Death in the Family: Robin Lives – White Elorda’s Nerdy Lifestyle Blog

New Comic Day – 23rd October 2024

Posted on October 24, 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 that you’re looking forward to?

I’m doing OK. My week has been so-so. I’m going to a Fall Festival tonight, and I am hoping to see some friends tomorrow night at a local market, so I’m looking forward to that. I’ve also been catching up on my backlog of single issue comics.

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

Let’s get right into it, shall we?

Batman: The Brave and The Bold. Issue #18. Cover A.

Batman: A Death in the Family – Robin Lives #4

Batman: A Death in the Family – Robin Lives! Issue #4 (Final). Variant Cover by Lee Bermejo.

I will admit, I was disappointed by the end of this mini-series. I’ll just say this – with the way this ended, if this was the initial intent, Jason was better off dying back in the original Death in the Family run.

Nightwing. Issue #119. Cover A.

The Dan Watters run begins! There is definitely a tonal shift in this new run for Nightwing, but I feel like it still picks up will from the end of the Tom Taylor run.

Dexter Soy is one of my favourite comic artists, so I am really hoping for some Nightwing and Red Hood team-ups during this run.

Nightwing. Issue #119, Variant cover by Gleb Melnikov.

We love a broody variant cover.

Nightwing. Issue #119. Trick or Treat Variant Cover by Kelley Jones & Jose Villarrubia.

Another Trick or Treat Variant for the collection. I love that this one plays on Dick’s former life as an acrobat.

John Constantine: Hellblazer – Dead in America #10

John Constantine: Hellblazer – Dead in America. Issue #10. Cover A.

Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent.

It feels like it took a while for this graphic novel to be released, or maybe I just missed the initial printing.

This story has Jon Kent exploring the multiverse and finding himself in the Injustice universe of all places! How will he make his way in a world that is so different from his own?

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 – 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!
