    That's actually a pretty new phenomenon pre pandemic Superman, Wonder Woman and depending on the run Green Lantern and Flash, would usually have higher or at least comparable sales.

    But somehow DC has managed to completely tank the sales of everything not Batfamily, in the past 1-3 years.

    And I'm honestly suprised how good Taylors run is doing, with how slow ans low stakes it feels.

    Pre pandemic Superman would be Bendis and Wonder Woman was doing that Max Lord arc
    Understandable

    Wait I mistake what you said

    I guess that means the Big 7 buyers are mainly physical, comic book store goers?

    I think that helps it. Taylor is delivering "feel good" comics.

    Earth-2 Dick Grayson is in the variant cover for the new JSA book.
    Probably just for the variant cover, tho.

    DC: Dick Grayson, Wally West, Donna Troy, Yara Flor, Titans

    Some of my favorite Mangas: One Piece, Slam Dunk, Fullmetal Alchemist, HunterXHunter, Vinland Saga, Monster, Berserk, Vagabond.
    Current reading: Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man, Spy X Family, Kaiju Nº8, Blue Lock, Dandadan.

    I agree with this. Stakes are artificial in an perpetually ongoing comic, and Taylor acknowledges that the audience is aware.

    I'd argue that produces a more enjoyable story, but that varies depending on the reader.

    Yeah, this is the 70s team. Star Spangled Kid became Skyman and founded Infinity Inc., then was killed off, and of course, replaced by Stargirl in the 90s JSA.

    I’m glad that’s an old photo. It’s a truly hideous Robin outfit.

    Dick Grayson has gone through every kind of stake imaginable minus one from te heart but DC vs vampires might change that lol.
    No really he deserves good things after that last decade he had.

    It's the Nightwing version of Bat-mite.

    There is a lot of Dick Grayson, from Robin to Nightwing, in November and that is only going by what the solicits say (like he is not mentioned in the Worlds Finest, but he might be in the book).

A winter so cold that Mr. Freeze, Victor Fries, no longer needs his containment suit to survive; he is in an element where he can thrive. Robin empathizes with Mr. Freeze, all Freeze wants to do is save his wife, Nora—but Batman warns Robin not to give his empathy to Victor Fries.
