Just a quick email for some of the cool stuff that came out on Wednesday, January 11th, 2017! DC FEATURED TITLES After a great opening storyline by John Romita Jr, All Star Batman returns with an issue drawn by JOCK and written by Scott Snyder. This one’s featured villain is Mr. Freeze. The Justice League meets the Mighty Morphin Power Ranger in a six issue mini series. The first person they encounter is Batman, so you can guess how that turns out. Here’s a really great variant cover to the book as well. Speaking of Batman, volume one of his Rebirth Graphic Novel is out. This is a highly recommended book written by breakaway writer Tom King.

It’s a little ways out but get ready for a Batman/Flash crossover in April, as these two Detectives finally start to take a look into the ‘Button’ from DC:Rebirth #1. (You know, the Watchmen thing.)

It’s the final week of 2016, and it’s pretty huge. We’ve got some storylines ending, some new one’s beginning, and a few stand alone stories to cap off your year right. Here’s the featured new releases coming out this Wednesday, December 28th, 2016. Harley’s Little Black Book #5 features a stand alone story drawn by Neal Adams, and is an homage to the great Superman/Muhammad Ali story from the 1970’s. The same aliens that brought about the fight between Superman and Ali return to match up Kal and Harley. Encase you didn’t know, Adams was the guy who drew the original story, so this really is a big deal. RIP Muhammad Ali, FU 2016. Civil War finally ends with issue #8 this week, which means historically we can say it was a complete product of 2016. Not sure how many surprises are left. (thanks Marvel shipping schedule) We’re excited for the groundwork it’s laying though, with rift between generation, a heroic Dr. Doom, and Captain America’s Hydra still lurking in the shadows. Another story reaches it’s conclusion in All Star...
