Help Support The Heroes We Love: You can purchase all DC Comics digitally through their digital app, or the Comixology service. This month, we’re highlighting a shared space in Gotham and that’s the titles written by Tini Howard. Tini’s created a gang-war that is rippling out across the combined titles of Catwoman and Punchline: The Gotham Game. It’s a fun little narrative corner of Gotham that has some stellar artistic talent attached to it. And you can read the opening salvos of the story at DC Universe Infinite, when you subscribe to the Ultra Annual Level (which runs the price of $135 CAD).
Weekly Omissions- Batman: The Adventure Continues: Season Three #6, DC/RWBY #5, The Riddler – Year One #5
Hero Of The Week- It’s been a minute since our two Titans of DC Comics, Batman & Superman went head to head with one another. This week gave each Hero 3 Appearances, but Clark was able to get 26 Points in that time while Bruce was only able to get 17. Congrats to Superman for taking Hero Of The Week.
Antagonist Of The Week – But not even Clark Kent can stop the rise of robotics. Cyborg Superman would earn Performance Of The Week & Antagonist Of The Week with a 14 Point Appearance. While this has been a rare feat to score both for the Antagonists, that is soon to change with the introduction of Insomnia and Knight Terrors.
Book Of The Week- The Bat-Family and Super-Family would go head to head with one another for Book Of The Week. Batman: Brave & The Bold would put a good fight with 60 Points over 11 Characters. But Book Of The Week would go to Action Comics #1056, which brought in 79 Points over 10 Characters. The fact that this book nearly had an 8 Point average per Character is insane.
