Batman #46

Adam's Pick II

"THE TRAVELERS" part two! Booster Gold's wedding present has screwed up Batman's past, and done even more damage to his present. Now, with the Caped Crusader himself refusing to cooperate, the only way for Booster to correct this runaway timeline is to get Catwoman on his side. But with her own past altered, can he make Catwoman recognize the qualities in her husband-to-be that brought them together in the first place? Plus, if Batman isn't doing his job, Gotham City may become way more dangerous than our bumbling time-traveler might be ready for.

Need a little more Batman? Don't forget to grab DC Nation #0. With introductions to three upcoming events for only $.25, it is MORE than worth it! Get sneak peaks of Batman, Justice League: No Justice and the upcoming Superman: Man of Steel, the first official line from Brian Michael Bendis!

Mister Miracle #5 (of 12)

Adam's Pick

How do you spend your last night on Earth? Why, with the one you love, of course! Having been condemned to death by the new Highmaster, Mister Miracle is going to have to return to New Genesis for his execution. Before he does, he and Big Barda go on one last date. But if Scott Free truly is infected by Darkseid, as Orion says, you can bet some dark force will intervene-only to what end? 

What goes best with the last date night ever? How about a touch of Darkseid? Scott has to return to New Genesis, but he wants to spend one last, long night with the love of his life. But, we all know that peace is hard to hold in one Superhero's hands. Even for only a night.

Mister Miracle, from the minds of Sheriff of Babylon creators, Tom King and Mitch Gerads, will take you on an emotional roller-coaster. From the dark crevices of one's mind to the soft heart beat of true love. If you haven't yet, come in and grab the first five issues of this incredible DC Comics 12 part mini-series.

The Amazing Spider-Man #792

Funky's Pick

VENOM INC. Part 2. Spider-Man finds himself between Eddie and a mysterious new figure! And Black Cat and her gang find themselves face-to-face with an amped-up villain named Maniac that might just rip those faces right off.

There is a lot of "NEW" in this Marvel Legacy issue of The Amazing Spider-Man. Dan Slott (Silver Surfer) and Ryan Stegman (Uncanny Avengers) know how to introduce the new and exciting characters just as well as they know how to beat the crap out of the existing ones! In this fast-paced issue, watch both Black Cat and Spider-Man meet new foes and witness if and how they win.

Did you come by for this issue? Are we sold out? Do not worry! This highly anticipated issue of The Amazing Spider-Man already has a Second Printing announced. If you would like us to order you a copy, just come on by and we can pre-order it for you.
