DC Reboot Rolls On

No, not campaign season. Not budget season. Not anything that probably matters more to the most of you who somehow stumbled across this blog post.

No, none of that matters at all to me.

These days my brain is most focused on the long-awaited arrival of the DC Comics relaunch.

The first round of DC's new titles hit store shelves last Wednesday, a couple of which I wrote about in this blog post elsewhere online.

LAST WEEK'S RELEASES
~Action Comics
~Animal Man
~Batgirl
~Batwing
~Detective Comics
~Green Arrow
~Hawk And Dove

The relaunch was the focus of my most recent "Nerding Out" column, the text of which can be read online here and viewed in full here.

ALSO OUT TODAY:

DC's been getting a lot of press lately, especially from me and most everyone else who writes about comics.

And while today is the second of the publisher's four relaunch weeks, it's also the debut today of Marvel's new "Ultimate Spider-Man."

I've written about the character before, specifically in August's edition of "Nerding Out" (which can be read here and viewed online here).

But I digress...

A press release yesterday from Marvel called the new Ultimate Comics Spider-Man "the most talked about superhero of the century."

That's a pretty big statement, which I'll just let lie. Take it up in the comments section if you like. I'm off to the comic shop to pick up my copy, written by Brian Bendis and drawn by Sara Pichelli.
