À propos de cet audio

Comic book fans are riding a wave of major news and exciting releases as the holiday season approaches. This week, DC is launching the festive anthology I Saw Ma Hunkel Kissing Santa Claus #1, promising holiday romance chaos with stories featuring Supergirl on a blind date and Galaxy’s Hanukkah preparations, adding heartwarming—and chaotic—seasonal drama to the shelves just in time for Thanksgiving. The issue drops November 26, offering something light and fun for readers eager to embrace the spirit of comic book festivities.

Meanwhile, DC and Marvel are pushing the boundaries with team-up stories. A crossover issue, Batman / Deadpool #1, arrives in stores with fan-service galore: inside jokes, witty dialogue, and action that bridges these iconic universes, while Batman Superman World’s Finest #45 ramps up with a storyline literally titled “Merger,” signaling big changes for two of DC’s greatest heroes.

Marvel fans are buzzing about new launches this Wednesday, including Daredevil & Punisher: The Devil's Trigger, a gritty pairing of two of Marvel’s darkest characters, and Infernal Hulk—which expects nothing short of apocalyptic drama as Hulk takes center stage. Uncle Scrooge: Earth's Mightiest Duck wraps up its run, proving that comics can blend superhero antics with the timeless charm of classic animated ducks.

On the speculator front, Image Comics is partnering with GONKBONK for a Holiday Blind Bag collectible, set to hit shops in December. These mystery packs have become a holiday tradition, offering fans a chance to snag rare variants and surprise gifts.

Marvel’s ongoing X-Men event, Age of Revelation, continues to draw attention—and criticism—for its exhausting scale and tangled storylines. Sixteen books a month are tying in characters from across the Marvel Universe, though some fans and critics are feeling nostalgic for the more focused and emotionally intense events of the past.

On the indie scene, the acclaimed but offbeat series Ordained from Bad Idea lands in December and is already set for a movie adaptation. Such moves show just how vibrant the independent comic landscape is, with creators breaking out beyond the page.

Fans of the Fantastic Four have something truly unique ahead: in February, Marvel’s First Family will crossover with the Planet of the Apes universe. Reed, Sue, Ben, and Johnny will journey to Ape City and meet Cornelius, Zira, and Dr. Zaius—plus classic Marvel villains. This collaboration harks back to Marvel’s 1970s history with the franchise, promising nostalgia and fresh storytelling.

In auction news, Superman has once again set records: a rare issue sold for over $9 million last week, making it the most expensive comic book ever sold. This speaks to the enduring legacy and cultural impact of comic book icons.

As the shelves fill with graphic novels, new series, and festive specials, both nostalgia and innovation are fueling the current comic landscape. For fans old and new, the end of November holds a rush of compelling stories, major character milestones, and collectibles that will keep the conversations lively through the holiday season and into the new year.
