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 two new titles about new characters. The first is City Boy by Greg Pak and Minkyu Jung, which follows Cameron Kim as he struggles with his ability to interact with DC cities like Bludhaven, Metropolis, and Gotham. The other series is Spirit World by Aluyssa Wong and Haining, which follows Xanthe Zhou as they team up with John Constantine and Cassandra Cain to fight a corruption within the Spirit Realm. Both series are amazing, with a solid pre-established cast that lift these new characters up. And you can read both stories in their entirety at DC Universe Infinite, when you subscribe to the Ultra Annual Level (which runs the price of $135 CAD).
Weekly Omissions- Batman: City Of Madness #1, Danger Street #10, Superman: Lost #7
Hero Of The Week- So this week is another total sweep of a week for a particular part of the DC Universe. But it’s not Gotham; Huzzah! No, this time it’s the cosmic side of things. Hal Jordan and Barry Allen teamed up together to fight it out for Hero Of The Week, as well as Performance Of The Week. And while Barry would bring in a remarkable 15 Point Appearance, Hal beat him by 1, bringing in 16 Points in a single Appearance.
Antagonist Of The Week – This week’s top contender is actually a new addition to the universe, in the form of Korg, a new Yellow Lantern that also happens to be the son of Thaal Sinestro. Korg brought in 9 Points to secure Antagonist Of The Week.
Book Of The Week- Green Lantern had the top 3 performing Characters of the Week, so it’s no surprise that it’s Book Of The Week. Green Lantern #4 brought in 44 Points over 5 Characters. Not too shabby.
