New Comic Day – 3rd September 2025

Posted on September 4, 2025 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How has your week been going? Looking forward to anything this weekend?

I’m going to be traveling this weekend, so I am looking forward to that.

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

Let’s get right into it – shall we?

Single Issues

Absolute Superman. Issue #11. Cover A.

Brainiac’s torture and brain washing of Kal begins – can he twist him into the Son of the Demon that Ra’s wants so badly?

Or will the Superman overcome?

This is still my favourite of the Absolute universe runs, and I’ve been loving Carmine Di Giandomenico’s run as the artist.

Variant Covers

Absolute Superman. Issue #11. Variant Cover by Jae Lee & June Chung.

Batman. Issue #1. Foil Variant Cover by Jorge Jiminez.

It’s a whole new start for Batman, and I’m pretty excited about it. I love the new designs for Batman and Robin, and the story is off to a good start with Batman being a detective, and being willing to question his understanding of things.

I hope that this continues to be a good run, and I am looking forward to the return of Anarky.

Batman. Issue #1. Variant Cover by Jim Lee, Scott Williams & Tomeu Morey.

Batman. Issue #635 (Facsimile Edition). Super Powers Variant Cover by Jason Geyer/Alex Saviuk.

I couldn’t resist this variant cover of Jason Todd/Red Hood.

Graphic Novels

Batman: White Knight presents Harley Quinn and Generation Joker – Deluxe Edition.

Contains White Knight presents Harley Quinn #1-6; White Knight presents Generation Joker #1-6; and Harley Quinn Red and Black #1.

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 – 20th August 2025

Posted on August 21, 2025 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?

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.

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 July 2025

Posted on July 10, 2025 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How has your week been going so far?

I’m still exhausted from traveling over the weekend, but I’m doing pretty well otherwise. I’m really excited to go and see the new Superman film this weekend! Is anyone else going to see it?

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

Let’s dive right into it – shall we?

Single Issues

Absolute Superman. Issue #9. Cover A.

Kal is now reluctantly working with the Omega Men; with so many people trying to influence him – what will he decide to do?

Can Kal keep helping people, or does his growing anger threaten to overtake that desire?

Batman & Robin. Issue #23. Cover A.

We learn the secret of Memento’s origins, as well as what he wants with Robin. Batman has found his son, but can be still save him?

Trinity: Daughter of Wonder Woman. Issue #2.

Finally, a depiction of Jason Todd’s Robin who isn’t just angry, and it came from Tom King.

This series has been really cute so far, and I love the Jon Kent and Damian Wayne corgis – they are completely adorable.

Variant Covers

Absolute Superman. Issue #9. Variant Cover by Leirix.

This cover is just gorgeous.

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight – A League for Justice #1

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight – A League for Justice. Issue #1. Variant Cover by Seba Fiumara.

The “Gotham by Gaslight” steampunk series continues with the formation of the Justice League. The gang is in Smallville to recruit the Kryptonian. What are Harley Quinn and the other villains trying to steal for Lex Luthor?

I really enjoy this Elseworlds series, and I am glad that it is continuing.

Graphic Novels

Batman & Robin: Memento.

This collects together Batman & Robin Issues 14-19. The beginning of the Memento case, leading up to Damian’s shocking decision about this future.

This new villain to the Batman Mythos has been really enjoyable – though the story isn’t finished yet, at least the beginning is easier to read all in one place.

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How has the week been treating you so far?

I’m doing OK – I’m looking forward to a chill weekend after getting a big project done last weekend.

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

Let’s get right into it – shall we?

Single Issues

Absolute Superman. Issue #6. Cover A.

We finally get to see Kal’s relationship and meeting with the Kents in the final issue of the opening storyline to this series. I’m really enjoying this run -it’s a fresh take on Superman, without having to resort to him being evil.

I’m looking forward to seeing where this is going to go next.

Justice League Unlimited. Issue #5. Cover A.

Technically, this was released last week, but I only picked it up yesterday.

The secret behind Inferno is revealed, and a Justice League member betrays the rest of the group.

The plot is thickening, and I’m excited to see what else is in store for a Justice League spread thin.

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 – 6th November 2024

Posted on November 7, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How has your week been going? Are you looking forward to the weekend? Do you have anything planned?

My week has been a bit of an up and down considering, but I am just carrying on. I’m looking forward to potentially checking out a local sci-fi convention this weekend.

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

Let’s dive right in – shall we?

Absolute Superman. Issue #1. Cover A.

Of the Absolute titles that were announced, I think this was the one that I was looking forward to the most. The first issue didn’t disappoint me. The art style is amazing, and I’m looking forward to seeing where the story will go.

I will write up a separate post sharing my full thoughts and feelings, so keep an eye out for that!

Batman. Issue #154. Cover A.

The mayor has been murdered, and the list of possible suspects is as long as Batman’s arm. As well as that, he is having to dodge the police, and the Court of Owls has a new voice. Who is Commander Star – the vigilante endorsed by Commissioner Savage? Who is the man claiming to be Bruce’s brother? Will we have another Lincoln March on our hands?

So many story threads, I hope they’ll come together to something satisfying.

Also, I love the return of Carmine Di Giandomenico’s art in a run that I am reading.

My Adventures with Superman. Issue #6 (Final). Cover A.

This between series story has come to an end, and it was really cute. I think the story following the formula of the show really well, even if it introduced a character that we didn’t see mentioned in Season 2.

Overall, I enjoyed this run – it was a good way to introduce Amazo, and it fit in well with the rest of the universe that the show has created. If you enjoy the show, I would recommend giving this a read when it is released in trade paperback form.

Green Arrow. 2024 Annual (One-Shot). Cover A.

I don’t usually read Green Arrow, but I saw the previews for this and had to pick it up. Older Ollie gets to babysit the children of some of the other heroes (including a child who is the spitting image of Roy), and they demand stories; and does he have a story for them.

This is a really cute little one-shot, and feels like a love letter to the fans of the Emerald Archer.

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!
