One Year Later: Spec Review for 11/9/16
What up CHU!?! Shawn B. the One Year Later Investigator back with another One Year Later round up, where we take a look at some of the comics that Anthony, Mel and Poyo specced on one year ago. Their specs turn out to be quick flips, slow burns, straight up misses, straight up winners and on and on. Sometimes they spec with their hearts out of their passion for comics. Sometimes they spec based on data. And sometimes they spec based off the word on the street. Either way, all their specs appeal to a few or many collectors whether it is due to them having similar taste in writing or art, or just an opportunity for a collector to flip a book and make money to “support their habit”. So, this is our weekly chance to look back at how some of our buys from a year ago are doing today.

Review: Dark Nights Metal Batman: The Devastator
by Alan Murphy
There has been a sense of cohesion throughout DC during it’s event, Dark Nights: Metal with a tighter focus than normally expected. The main title of the event is self contained and does not leak out too much into other DC titles, but if the reader wants to delve further into the dark, twisted world of the dark multiverse, or how it is affecting the other heroes dealing with the corrupted, twisted Batman’s, then the stand alone tie ins offer great insight.
