Good morning! It’s my last week of the Fall quarter at school, so I’m taking a break from finals to give you the NEWS!
DC PUBWATCH – November 2023 Edition
Well, I’m stuffed, how about you? And not just on good American Thanksgiving staples, but also on another great batch of DC Comics, including The Blue Wall #2 which continues the top billing for the second straight month.
Previously On Comics: OK School District Pulls Comics from Libraries
Good morning friends! Are you as done with football as I am? Are you ready to sink into some news that doesn’t immediately relate to kicking but might lead you to consider some? Then strap in. This week the New York Public Library announced their best books of 2022. This year’s adult book list featured…
Titan Comics PUBWATCH: October/November 2022
It is hard to believe that there are only about six weeks left in 2022. (Compounding this is that the weather in the Northeastern U.S. has been unseasonably warm, making it feel more like early spring or fall than November!) But even as 2022 draws to a close, we still have plenty of good comics…
Previously on Comics: The World Mourns Kevin Conroy, Carlos Pacheco, and Kevin O’Neill
I don’t know how all of you are doing, but I’m sad. Last Monday we learned of Kevin O’Neill’s passing. On Wednesday, Carlos Pacheco. And then came Friday, Kevin Conroy. I’m sad. I’m really sad. But as always happens, when people pass away, we get the opportunity to share their stories and appreciate the joy…
Previously on Comics: Elon Musk Hates Free Speech
It sure has been a week! Elon Musk seems committed to making an enemy of absolutely everyone who doesn’t already hate him for the racism and transphobia, and it’s unclear what the fate of Twitter is going to be going forward. His takeover last week led to, among other things, the revocation of verified status…
Previously on Comics: Unholy Digital Dealings
Good morning! Oh right, it’s Halloween. Pretend I said that in a Vincent Price imitation. Anyway, here’s the news! James Gunn and Peter Safran are set to lead DC Studios going forward, according to THR. This is presumably in the wake of Gunn’s successful The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker, both of which were highlights for both DC…
DC PUBWATCH: October 2022 Edition
It’s spooky season! While there are some fun stories in the annual Halloween collection (this year’s is DC’s Terrors Through Time), the real treat of the month was John Ridley and Stefano Raffaele’s GCPD: The Blue Wall #1 while the worst trick was Flashpoint Beyond #6.
Previously On Comics: Collective Action Gets The Goods
Good morning! We’re coming up on the end of October, despite the weather here in Washington insisting up until a few days ago that it was still Summer. It’s hard to believe there are only a couple of months left in the year!
Previously on Comics: The McDuffie Diversity Award
Hello faithful readers! Kate here, yet again, to provide the news highlights from this past week in the comics industry, but there honestly does not seem to be a lot going on right now. NYCC was last weekend, and I know I’m still catching up on all the announcements and coverage. My go to places…
Previously On Comics: In Memoriam
Good morning, friends. This week has seen further losses to our community with the passing of Kim Jung Gi and Vincent Kukua. Kim Jung Gi, known for his incredibly intricate work and holding the Guiness World Record for longest drawing by an individual sadly passed away en route to NYCC. Flowers and messages have been left…
Previously on Comics: ShortBox Comics Fair Kicks Off Spoopy Season
Happy Spoopy Season! The fact that it is the season of skelebones, candy skulls, and misery is genuinely the only thing sustaining my miserable existence. But enough of my trash, let’s get to the news you missed. ShortBox Comics Fair 2022 is ALIVE…IT’S ALIVE!! ShortBox Comics Fair 2022 is live! 100 brand-new digital comics by…
