Previews gives us a glimpse of what’s to come. Here’s the spotlight new books coming out of March Previews for the DC.
The list isn’t huge for DC but there’s a few winner books for me, either they’re potential good reads or have a cover that catches my eye.
Future State: Gotham #1 James Stokoe Variant is just a great looking cover. Big fan of Stokoe’s work. I’ll probably pick this one up just for the cover, really don’t have any desire to read it myself. The regular cover A by Putri is pretty awesome as well, so don’t overlook that one as well. Maybe this title has a few surprises but I’m not holding my breath with any type of hope.
Okay, it’s nothing new or hasn’t really be done already but I do like Finch’s cover art most of the time. As a Joker fan, I can appreciate this one for Joker #3.
Mister Miracle is back again with a new series by Brandon Easton. Mister Miracle The Source of Freedom #1 comes out this May. Let’s hope Easton can live up to the bar of standard that King did with this character.
Batman Black & White #6 has a pretty awesome looking Putri variant. We need more Putri.
Batman The Detective #2 is a new title I’m hoping gets Batman back to his original roots, being a detective. Plus I’m digging the covers so far. Plus it’s nice these aren’t freaking $5.99 and up books..
Teen Titans Academy #3 (Cover B – Philip Tan Card Stock Variant) is just a pretty cool Tan cover with Red X on it.
Wonder Girl #1 is a book I wouldn’t probably bother with on most occassions but I do like me some Joelle Jones. Her art is fantastic and her writing is pretty spot on as well. She’s one of the few creators out there that can both draw and write, doing both well.
I was a avid Legends of the Dark Knight reader and collector back in the day. Probably one of my favorite DC titles outside of Marvel. I’m hoping this next volume starting with Legends of the Dark Knight #1 doesn’t disappoint.
I can see why you are so hard on DC. They deserve it. The promotion for the upcoming Batman/Fortnite book is ridiculous too. How many retailers understood it let alone participated in it. You had to buy 25 promotion variants of each of the 6 books to get 1 completion variant. So the completion variant is a 1:150 that we have no idea what the cover art will look like, who’s doing it or if the promo code will be different or special. Retailers looked at the promotion variant and said I can’t sell 25 copies of this book, my customers want the A cover. So a smart play on this is to just collect the whole series and sell them as sets raw (for the Batman Armor) and then see what the Completion variant is about. This web site alerted me to this promo but didn’t get into the details of it probably because of how complicated the promo read. It’s really disappointing also that DC didn’t do a 1:25 for each issue which really makes the completion a real 1:150. It is not a cheap book too. The Completion Variant, if it has a super special skin, could go for crazy money.
