It's....Not New Comics Day!

This is a day late, but rest assured I still got comics this week. Brightest Day got off to a solid start, and it looks like I'll have a busy comics schedule again from here on out. This is what I grabbed this week:

Booster Gold #31
Fables #94
Batman #698
Secret Six #20
Adventure Comics #10
Brightest Day #0
Flash #1
Unwritten #12
X-Factor Forever #2
Black Widow #1

If you're here for gifs, fear not, they will be coming soon.

New Comics Day!

It's a little bit of a slow week for me, but I've still got plenty of good stuff to read, so I have no complaints. With Flash, Brightest Day, and the Zatanna ongoing coming soon, I'm going to have plenty of new stuff going on soon and it gives me time to read some of the stuff I've been meaning to get to.

Batman And Robin #11
Red Robin #11
JSA All Stars #5
Superman Last Stand Of New Krypton #2
Flash Secret Files And Origins 2010 #1
Buffy The Vampire Slayer #34

New Comics Day!

Today marks the end of Blackest Night, so it's a pretty exciting new comics day for me. I feel like I wound up falling behind in almost every comic I read because of it, but it was worth it. I've actually already read Blackest Night #8, but here's everything else I'll be reading this week.

Detective Comics #863
Jack Of Fables #44
Teen Titans  #81
Justice League Of America #43 (I haven't read a JLA comic in quite some time, but I wanted to check out the new lineup)
Justice Society Of America #37
Adventure Comics #9 
Gotham City Sirens #10
Blackest Night #8
X-Force  #25

CAVEMAN BATMAN

Over at the official DC Universe blog, there are some images from the upcoming Return of Bruce Wayne, and they're pretty exciting stuff.

Looking at these makes me think of the goofy fantasies I had about Bruce making a dinosaur into his Batmobile when they first showed him in the cave with anthro, and seeing how close they may be to coming true makes me want to jump up and down.

I know that there are some people who are skeptical about time-traveling Batman being canon (that's not my Batman), but man, comics are supposed to be fun, and I can't think of many things more fun than Caveman Batman, Cowboy Batman, or especially Noir Private Investigator Batman.

I have really been enjoying Dick as Batman, and I wish we had a little longer to see him trying to find his footing in the position, but at the same time, I can't wait for this. I can't wait to see Tim finally be proven right, I can't wait to see the way Bruce reacts to everything that's happened while he was gone, and I especially can't wait to see what he's been up to for all this time. For a good while now, I have felt so excited for things to come in comics, from Blackest Night and the Batman Reborn titles, and now there's this and Brightest Day, and the Heroic Age over at Marvel. It is a good time for comics. I'm happy to be a fan.

Superheroes and Villians as Mr. Men

Check out this great post over at Bite that features a wide variety of comic characters drawn in the style of the Mr. Men books. The pictures are the work of artist Seven Hundred, and feature a huge selection of Marvel and DC characters (plus a few from Kick-ass). I especially like the Watchmen set.

It's New Comics Day!

It's not a bad week for me. I'm always excited for Power Girl and from what I can tell the newest issue of Green Lantern has some pretty huge stuff in it. Here's the full list of what I'll be grabbing this week:

BATMAN: STREETS OF GOTHAM #10
GREEN LANTERN #52
JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA #37
POWER GIRL #10
SUPERMAN #698
SUPERMAN/BATMAN #70
AIR #19
CAPTAIN AMERICA #604
UNCANNY X-MEN #522 (I don't normally read this, but Kitty)
X-FACTOR #203

I kind of want to try getting into Thunderbolts, but it seems like it'd be better to wait for Siege to be over. I still have plenty to read, so, as Owlman would say, it doesn't matter.

A Look at Batman: Under the Red Hood

It feels like Crisis on Two Earths just came out, but a few images from the next DC Animated movie, Batman: Under the Red Hood, have already surfaced. That's not to say that I'm complaining, because I am pretty psyched about this one.

I am not the biggest fan of Jason Todd, but I've been enjoying him a lot more in Batman and Robin, and I'm confident I'll enjoy him here too. DC Animated stuff is pretty much always fantastic and the voice cast looks really good. Jensen Ackles should do a great job with Jason Todd, and I am so excited to hear Neil Patrick Harris voicing Nightwing. I'm always going to wish that Kevin Conroy was voicing Batman, but Bruce Greenwood is a solid choice, and a definite step up from William Baldwin.

This one comes out July 27th, and apparently a pretty nice looking Red Hood figure will come out with it.

And in case you missed it on the cover, there'll be a Jonah Hex short too. I can't wait.
