THE HONOR ROLL: October 3, 2018 Releases

Never doubt we live in a golden age of comics. So many to choose from, im sure our contributors had quite a time picking out what to show us this week but they did! Here are some great spoiler-filled picks for you to check out, so let’s get to it!

THE UNEXPECTED #5 – Doug Zawisza

Ronan Cliquet, Steve Orlando, Jeromy Cox, Carlos M. Mangual – DC Comics

Steve Orlando continues to script the adventures of Firebrand and Neon. In The Unexpected #5, Orlando is joined by artist Ronan Cliquet, just in time for Hawkman to show up. Did I mention they meet at Castle Frankenstein? Yeah, it’s a wild, fun issue. As the title goes, this one is Unexpected. But really enjoyable

NIGHTWING #50 – Martin Gray

Benjamin Percy, Travis Moore, Chris Mooneyham, Klaus Janson, Tamra Bonvillain, Nick Filardi, John Kalisz, Carlos M. Mangual – DC Comics

In the post-New 52 world, DC claims Dick Grayson never paraded around Gotham in tiny briefs. Well, he’s certainly not shy in Blüdhaven, as seen in Nightwing #50 by Ben Percy, Travis Moore, Chris Mooneyham, Klaus Janson and friends.

 

About Me: I’m a veteran (old!) comics fan who by day works as a non-mild-mannered (thoroughly obnoxious) journalist and by night blogs about comics at Too Dangerous For a Girl. Feel free to follow my witterings at @DangerousToo

BATMAN #56 Tom Barnett

Tom King, Tony S. Daniel, Danny Miki, Tomeu Morey, Clayton Cowles – DC Comics

There’s nothing particularly amazing with this panel, it’s just well done. The storm seems overwhelming as Batman loses cell signal trudging deeper into the night.

WHAT IF? FLASH THOMPSON WAS SPIDER-MAN? #1 – Kat!

Gerry Conway, Diego Olortegui, Walden Wong, Chris O’Halloran, Travis Lanham – Marvel Comics

A classic Spider-Man image portrayed in a new way as Flash realizes he is not the hero he thought he was by being Spider-Man.

BATMAN #56 – Scott Keys

Tom King, Tony S. Daniel, Danny Miki, Tomeu Morey, Clayton Cowles – DC Comics

Batman literally goes to the ends of the Earth to find the KGBeast in Batman #56 by King and Daniel. There isn’t much the Dark Knight wouldn’t do for his family! A great follow-up to the events of last issue!
