Help Support The Heroes We Love: This month, we’re highlighting Titans: Beast World by Tom Taylor and company. This Event has hit it out of the park, propelling the Titans to the frontrunners of the Fantasy Comic League and doing so with strong action and character moments. Every tie-in has hit hard as well and the whole Universe shines here. 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 – Aquaman: Through Fire And Water #1
Hero Of The Week – This is perhaps my favorite week of the month because of how wild the results played out. Batman would lose to not one, but two different Green Arrows. Bruce would bring in 24 Points, Oliver Queen would bring in 27 Points, but it would be Connor Hawke who took Hero Of The Week, bringing in 28 Points over 2 Appearances. This would also include Connor’s Performance Of The Week, bringing in 16 Points in one Appearance.
Antagonist Of The Week – The reign of Super-Villains comes to an end, and of course it could only be someone from Gotham who could steal that spotlight. Antagonist Of The Week goes to The Penguin, who brought in 11 Points in a single Appearance.
Book Of The Week – Week 4 of 2024 brought us our first Issue to break into triple digits. Of course, it was an Event Tie-In to Titans: Beast World. Book Of The Week goes to Titans: Beast World Tour – Star City #1, which brought in 105 Points over 17 Characters. Every single one of these World Tour books has set a new gold standard for Event Tie-In Titles.
