Immortal Hulk 44

Spoiler

Holy shyt the U-Foes were kicking Hulks ass
Leader and the One below All combined at the end

Daredevil 28 was so damn great

ASM 61 Spidey's new suit is cool and I like how it

ties-into the JJ and Peter's new relationship. That arc where they had the podcast was probably my favorite of the whole run.

Eternals 3 was pretty interesting

I have always hated how The U-Foes were treated as jobbers considering how formidable their powers are.

He seemed to be able to see through The Morrigan's enchantment which came as a surprise to him and everyone else.

I thought he had BEEN able to see thru magic during his days in “Wolverine And The X-Men”?

They were acting like it was a change. Unless Chuck was talking about the way he's like a human microscope which is also something we have seen him doing for a while.

Imma just chalk it up as yet another example of how Magneto and Xavier don't know what the hell is happening on Krakoa.

Touch carbon nanotubules with a magnetic surface and see what happens. This was dumb. This fight was dumb. This event was terrible. They should feel terrible.

SNEAK PEEK: Preview of DC Comics' Superman: Red and Blue #1, On Sale 3/16! - Comic Watch

I like the idea of a "Tales of Superman" style book that lets creators tell the Superman story they have wanted to tell without having it be a part of any ongoing continuity.
And the folks they have lined up for this are top notch.

Batman: Reptilian
Garth Ennis and Liam Sharp Bring A New Level of Terror to Gotham City in This Six-Issue DC Black Label Limited Series​

​

In Gotham City, either Batman or Killer Croc were the two most dangerous things lurking in the city’s shadows.

On June 22, that all changes.

A new predator makes Gotham City its hunting ground, courtesy of Garth Ennis, co-creator of Preacher and The Boys and artist Liam Sharp (The Green Lantern, The Brave and the Bold: Batman & Wonder Woman) in an all-new six issue limited series, Batman: Reptilian.

Gotham City is filled with murderous creatures who stalk the shadows--foul villains with murderous impulses who strike fear into the hearts of every man, woman, and child in the city. But what strikes fear into the hearts of those who terrorize the city? It used to be Batman, but something far more frightening than a mere man has begun stalking the shadows—and it’s after Gotham’s villains. How savage must a monster be to haunt the dreams of monsters?

Sharp’s breathtaking and moody art is the perfect compliment to Ennis’ haunting and suspenseful narrative, making Batman: Reptilian the kind of series that you’ll definitely want to read with the lights on. Issue #1 also features an intense main cover by Sharp. Cully Hamner (Batman and The Signal) provides the variant cover, and Bill Sienkiewicz (The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage, Hardware) provides a 1 in 25 “ratio’ variant (check your local comic book store for availability).

Each 32-page issue sells for $4.99 and arrives in comic book stores and at participating digital retailers on Tuesday, June 22, 2021.

Batman gets a new villain in April's Batman #107.

The Gardner is her name and based on the plant dogs she likely has some connection to Poison Ivy:

He is definitely trying to leave his mark on the Batman universe.

I've written about this many times but this shyt just makes me fukking sick. I can only hope no one remembers or bothers to care about any of these half-assed second rate spin-off/rip-off characters three years from now.

Does this Rorschach maxi-series have to do with the OG Kovacs under the mask? I was gonna check it after it was done, but after reading Doomsday Clock I just can’t get with someone else using the name.

So far it only deals with Rorschach's legacy a bit. King's primary focus appears to be reflecting the current day political climate on the Watchmen universe.
