Each month I like to showcase a batch of new comics that you should be reading. I try and make it varied, mixing up creative ideas, genres and different storytelling to create a list that will have something that will appeal to everyone. This month there is Saturday morning cartoon nostalgia, big superhero events, bounty hunters and much more.
In the final week of May, DC Comics have released the last batch of original sneak peek stories aimed at being new reader friendly. This week features stories for Batgirl, Black Canary, Constantine: The Hellblazer, Cyborg, Earth 2: Society, The Flash, Harley Quinn, Justice League United, Sinestro, Superman/Wonder Woman and We Are Robin.
To avoid confusion and to make things simple for all readers I have created a Reading Order Guide for DC Comics’ upcoming Convergence event. I’ve included everything you need to know about the event including background, all the tie-ins, creative teams and release dates.
This week we feature the great Chris Samnee, the artist best known for his work on Daredevil. We give you a gallery featuring a great selection of Chris Samnee art as well some reading recommendations for those who want to check out more of his art.
This week sees the print release of Adventures of Superman #1, a digital-first series of short Superman stories set out of continuity. Made by top level creators, The Adventures of Superman is a great for anyone who wants to read a short self contained Superman story without having to worry about continuity. Check out the covers and the preview inside.
