DC PUBWATCH – November 2019 Edition
Welcome to the November DC Pubwatch.

DC PUBWATCH SDCC 2019 (and July) Edition
Greetings from the other side of San Diego Comic-Con! Oddly enough, most of the bigger news for this month’s DC Pubwatch came before SDCC, and unlike last year there were no big new series announced at any of the DC panels this year.

Lois Lane Thrills In Triple Threat
Lois Lane: Triple Threat Gwenda Bond Switch Press May 2017 In many cultures three is a magic number but in my experience, however, the number three can be a bit of a curse for book and movie sequels. The first iteration of a story is good, maybe even groundbreaking, and sets expectations that the sequel needs…
Good Things Come In Threes with Lois Lane: Triple Threat
We’ve been supporting author Gwenda Bond’s Lois Lane series on the site because we believe in this whip smart iconic girl reporter, and it’s unthinkable for someone like Lois to not lead a series of her own.
