New Comic Day – 20th November 2024

Posted on November 21, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How has the week been treating you? Do you have anything planned for the upcoming weekend?

I am doing well. I had some car troubles earlier in the week, which was a little bit stressful, but it’s resolved now. I’m looking forward to visiting a museum this weekend.

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

Let’s dive right into it – shall we?

Batman & Robin: Year One. Issue #2. Cover A.

The mysterious General continues to make his move on Gotham City. Bruce has social services breathing down his neck, waiting for him to fail to take care of Dick.

I’m really enjoying the dynamic developing between Bruce and Dick, where they don’t see eye-to-eye, and Dick not having Bruce’s full trust yet. It’s also cool to see the little moments of genuine care that Bruce allows to slip through the mask.

Batman & Robin: Year One #1 – Noir Edition.

Batman & Robin: Year One. Issue #1. Noir Edition.

Another Noir edition for my collection. Similar to Absolute Batman from last week, this is just a reprint of issue #1, just all in black and white. This art style also suits the noir really well.

Titans. Issue #17. Cover A.

The Clock King wants to use the memories of the Titans to figure out who they are and how to defeat them for good. Will new leader, Donna Troy, be able to rally the team to stop him?

Titans. Issue #17. Variant Cover by Rahzzah.

I love Roy’s expression on this variant cover, and Beast Boy as the little owl.

Dark Knights of Steel: Allwinter. Issue #5. Cover A.

The truth of the Allwinter has been revealed – what part did Slade have to play?

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 – 13th November 2024

Posted on November 14, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? Ho has your week been going? Do you have anything fun planned for the weekend?

My week has been going pretty OK so far, lots of stuff to keep me busy. I’m not sure what my plans are for the weekend yet, though I do want to catch up with some of the comics that I want to read.

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

Let’s get right into it, shall we?

Batman Uncovered (One-Shot). Cover A.

A collection of some of the fun covers that the Batman comic has had recently. I really like collecting these issues when they come out, and they are great art inspiration.

Absolute Batman. Issue #2. Cover A.

Absolute Batman. Issue #1. Cover A. Noir Edition.

I love collecting the noir edition for comics, and the black and white style works really well for Absolute Batman. The contrast suits the art style wonderfully.

Batman & Robin. Issue #15. Cover A.

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight – The Kryptonian Age #6

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight – The Kryptonian Age. Issue #6. Cover A.

This is the final issue for this run, and while I didn’t care for it as much as the original Gotham by Gaslight, I do like the introduction of Superman. This issue also teases this universe’s version of the Justice League.

DC vs Vampires: World War V. Issue #4. Cover A.

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!

New Comic Day – 30th October 2024

Posted on October 31, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

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

Happy Halloween to those of you who celebrate it! Do you have anything fun going on for the holiday?

My week has been going pretty well, and I am excited for Halloween today. It’s my favourite holiday, as well as my wedding anniversary!

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

Let’s dive right in – shall we?

Batman – The Long Halloween: The Last Halloween #2.

Batman – The Long Halloween: The Last Halloween. Issue #2. Cover A.

I’ve really been enjoying this sequel so far. Things are really ramping up – Two Face is still on the run with Gilda, Commissioner Gordon’s young son has been kidnapped, and now someone is trying to kill the Penguin!? Will Batman be able to solve the case, with the help of Robin?

I enjoy that Robin has been included in this story, as I like getting to see what different writers do with the early dynamic between him and Batman.

Poison Ivy/Swamp Thing: Feral Trees. Issue #1. Variant Cover by Jessica Fong.

Something is happening in the forest, and it is up to Poison Ivy and Swamp Thing to figure out what. I’m looking forward to seeing where this story goes, and where it will take Ivy’s character.

The Nice House By The Sea. Issue #4. Cover A.

It’s nice to see the return of the Vertigo label.

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 – 10th July 2024

Posted on July 11, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? Do you have anything fun planned for the weekend? Watched anything good lately?

I’m doing pretty well. It’s going to take a while before it stops feeling weird that I have to go and pick up my comics on Wednesdays now. What can I say? I’m a creature of habit.

Today’s post is my weekly round up of new comic book releases that I picked up. Let’s dive right in.

As a note: I will be updating this post, as I was not able to pick up all of the comics that I ordered yesterday, so as soon as I get them, I will be adding them to this post!

Let’s dive right in to this week’s comics!

Batman & Robin. Issue #11. Cover A.

After a tip from a friend, Batman and Robin have tracked down Bane, previously presumed dead, to Dinosaur Island, which he has claimed as his personal kingdom.

How will Damian react to seeing the man who killed Alfred in front of him? What other surprises await on an island full of dinosaurs?

Death in the Family: Robin Lives. Issue #1. Cover A.

We’re finally getting to see what might have happened had DC fans not voted to have Jason Todd killed off all of those years ago.

I’m looking forward to seeing where this little mini-series is going to go. Will Bruce be able to help Jason through the trauma inflicted upon him by the Clown Prince of Crime?

We also get a bit of a mystery – who shot the Joker?

Death in the Family: Robin Lives. Issues #1. Variant Cover by Mike Mignola and Dave Stewart.

I’m a really big fan of Mike Mignola’s art style, especially in Hellboy, so of course I had to add this variant to my collection.

I can’t wait for Dan Mora’s variant cover next month!

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 – 23rd April 2024

Posted on April 24, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? I hope that you are doing well, and that you have the day you deserve!

My week has been pretty good so far, I feel like things are finally calming down and I can get back into a regular routine.

As usual, I’m here today to share the new DC Comics releases that I picked up from my local comic book store yesterday, also an honourable mention!

Let’s jump right in!

Batman: The Brave and the Bold. Issue #12. Cover A.

I still need to catch up with this series, but I am excited to read more of Vampire Bruce!

The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. Volume 2.

This collects issues 7-12 of The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. I actually really enjoyed this series, especially the inclusion of Red Hood. It’s interesting from his perspective.

The next book is an honourable mention, I picked it up yesterday, but it is not a new release.

The Official Handbook of the Invincible Universe.

I got into this series very recently. Naturally, I can’t get into a new story slowly, so I picked up this Handbook to get more of a feel for the characters. I’m really excited to read through 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!

New Comic Day – 9th April 2024

Posted on April 10, 2024 by White Elorda

Good Morning Nerdy Birdies!

How are you today? How is your week going so far?

Did you get to see the eclipse on Monday? I sadly missed it due to cloud cover, though I did still get to experience the darkness.

My week has been going pretty well so far – I have functioning internet again, which is always exciting, and I finally feel like I am starting to get settled in my new home.

Today, as usual, I will be sharing the new comic releases that I picked up this week – let’s get right into it!

Batman/Dylan Dog. Issue #2. Cover A.

I really enjoyed the first volume of this crossover, so I am looking forward to seeing where this mini-series goes.

I want to look further into Dylan Dog thanks to this series, it’s always cool to expand my comic book experience.

Batman & Robin. Issue #8. Cover A.

Robin and Flatline’s adventure continues as they track down Flatline’s older sister. Batman meets up with Shush – but can she be trusted?

Red Hood: The Hill. Issue #3. Cover A.

I will admit that I am becoming a little frustrated with this series – but I will save that for a separate post.

The monsters are starting to come out of the woodwork now – how will Red Hood and the Watch handle this new challenge?

Red Hood: The Hill. Issue #3. Variant Cover by Dan Mora.

I absolutely love Dan Mora’s art style, and I love his variant covers, so I am glad that he is going some for Jason.

X-Men ’97. Issue #2. Cover A.

I’m just enjoying the nostalgia of this series.

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!
