything fun planned for the weekend? I hope that your day goes exactly as you need it to.

I’m doing pretty well. I’m looking forward to the weekend, and I started a new knitting project!!

Today’s post is my weekly round-up of the new comic releases that I picked up from my local comic book store.

Let’s get right into it, shall we?

Absolute Power: Task Force VII. Issue #4. Cover A.

It’s Failsafe vs Nightwing as our heroes struggle to figure out how to defeat Amanda Waller and her group of superpower stealing robots!

I really love seeing Nightwing come into his own in this series.

Batman & Robin. Issue #12. Cover A.

Now that they’ve found Bane on Dinosaur Island, will Damian take his revenge?

Also, Bane has a daughter?

Death in the Family: Robin Lives. Issue #2. Variant Cover by Dan Mora.

Jason continues to struggle to come to terms with his trauma, and Bruce isn’t exactly helping. Will Dick Grayson be able to step in and be the support that both Batman and Robin really need.

I couldn’t resist this variant cover from Dan Mora. I’m getting quite a collection of them.

DC vs Vampires: World War V. Issue #1. Cover A.

The massively popular DC vs Vampires returns! Barbara Gordon is now Queen of the Vampires, what are her plans for what remains of humanity?

Damian is building a vampire army, and Green Arrow is desperately trying to protect the humans that are left.

I’m really excited to see where this series will go!

Gotham by Gaslight: The Kryptonian Age #3.

Gotham by Gaslight: The Kryptonian Age. Issue #3. Variant Cover by Felipe Massafera.

I still need to read Issue #2, which I also picked up yesterday, so I am a little behind on this series.

I love this variant cover though, it has a really cool old-school treasure hunter vibe.

Gotham City Sirens. Issue #2. Cover A.

The Sirens are back together, and it is up to them to put an end to Punchline’s game!

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: 7th August 2024

Posted on August 8, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How is your week going so far? Do you have anything planned for the weekend.

I am doing pretty well. I finally saw Deadpool and Wolverine yesterday, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I’m also looking forward to a chill weekend.

Today’s post is my weekly round up of all of the new releases I picked up from my local comic book store.

Let’s dive right in! I have a lot to share with you this week!

Wayne Family Adventures. Volume 5.

I’ve been really enjoying the collected editions of this adorable series. It’s nice to see the the Bat-Family in something more slice-of-life that explores their relationships with one-another.

Batman. Issue #151. Cover A.

Another Absolute Power Tie-In issue. Batman and Catwoman join forces to find a way of taking down Amanda Waller.

Batman. Issue #151. Variant Cover by Mikel Janin.

I love Bruce’s resistance outfit, so I picked up this cover.

Batman. Issue #151. Variant Cover by Olivier Coipel.

I laughed so hard when I saw this cover, so I had to pick it up. The swimsuit variants never disappoint.

Just look at Alfred’s face, it is the best thing about this cover.

Absolute Power. Issue #2. Cover A.

Jon Kent has been changed, and now he is going to face off against his own father. Can Clark break Jon out of it?

The Boy Wonder. Issue #4. Cover A.

Damian is back in the grasp of Ra’s and Talia al Ghul. Will he turn his back on everything the Batman, and his brothers, have been trying to teach him?

My Adventures with Superman. Issue #3.

Clark got himself, and Superman, arrested! He is still determned to help the Amazo robot, so it is up to Lois and Jimmy to break Superman out!

Gotham City Sirens. Issue #1.

I am so excited to see these 3 girls back together again – what shenanigans will they get up to?

Batman & Robin. Volume 1: Father and Son.

This collects the first 6 issues of Batman & Robin. Damian is learning to navigate his toughtest challenge ever – high school!

Nightwing: Year One (20th Anniversary Edition).

I am so excited to finally own this! One of my favourite Nightwing artists, Scott McDaniel, brings the story of how Nightwing came to be, to life.

This follows Dick Grayson’s journey from Robin, to the independent hero he was meant to be, including the origin of the Nightwing name.

Nightwing; Year One (20th Anniversary Edition). Dan Mora Direct Market Variant.

Of course I had to pick up the Dan Mora version as well. I simply adore this cover!

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 – 24th July 2024

Posted on July 26, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? Are you looking forward to the weekend? Do you have anything fun planned?

My apologies that this post is a day late, I was away from my computer all day yesterday, so I was unable to write this up.

I’m doing OK. I’m mostly hanging in there, but I have stuff to look forward to, so I am sure that will get me through!

Today’s post is my weekly round up of new releases I picked up from my local comic book store.

Let’s get into it, shall we?

Batman: The Brave and the Bold. Issue #15. Variant Cover by Dan Hipp.

Nightwing’s adventures with Deadman continue. (Isn’t is funny that these two are working together in two separate comic runs?) Booster Gold meets the Jurassic League, and Batman and Guy Gardner are trying to discover the secrets of the universe.

I really need to sit down and catch up with this series.

Absolute Power: Origins. Issue #1. Cover A.

Go back to the beginning of Amanda Waller. Maybe we’ll discover the truth of her hatred and distrust for costumed heroes?

The real question is; can they make me sympathise with Waller at all?

Absolute Power: Task Force VII. Issue #2. Cover A.

Task Force VII continue their assault on the metahumans and costumed heroes of the world as they target Atlantis. Will Aquaman be able to stand up to the power threatening his home?

Green Arrow. Issue #14. Cover A.

The Arrow Family come to terms with Ollie’s betrayal, and Roy takes his place as a leader. Also, Conner Hawke steps into his father’s mantle as Green Arrow!

As an extra added bonus, we get to see some good old interactions between Nightwing and Arsenal.

The Nice House by the Sea. Issue #1. Cover A.

The follow up to “The Nice House on the Lake” (which I still need to read).

What secrets await in this paradise? What horrors await under the promise of being saved from destruction? I guess we’ll have to find out.

I enjoy James Tynion IV’s writing, so I am curious to check out this series and see where is takes me.

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 – 25th June 2024

Posted on June 26, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you doing today? How has your week been going so far? Have you got any fun summer plans?

I’m doing pretty well. I’m going on a trip soon that I am really looking forward to! It’s also my birthday next week!

Today, as per usual, I will be rounding up my weekly picks of DC Comics new releases. I only have a small number to share with you, so let’s get right into it!

Batman: The Brave and The Bold. Issue #14. Cover A.

Nightwing’s adventures with Boston Brand aka Deadman continue, and what is going on with Booster Gold?

I really need to catch up with this series – maybe that will be a job for this weekend.

Absolute Power: Ground Zero. One-Shot. Foil Cover.

Absolute Power is almost here, and we’re getting things started with this establishing one-shot, before we get into the main event.

How will Waller’s plans affect the landscape of DC as this event progresses.

I have to admit, that I am excited about the things I have heard about Nightwing’s involvement in the event. I hope they do his character justice, and of course I’m looking forward to more amazing art by Dan Mora.

Batman/Catwoman: The Gotham War.

I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about this particular storyline, you can actually go and read about them here!

I’m giving it another chance though, maybe I will feel differently when I am able to read it all at once. I don’t have high hopes, but I’ll give it a try. At the very least, I get some very cool Red Hood panels out of 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!
