Help Support The Heroes We Love: This month, we’re highlighting some of the Youth based titles at DC. In Lieu of your usual Teen Titans, we have titles like Sinister Sons (which follows the kids of General Zod and Sinestro), Batman & Robin (which continues the world Joshua Williamson created in his 2021 Robin series), Shazam (which follows Billy Batson and his foster siblings as they fight bureaucratic dinosaurs and the Greek Pantheon) and Speed Force (which focuses on the younger Speedsters Ace West and Avery Ho). And you can read the opening salvos of these stories at DC Universe Infinite, when you subscribe to the Ultra Annual Level (which runs the price of $170 CAD).
Weekly Omissions – John Constantine: Hellblazer – Dead In America #2, Justice League Vs. Godzilla Vs. Kong #5
Hero Of The Week – The Awards this week pains me a little. Performance Of The Week went to a stellar performance from John Stewart, with the Green Lantern bringing in 21 Points in a single Appearance. Unfortunately though, Hero Of The Week still goes to Bruce Wayne, who brought in 24 Points over 3 Appearances. Bat-Privilege is such a stupid thing.
Antagonist Of The Week – And the Bat-Privilege extends to his greatest nemesis as well, with Antagonist Of The Week going to The Joker, who had 14 Point Appearances as the mainline Bat-Title wraps up its Joker: Year One storyline.
Book Of The Week – While Batman and Catwoman’s Solo Titles both brought in 40+ Points, Book Of The Week goes to Wonder Woman #6, with 47 Points over 12 Characters.
