12 on DCeased: Unkillables #3 reviewThe Quarantine Book Club articles that we’ve been doing have been great fun—and we’re definitely going to continue doing those!—but I’ve missed writing these regular reviews. Before we begin, a brief recap of Unkillables: a handful of villains and (anti-)heroes are forced to work together to ensure their own survival as well as that of a…
We’re continuing our slow crawl to a regular release schedule come June. BUT, as I’ve been saying this entire time, if new comics are hitting shelves, then that’s a good thing! Also, if I’m not mistaken, Diamond will also start releasing new comics again, so if your local comic shop opted not to utilize the…
Josh: Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club. Yesterday we covered Dear Justice League, and today we’re covering Shadow of the Batgirl by Sarah Kuhn and Nicole Goux. This was actually a book that was requested for us to cover, and since we’d decided to do some YA books, it seemed like a…
Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club, where this week we will, once again, be covering two young reader titles. First up, Dear Justice League by Michael Northrop and Gustavo Duarte. This story is definitely targeted to the younger audience of the young reader line, and really dives into some cute scenarios and…
While the Sandman Netflix series is delayed due to the coronavirus, there's another big project on the way from Neil Gaiman. On Wednesday, Gaiman announced the cast of his upcoming Sandman audio project for Audible. Here is just a sampling of who will be involved in the project. The audio production is being adapted and…
I think one of the most interesting parts about my job so far has been discovering the nuances of pacing in a comic book. Twenty pages is, realistically, not a lot of space for a story to flourish. How many novels have you read that are twenty pages long? While we’ve seen some DC creators…
It’s been a while since we’ve had a new issue of Harley Quinn but it’s here now, and a welcome distraction from everything going on. When last we met with Harley she was in Los Angeles hot on the trail of whoever killed her friend and wrestling partner, Alicia. To top things off, she’s managed…
Martin Pasko, a long-serving creative in the realm of DC, has passed away at the age of 65. Pasko, began his career in comics as a frequent letter writer to comics, and then followed that up by co-founding a fanzine with Alan Brennert called Fantazine. He began writing comics in 1972, and joined DC in…
We’ve got another week of new releases as we ramp back up to a normal publication schedule come June! I’m curious to hear if any of your local comic shops opted to go with DC’s current distribution, or if they’re holding our for Diamond to continue shipping on May 20. Let me know in the…
Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club, where this week we will be covering Batman & the Monster Men by Matt Wagner. This story is a fleshed out version of Batman #1, and was requested by one of our readers after we covered Batman: Prey. As you might expect, this book features Hugo…
Comics? On a Tuesday? It’s more likely than you think - and, apparently, the new norm for comic distribution at the moment. I’m going to have to check how my LCS in Australia is handling this, but this seems to be when reviews will be uploaded for the foreseeable future! It’s nice to get back…
Out of all of the titles that DC has chosen to release during this time period, I’m happy that Batman & the Outsiders is one of them! I’ve been singing this book’s praises for some time now, and I don’t feel as though it’s had the sales or support that it deserves. Hopefully, with little…
This Tuesday is going to be EPIC! Not only is Cinco de Mayo falling on Taco Tuesday, BUT with the new distributors that DC is currently using, new comics are now hitting shelves on Tuesday! Life is full of silver linings, so during a world-wide pandemic, you really just have to take the blessings as…
And we’re back with today’s second title for the Batman News Quarantine Book Club, Batman: Nightwalker. Originally published as a novel by Marie Lu, this is the graphic novel adaptation by Stuart Moore and Chris Wildgoose - a name you might recognize due to his work on Batgirl. Unlike Batman: Overdrive, Batman: Nightwalker contains more…
Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club, where this week we will be covering two books! For the price of none, no less! The first book on our list Batman: Overdrive, by Shea Fontana and Marcelo Di Chiara. This story follows a fifteen-year-old Bruce Wayne, who's on a mission to repair his dad’s…
This is the first week that comic book shops will see comics hit their shelves since Diamond stopped distributing new comics a little over a month ago. Now, we’re not exactly going to see any newness in single issues yet – those will hit next week – but reprints and new trades will be hitting…
Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club! This week we will be discussing Batman: Dark Knight, Dark City by Peter Milligan, Kieron Dwyer, and Tom Mandrake. This is a story that typically remains under the radar, unless you’re looking into stories about the Riddler. In which case, you’ll typically find it on a…
We’re in the final week of coverage for April’s Quarantine Book Club, so you know what that means… The announcement of our May schedule! Some of you sent in requests, so we wanted to make sure we considered and included those requests. We also received some general questions and requests about young reader titles. Due…
This week we received the exciting announcement that DC Comics will start publishing new books beginning next week! This is great news for a number of retailers who are still open and looking for something to help drive their business. Until then, DC is continuing their strategy of peppering in new digital releases, digital releases…
To say that Jim Lee is a busy man is like saying March was "an inconvenient month" for everyone: technically true, but also a vast understatement. Currently the sole Publisher and Chief Creative Officer of DC Comics (not to mention one of the most renowned artists in the comic book industry), there is quite likely a lot…
