Comic Book Day - Robin's Revenge
Nab these comics, or we'll go all Boy Wonder on your a$$ with a crowbar.
Thanks to the nationwide food-coma that is Labor Day, comic
book day is Thursday this week.
#1. Top Pick:
Batman and Robin #14 - What the hell, Batman!?! Did you really think a crowbar was a good back-to-school present? Grant Morrison continues to write one of the best comics on the racks with this unpredictable book. And don’t worry; Robin's cast-iron beat down on Joker is
not the big spoiler from this issue. Wait till you see what happens next...
#2. Honorable
Mention: Billy
the Kid’s Old Timey Oddities And The Ghastly Fiend Of London #1 - Finally, your dark dreams about Western gunslingers and
Victorian serial killers comes true! Billy the Kid meets Jack the Ripper.
Written by The Goon’s Eric Powell.
#3. Trade of the
Week: Dr. Horrible TPB - Get the backstory on all your favorite web-musical
characters in this new trade paperback from Dark Horse. Will the terrible
secret origins of Moist may finally be revealed?
#4. Son of a Bub: Daken:
Dark Wolverine #1 - Wolverine’s son gets his own book. If you’re following
Logan’s descent into Hell from last
week’s picks and its repercussions, grab this book.
#5. The Wednesday
Thursday Gamble: Punisher Max: Hot Rods of Death #1 - Frank Castle, a biker gang, the return of the War Wagon, and
an “Explicit Content” warning. Excellent.
