Whether you're digging Tom King's current run on Batman or not, you have to admit that the current two-issue arc is something special. Despite their storied courtship that's been going on since 1940, Batman and Catwoman don't meet up as often as one would think, let alone get some alone time - at least "on camera." Well, there was 2011's Catwoman #1, which received some undeserved backlash, but that's a conversation for another day.
Since late last week, there have been enough teaser images for Secret Empire to cause Steve Rogers to haunt peoples' dreams.

Since DC kicked off Rebirth last June, a clear highlight has been that of the Superman family of books. Much to the delight of many fans, the pre-Flashpoint Man of Steel was reintegrated into current continuity, bringing a sense of optimism and familiarity that drew back lapsed readers.

With less than a week to go until Monsters Unleashed officially kicks off, Marvel has no intention of allowing the hype train to lose any momentum.

Before the new season of Prison Break arrives, you can look forward to seeing Wentworth Miller make his triumphant return as Captain Cold on DC's Legends of Tomorrow. Yes, he technically died during the first season, but that's the beauty of time travel, baby.
When DC Universe: Rebirth #1 arrived last May, the question on many fans' minds was how the Watchmen characters would be weaved into the DCU's grand tapestry and, furthermore, what was their involvement when it came to tampering with the timeline? Well, we may get some answers this spring in the pages of Batman and The Flash when the titular characters join forces to get to the bottom of this grand mystery.
As the release of the new Justice League of America series draws near, more information slowly comes to light. Just this week, writer Steve Orlando went into detail describing what it took to bring the likes of Batman, Lobo, Black Canary, the Ray, the Atom, Vixen, and Killer Frost together.
It's that time: Diamond Comic Distributors' sales figures are in for the month of December 2016 and it's been made clear that Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #1 reigned supreme. But then again, that revelation doesn't surprise us when you consider that it's scheduled for a second printing.
