Greetings my Comics Heating Up family. I hope everyone is safe and staying at home, washing your hands, and enjoying some amazing comic books and entertainment. I have been experiencing some rough days so to everyone that has been helping me get through this crisis, thank you. First off, Batman Adventures the new digital comic is amazing. I hope they put this in print. Immortal Hulk #33 had a great twist. Money Shot by Vault is my new favorite indy book.
