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 – 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!

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!
