DC Weekly Review: November 24, 2023 (Week 47)

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- Justice League Vs. Godzilla Vs. Kong #2, Justice Society #7

Hero Of The Week- We return back to normal after a Bat-Light November, closing out the month with Bruce Wayne taking both Hero Of The Week (26 Points over 3 Appearances) which includes the 15 Point Performance Of The Week.

Antagonist Of The Week – We turn to an alternate reality to find our Antagonist Of The Week this time. Magog, the antagonistic force of Kingdom Come, enjoys his teenaged days by bringing in 9 Points in a singular Appearance.

Book Of The Week- This week’s Book Of The Week is Titans #5, which brings in 55 Points over 10 Characters. This makes the average 5 Points per Character for the issue, which is quite fitting for the Fifth issue of a Series.
