How much story can you get for only 10 cents?? Not that much, apparently. This week we read Batman: The 10-Cent Adventure by Greg Rucka. This issue (a prelude/teaser for an upcoming Batman event) was sold for the discounted price of 10 cents, resulting in it becoming the 3rd best-selling superhero comic book of all time. This issue was somewhat light on plot, but it did its job as a teaser and the art was fantastic.
Next week we will be reading Nubia: Real One, an alternate universe origin story for Amazonian Queen and superhero Nubia by LL McKinney.
Veronica's theme for this season is stories from the DC Graphic Novels for Young Adults imprint. Monte's theme is the five top-selling superhero comic books of all time.
The comic lineup for Season 12 will be:
Superman Smashes the Klan
Amazing Spider-Man (2014) #1-6
You Brought Me the Ocean
Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) #1-7
Shadow of the Batgirl
Batman: The 10-Cent Adventure
Nubia: Real One
Fantastic Four (2002) #60
Galaxy: The Prettiest Star
X-Men (1991) #1-3
We invite you to read along with us.
