Well, there are certainly a few books featured in DC Connect of interest that people should take note of. Several featuring Punchline on the cover Continue reading “DC Connect: Punchline Takes Center Stage (and Covers) on Upcoming DC Titles”

Greetings to my Comics Heating Up family. Hope you are all well and safe. Thanks for reading this each and every week . Before we make the money on comics allow me to point out a few things. First off Deceased the Unkillables #3 was awesomesauce. I also enjoyed Gwenpool strikes #1-5, all the DC digital comics and Batman the Maxx #1. Stargirl is now my new favorite show on TV. Just love the vibe of the show, it is fun as hell. Let the Stargirl cosplay begin. Shows like Batwoman, Katie Keen, Harley Quinn, and Rick and Morty remain amazing and with the time to watch them, Pizza Hut is boss. Now lets make money with comics cause you can’t teach that Continue reading “Blind Adam’s Hidden Gems Vol. 119”
