DWM from a couple months ago. These two special variants for JLvsGvsK 1. The treasury edition of Peach Momoko’s Demon Wars. A couple late issues. And a couple late variants.
I had to have this design variant for Carol’s new look designed by Jen Bartel. And I’m always happy to have a foil Carnage variant.
These are pretty cool, they have the sounds of each character’s roar in the front cover. I took a bit for me to figure out where to press for the sounds to happen, but they sounded great. I’m not sure if they’re supposed to make the noise when they open or not, but I think having a “press here for sound” message would have been helpful. Oh and they’re connecting covers too!
So many variants this week! That first row has so much going on. Can’ wait to get to them! Catwoman finally has a new arc that I argue is the first arc in the Dawn of DC since the last arc just carried on past when the DoDC started. I didn’t realize that the Beast World Evolution issues are reprints of past issues of titles that connect to this Beast World event that I don’t think was advertised at all before it started. Happy to se Mace in Hyperspace Stories. Darkest Hour continues for the Rangers. The next Dark Droids tie-in dropped. Peter and Bruce are just very busy in there issues. And Carol and Jennifer’s new runs continue. Carnage got a new run! This is the last issue of City of the Dead.
I actually wasn’t sure what this cover was, I guess I should have zoomed in, but eh it’s a fun cover.
Great variants again for this title.
Montes covers are just fantastic. Every time I see these.
A fun window shades variant for Jennifer, even better that she breaks the fourth wall. And of course the Jen Bartel main cover.
Love this Captain Marvel “The Marvels” variant. BT-1 action figure cover to match with his counterpart. Certainly going to slab them both. That John Stewart Rhazzah cover though. I don’t know who the character is beyond being a Tameranian, but Leirix did another brilliant job. Warren Louw is just an amazing artist, JUST LOOK AT THAT HARLEY COVER.
Got the next issue of Welsey Dodds’ title. Outsiders finally has a new run. The Speed Force itself got a title (unless it’s just the name of that duo). I am intrigued by the Doctor Doomasaurus Rex. All the chaos for the mutants continues. We got a new Star Wars Visions title by Peach Momoko. Superior Spider-Man has it’s new title. Same reason for not talking about all the other issues.
Another Barends cover for Red Sonja. Cull’s covers are just so good.
Here are the Visions covers.
The first two are the A cover and the B cover both by Momoko. That skull on the third cover looks great!
I suppose I’ll get why the Speed Force got a title when I catch up on Flash. But I got these covers because I enjoy Avery.
The A cover is trippy and Leirix did a great job at the other cover.
Most of these are from the previous weeks. Though the Doctor Who volume was delayed majorly by a year. It was supposed to be out over a year ago and was going to be issues first. Plus it was named something different. Glad to finally have it!
Love that Scarlet Witch cover! Classy. Of course, that Artgerm White Widow cover was a must. I really liked this Supergirl variant.
Always down for a What If? issue. Even though I am horrifically behind on High Republic everything, I love that we’re getting these titles returning for each of the era’s of the High Republic. I am excited for Apocalypse’s return. The Gang War event has started, though I think I will wait for the collected edition for this event. I will still get the issues of titles that I already get that are part of this event, but I won’t read the tie-ins till it’s all done. A new arc in Batman started I guess. I am so curious about what’s going on in Shazam, I can’t wait to get here. But it’s basically the same with all the DC titles.
Posters this week!
And two more new movie reactions next week!
Artgerm doing what he does best. And Stefano Caselli did a fantastic job drawing this Apocalypse cover and Jesus Aburtov colored it brilliantly.
Of course Nakayama made this wonderful cover. And then Otto Schmidt did this gorgeous cover.
Here are the posters that came this week. Two will be gifts and I’ll keep the Gang War one.
This week was so light! Mainly because it’s a 5-Wednesday month. But still, it was nice. That’s also why I could get all those DWM issues and the total was still lower than I expected.
I am always excited when we get anything involving Jeff, the Landshark. I still am not even near this Venom issue, haha, well, any of these, but yeah. I am very excited to get to Spider-Boy’s title. Since I’m so behind, I’ve been avoiding anything in current comics as much as possible, so I don’t know anything about him beyond what I know from a few issues back. Yelena getting a new run is always great. The Ultimate Universe returning is cool, I would have been fine with it staying gone beyond the few characters from there we’ve see since it’s destruction, but eh, it’s comics. The Gotham War end with this issue. Supergirl got a special, the Aquaman sequel got a special tie-in issue, and The Return of Superman celebrated it’s 30th Anniversary with a special. And of course another issue of SWI.
The next Ross cover for Stephen.
These aren’t related other than the obvious theme. I want to get to this Natasha arc!! And there’s another JTC negative space variant.
The next Andolfo and Danino covers! Love them both!
Jen Bartel continuing to be amazing.
This special had a variant like this for each of the characters that rose up to replace Superman after Doomsday killed him and of course I chose Conner since his was my (tied for) first comic.
Many DWM issues since I needed to get them out of the box and this month is relatively light. And I couldn’t remember if I had a facsimile issue of that Batman issue, so I got it. The two bagged issues each came with a double sided poster portraying promo posters for important serials for each Doctor. Those are below.
This is just a special comic issue for the Doom’s Day event in the DW comics and Big Finish.
Another week with SO MANY ISSUES. I wasn’t sure if I could fit them all on the bed! The light didn’t even reach the top that well, though it was darker outside when I took these unfortunately.
I enjoyed what I’ve read of this Green Arrow run, so I am excited to get to this issue. The cover of this Flash issue is certainly a hook for me. This is the last Tales of the Titans issue. Oh, I forgot that Alan Scott’s issue 1 was this week, I said that Jay Garrick’s issue 1 was the last of the issue one’s for these Gold Age titles, nope. Amazons Attack seems interesting. I like that we got a Hallow’s Eve special. And there just seems to still be much chaos for the mutants in all their titles. Captain Marvel started a new run, I’m excited for it, and I love the new costume. And this is the penultimate issue for this run (microseries) of Ms. Marvel, which I of course wish were a longer series. I don’t like these short runs for characters that have been happening. I like a decently long lasting run that has been planned out, especially when it involves my favorite character, though maybe there will be a new one after The Marvels debuts in two weeks.
I really like this Negaduck cover. One can see why. This Wonder Woman cover is just wonderful, the reflection on the gauntlets are gorgeous. I can’t remember if this Maul cover was going to be a gift or for myself, haha. I had to get this Chopper variant, he’s utter chaos, and I love him. This Werneck cover is lovely, the colors are beautiful. The next Nakayama cover for Gargoyles is of course great. Jenny Frison just continues to make brilliant covers. And Nakayama gave us a wraparound cover which I love.
I mean look at that! Such fun. Also, Thor would be the winner. Haha.
Woot for legacy covers! I just love them. And hey, they’re both green!
Barendsssss! Yeah, I’ll have to stop getting them all, haha. But these are just so good. Also, the Flash and Marvel Zombies covers look very similar funnily enough, large grey characters and a red (or red looking) hero.
I probably will get these foil covers slabbed since they’re just so nice.
Two more Romita duo covers. These, I certainly will get slabbed, I would hope to get JR Jr. to sign these, but most likely they’ll just be raw.
Hey look, two more joyful Leirix covers!
Love these so much! I’m happy that Jen Bartel got to design Carol’s new costume. And here’s another wonderful negative space cover. And that last one is another windowshades cover! I almost missed it since it doesn’t look like the others.
I mean. LOOK.
Love these so much! The homages are wonderful and that Momoko cover is such fun!
Okay. I mean. JUST LOOK. Christian Ward does such dynamic art. This Mr. Bones cover is just so simple and brilliant. The static of him and the dynamic movement of the smoke are perfect. Slabbing that indeed. And I didn’t think I had anything from this artist, but I certainly do, Carla Cohen does AMAZING work. This depiction of Kara is utterly perfect. I would love to meet her and get it signed one day. Just amazing (Yes, it’s worth two amazing’s).
I’m intrigued by the current story in Scarlet Witch. We got another Halloween themed special from Marvel with another Crypt of Shadows one-shot. She-Hulk got a new run. I think this Catwoman issue is the final issue for the Gotham War event. This is Superman’s 850th issue, I actually forgot that, I may have to get another copy. I’m wondering how Swamp Thing and City Boy are going to interact. And I think this is the last Golden Age issue 1 we have with Jay Garrick. I think more than half of this pile were variants. I may need to watch out for that, haha.
Again, these Barends covers for this Ghost Rider run are just so good. And here’s the next New Champions variant. I really like the colors and contrast of both riders.
I just really like the cover for that Avengers Inc. The Hulk cover is just another fun out of the frame design. This CotV A cover is here just because it has Bishop and Cable on the cover. They were my favorite characters from the 90’s animated series.
So many fantastic covers for this new run!
I love that Jen Bartel is continuing to be the artist for the main covers, and I like that they are in a different format than the previous covers, though I would have bee happy if she continued with that design format. I almost missed that that next variant was an Andolfo cover, it’s just a fun cover. I think I have other covers by Rian Gonzales, so this hooked me. And of course another Leirix cover. There are 4 Leirix covers in these piles!
I love this Sirens’ cover, I wish it were a foil variant though! Another Andolfo cover for Gargoyles. And a Rahzzah cover!
It was a double Nakayama week with these two.
So many covers from artists I love. This was a pricey trip to the comic book store for me, haha. Taurin doing a great job with Cyborg. In-Hyuk Lee continuing with these City Boy covers. There’s the second Leirix cover with Hawkgirl. Look at that amazing JL vs Godzilla vs Kong cover by Mattina. Look at it. There were two amazing gatefold covers that were late for this issue, I can’t wait to get them! And of course there’s another legacy themed cover for Nightwing.
These were both variants I got just for the covers as I don’t subscribe to this title.
Of course another Barends cover. And I love when we get these type of foil emblem covers!
Speaking of foil, here’s the last foil cover of these Golden Age covers.
Spider-Man India 4 is from a month ago, the three Trick or Read issues were free and have content that I’ve mostly already read. And the bottom row all were a week or so late.
