Slade still in Arkham, we got the Nightwings group of good samaritans, I think that Superman in Sideways was another universe’s one, but I can’t remember, The Flood had come in the Drowned Earth event, Hal Jordan got a new run, Victor got a body in Runaways, Marvel Knights got a new run for a little bit for its 20th Anniversary, the Asgardians of the Galaxy were dealing with space zombies, Hulk had literally fallen to pieces, Doctor Strange was quite confused, and more from Infinity Wars, Spidergeddon, Death of the Inhumans and that fun Champions arc.

Variants and DWM. If you hadn’t guess yet, yes, they killed Lockjaw in issue 1 of Death of the Inhumans. The Heroes in Crisis variant covers showed moments of characters defeats of deaths as depicted as a report on said character.

Another dose of What If…? classic and modern, OM Hawkeye tried to get his last mission done before he went blind, Tony was dealing with his brother Arno, The White Queen got an X-Men Black issue, more Infinity Warps, Spidergeddon, Extermination, and Witching Hour craziness, The Drowned Earth event had begun, Heroes in Crisis issue 2, and Jessica Jones got a volume for a previously digital-only miniseries.

This time of Wonder Woman variants was amazing, love them! All Artgerm covers are magic, as seen on that Black Cat cover.

Love the Batman Beyond foil cover!

Two-Face working with Batman and Gordon, we got an Old Lady Harley miniseries, chaos all over DC, Darkseid planning things in JL Odyssey, Hecate coming for everyone’s magic Wonder Woman, the beginning of the Drowned event in Titans, another What If…? classic and new story, a raptor and a Tyrannosaurs having good times, Daredevil confronts the Punisher while he’s on the run, Moon Knight had his 200th issue, Logan’s return continued, Juggernaut got an X-Men Black issue, Infinity Warps continued and Spidergeddon gave us Spider-Girls #1 and a new run for Gwen having been newly named Ghost-Spider.

The foil covers will follow.

In my tweet for these foil covers I said Batgirl slightly takes the lead over Action Comics as my fave cover of the week. Though, I did have some in my box still. The Batman Beyond one was pretty cool, as you’ll see.
