Radical Comics sent Major Spoilers the cover images and solicitation information for titles arriving in January 2010.
Don’t know if this one aired yet, but the upcoming Batmite episode looks really good – no matter what the haters say.
The Death of Batman of Earth Prime (or Zur-En-Arrh, we don’t know which, but does it really matter?)
Two years ago, we were teased with the promise that Legends Live Forever (not a Queen lyric by the way) – even if they get killed in the process. As you might have already heard, Batman finally dies in this issue, but as always, it is getting there that is the most infuriating. Or is it half the fun? In any case Final Crisis #6 is here and the death of Earth is upon us.
This looks like it could be a fun title – there’s a guy fighting a giant crab on the cover.
Salt Water Taffy: The Seaside Adventures of Jack and Benny is an ongoing quarterly all-ages series to be released by Oni Press.
Jack and Benny are two young brothers on vacation in Chowder Bay, Maine for the entire summer. With no television or batteries for his Gameboy, Jack couldn’t be more bored. But when Benny, the youngest of the pair, spots a dark, indistinguishable shape creeping toward the ocean, the boys’ curiosity has them chasing one of Chowder Bay’s oldest legends. What exactly did Benny see? And what does it have to do with the recent rash of taffy thefts plaguing Dr. True’s sweet shop? Maybe the Putnam summer home won’t be as boring as the brothers feared! With surly old fisherman, sea monsters, warring seagulls, civil war ghosts, giant kleptomaniac eagles and mysteries around every corner–Chowder Bay may not just be the strangest place Jack and Benny have ever been to, it might be one of the strangest on Earth!
Fun! Salt Water Taffy: The Seaside Adventures of Jack and Benny will arrive May 7, 2008 for $5.95 (it’s 96 pages long).
