Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!
I hope that this post finds you well!
How are you today? Has the week been treating you well? Do you have any fun plans for the weekend?
I am doing very well at the moment – I am looking forward to my first convention of the year coming up next week. I’ll get to see some dear friends, so I am quite excited.
Today’s post is my weekly round-up of new comic books releases that I picked up from my local shop on the day of release.
Remember to support your local comic book stores.
Let’s get right into the haul – shall we?
Single Issues
Absolute Superman. Issue #16. Cover A.
It’s Superman vs Hawkman as the winged avenger tries to teach the “rookie” a thing or two.
Will Clark listen to the veteran warrior? Or is he too distracted by the screaming?
I don’t really care for the art style in this issue. I’m also not a huge fan of Absolute Hawkman’s character, not when he’s being such a hypocrite.
We’ll see how things play out though.
Batman. Issue #6. Cover A.
It’s been a long night for Batman – between Damian revealing his familial connection to Robin, fighting Hugo Strange’ monster men, whatever is going on with the mob, as well as doing everything else he can to keep the streets of Gotham safe.
When Tim comes to him with a important announcement – one that will shake the family to it’s core – how will Bruce take it?
Will Damian ever be able to forgive his brother for abandoning the Robin mantle?
Batman/Static Beyond. Issue #3. Cover A.
The heroes attempt to re-group in the wake of Shutdown’s attack.
Everybody’s powers are on the fritz and no-one knows how to fix it – even a shocking plan from Terry doesn’t get Virgil back to his full strength.
When Shutdown sets his sights on Dakota City – will the heroes be able to come together to stop him?
KnightFight. Issue #4. Cover A.
The final issue of KnightFight is here, and Bruce’s game with the Heart of Apokolips is over.
Bruce has experienced something that he never thought he would – peace. A peace brought about by his own son. Will he fight to make this future a reality?
What is the Heart of Apokolips trying to teach him? What is the point of this little game?
This was such a good run – I really enjoyed it.
Variant Covers
Batman. Issue #6. Valentine’s Day Variant Cover by Chrissie Zullo-Uminga
KnightFight. Issue #4. Variant Cover by Yasmin Putri.
Graphic Novels
Batman: White Knight. DC Compact Edition.
This is my favourite Black Label universe, and I really hope that we get the rest of them in DC Compact editions.
Absolute Batman. Volume 2: Abomination. Hardcover Edition.
