DC Solicitations – September 2020
DC’s latest solicitations are here, and here are the collected editions, which include a bunch of hardcovers. Among them is a re-solicit of Justice League International Omnibus Vol. 2 HC. There’s also the curious Batman by Tom King and Lee Weeks Deluxe Edition HC. It’s great comics, with some of the best work Weeks has ever done, but the material, save for one story, has been collected in Deluxe Editions of King’s run already. Of course, that one story is the instant classic Batman/Elmer Fudd Special, so a decision must be made…
You can discuss these solicitations with us on our FORUM.

John Constantine is back in London, back to his old tricks—and just in time, as things have become very dark indeed in his old stomping grounds. A small-time gang lord has found himself dealing with a big-time outbreak of supernatural weirdness…and, without any allies to call on and nothing left to call his own, John doesn’t have much choice in taking a paycheck from one of London’s worst, or accepting the help of one of the gang lord’s would-be foot soldiers. But what should be an open-and-shut exorcism turns out to be nothing but…and the madness is just getting started! Collects The Sandman Universe Presents: Hellblazer #1, John Constantine: Hellblazer #1-6, and Books of Magic #14.
