DC PUBWATCH: January 2022

Titan Comics PUBWATCH: January 2022

Hello again! Kate here, with your news round-up for the third week of January. I didn’t see a ton of news, so I’m just going to focus on a few big things — two that are notable, one that will make you angry — and then end with a sad/happy thing.
