The best book on the stands in 2022 and 2023, you can read the series in it’s entirety at DC Universe Infinite, when you subscribe to the Ultra Annual Level (which runs the price of $135 CAD).
Weekly Omissions- Dark Knights Of Steel #11, Peacemaker Tries Hard #2
Hero Of The Week- It’s weird that it’s been so long since Bruce Wayne wiped the floor with his weekly competitiors, but Batman’s back. Bruce Wayne scored Hero Of The Week, bringing in 28 Points over 3 Appearances. And one of those Appearances was the Performance Of The Week, where Bruce brought in Batman in 16 Points.
Antagonist Of The Week – We finally have a week full of villains, so of course it’s Gotham City going to war with itself. And while Killer Croc, Poison Ivy, Psycho Pirate, all brought in 6 Points, it would be The Joker who would take Antagonist Of The Week with a 7 Point Appearance.
Book Of The Week- And now we are hit with the saddest news I have had to witness during my time scoring DC for the Fantasy Comic League. The Book Of The Week is the grand finale of Jeremy Adams’ extraordinary The Flash run. The Flash #800 brought in 73 Points over 20 Characters. It also inducted 4 more characters into the League, bringing the grand total of inducted characters from this one run to 31 Characters. This book was the stuff of legends and I hope Jeremy Adams finds his way back to the West family one day.
