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 particular creator in the DCU and that is Matthew Rosenberg. Both his work with The Joker and the WildC.A.T.S. team will be coming to a close this month. Since inception, WildC.A.T.S has been one of my favorite books in the DC sphere and Rosenberg has done good work with Jason Todd whilst telling the Joker’s story in The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. And you can read these magnificent runs over at at DC Universe Infinite, when you subscribe to the Ultra Annual Level (which runs the price of $135 CAD).
Weekly Omissions- Danger Street #11, Superman: Lost #8
Hero Of The Week- This week, Bruce is green with envy as a new Hero blows his 3 Appearance tally out of the water. In a single Appearance, Hal Jordan brought in 15 Points, scoring both Performance Of The Week and Hero Of The Week.
Antagonist Of The Week – I have waited over a year Cheshire and Chershire Cat to have a family reunion and thankfully, Jade and Lian’s reunion propelled Jade to Antagonist Of The Week, bringing in 9 Points in a single Appearance.
Book Of The Week- It’s a sad day as one of DC’s best on-goings delivers it’s final issue. Thankfully, WildC.A.T.S #12 was a powerhouse of an issue, bringing in 84 Points over 16 Characters, before the Wildstorm misfits return to the background of the DC Universe.
