I pre-ordered a copy of Batman 125; this will be my first DC purchase. I have really enjoyed the writing of Zdarsky and thought this would be a decent read. There might be some long term growth if the story is good.

Wow! Hope you enjoy it. I think Zdarsky will do a good job.

@agentpoyo will be happy about this. Only good robin is a dead robin.

I’ve been reading more of the DC Black Label stuff lately, and I’m really impressed. 99% of my spec dollars go to Marvel, but most of the new stuff just seems so rushed and thrown together. Even the current Moon Knight series, which was interesting early on, just seems so aimless and meandering. Time to yank that from the pull list.

Batman: The Imposter, Swamp Thing Green Hell, Strange Adventures, Batman: Beyond the White Knight
 all good so far.

I would like to suggest The Swamp Thing by Ram V.

I tracked down 9 issues of this so far from a shop’s dollar bin and TFAW’s dollar sale. I’ve heard it’s great.

Batman #126 Spoiler

Oswald Cobblepot’s kids

Didn’t one of these characters appear in Batgirl (2016) #7?

Looks like that is Ethan Copplepot. The Penguin was busy.

Hell Arisen 3 is starting to move again on news of Punchline’s new series coming this fall.

As a Punchline mega-fan I am excited to see her first full gain some attention as well as her getting a new series.

Disclosure: I own 3 copies, one graded as a 9.6 and another I’m going to have pressed and submitted as a 9.8 candidate.

Nice! I didn’t know she’s getting a full series soon. I have 1 copy of the federici variant, 3 3rd prints, and 1 first print cover A cbcs ss 9.6 graded signed by Tynion that I got for a steal a few months ago.

Has HA3 over taken Batman 89 officially as the book to own?

It’s always been ‘the book’. I think the full appearance and the ‘lower’ print run compared to a Batman issue is what cemented it.

Agreed.

I also think that 2nd and 3rd prints of HA3 have a larger print run than 1sts.

I really like the third print purple cover.

I don’t think the later prints were higher. But they weren’t low runs for sure.

There’s gonna be alot of pissed off buyers when they see the real cover to Catwoman #45 1:25 variant


The unfinished solicited cover looked better (white background, no trade dress), imo
