Help Support The Heroes We Love: This month, we’re highlighting Villains! DC has a few super-villain books running at this time, so what a time for it. First up, we have Kneel Before Zod, a Shakespearian tragedy set around the fallen house of Zod and the misfortune its members bring upon one another. It’s a bloody, violent time 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 $170 CAD).
Weekly Omissions – Suicide Squad: Kill Arkham Asylum #3, Superman ’78 – The Metal Curtain #6
Hero Of The Week – Don’t Let Me Down, Bruce. Bruce took both Performance Of The Week with a 16 Point Appearance that paved the way for his Hero Of The Week victory, where he ultimately brought in 19 Points over 2 Appearances.
Antagonist Of The Week – Thankfully, this week is not a full wash for the Bat-Family again. No, instead Antagonist Of The Week went to a vengeful Dru Zod; General Zod had a 14 Point Appearance.
Book Of The Week – It’s Batman #146. It took Book Of The Week by bringing in 52 Points over 15 Points.
