DC October 2018 solicitations

[Korath]

I think the covers are in an Halloween theme; hence why JLO has Starfire looking like Blackfire and Azrael in a pumpkin skin. Overall, another great month for me thanks to the NAoH, JLO and JLD and... Not much else, I'll have to peruse over it at home, I guess.

PS : Special mentions to Terrifics and Damage who are bringing Doctor Doom and The Abomination to the DCU ! 🎃

[Doctor Kent Nelson]

UGH!

What's with the crossovers so early with Justice League Dark? Can someone say FOREVER EVIL again?



and as I expected no Dr Fate!

[Slim Shady]

I am BEYOND excited that Deathstroke is continuing! And with Ed Benes, who did a great issue this month.

Still bummed that they didn't get Priest to do the crossover, but maybe he didn't want to do it?

Deathstroke in Arkham Asylum sounds good.

Third month in a row where i'm losing interest, it seems as DC is doing on purpose to penalize me and all my favorite characters.

my (poor) pulling list:
Batman 56-57
Nightwing 50-51
Red Hood & the Outlaws 27

Maybe:
Titans 27-28, only if the previous issues of this revamp convinced me.
Heros in Crisis 2, just beacause i've faith in Tom King, anyway i'm really worried about it and the rumors of some heroes killed scares me.

I'm really disappointed not to buy anything from the GL franchise
however if Kyle, Guy, Kilowog, Jade, Soranik and the rest of the corps aren't in i've no interest in GL titles.

This is annoying.
JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK AND WONDER WOMAN: THE WITCHING HOUR #1
WONDER WOMAN AND JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK: THE WITCHING HOUR #1

and someone deserves a good Gibbs smack at DC.

But doesn't "Issue #1" on a book usually sell better than "Issue #2"?

UGH!

I was thinking more I, Vampire myself.

Interesting to note that Immortal Men is absent and ends at issue 6 (confirmed by Tynion on twitter).

I hadn't seen that I'm really bummed out here, I expected it to be one of the long lasting titles, really... I wonder what will happens to those characters.

Deathstroke in Arkham Asylum sounds good.

It sounds really awesome! I just hope Priest picks up with Rose and Joey and Addy and Wintergreen, not just Slade.

I know we have different favorites, but I do feel like that a bit, too. My pull list is smaller - just Deathstroke, Silencer, and Nightwing.

I'm actually not surprised, since they announced the Batman Who Laughs miniseries. I know Immortal Men wasn't a Batman Who Laughs title...but it kinda was used to keep him around until Snyder could get to him. I think the Jim Lee leaving after half an issue thing really built negative feedback for that series. I really wish they'd ban him from interiors and just tell him to do covers for the next five years. (I know, he'd have to ban himself, but really. He hasn't kept a solid schedule for at least five years now.)

And yet, it doesn't look like DC could even be bothered to confirm "FINAL ISSUE" on their own website.

Well, I was on the fence about dropping it after issue #3; maybe I'll still buy #4-6 to at least complete the run.

The nice thing about it is that it's only $3 an issue!

Yeah, but I'll probably still be annoyed by Tynion's "writing".

[millernumber1]

Ahahaha. It's funny, I really like Tynion's writing, but I'm sadly too wedded to Gotham to really collect his non-Gotham stuff (including this and JLD). I feel bad about it...but I also just don't care about the stuff he's writing about, even though I gave it a try and liked the techniques he was employing.
