Writer Tom King | Artists Byron Vaughns, Lee Weeks | Cover Artist Lee Weeks (DC Comics)
DC Comics has been rolling out one-shot comics that see a hero cross paths with a Looney Tunes character -- Lobo meets the Roadrunner, Wonder Woman meets the Tasmanian Devil, etc. -- but this one pitting Batman against Elmer Fudd stands apart for its (appropriately) dark approach to the mashup.
We’re now seeing Fudd through a DC Comics lens, so instead of the determined, affable hunter, we’re getting an obsessive stalker with a gun bent on tracking down Batman. Suddenly that signature speech impediment doesn’t seem so funny anymore, does it?
Writer Rob Williams | Artist Stjepan Sejic | Cover Artist Otto Schimdt (DC Comics)
Suicide Squad has been on a wild and crazy hot streak that shows no sign of cooling off. Rob Williams and his artistic partners (this time the talented Stjepan Sejic) have been conjuring up stories that hit the sweet spot between deadly serious and completely inane. There are intense situations with surprise laughs, characters displaying lecherous behavior and real stakes that take a toll on the team.
Spoilers if you’re not caught up on the series!
With the apparent death of Rick Flagg, the team needs a new leader. But when the candidates are Deadshot, Killer Croc, Enchantress, Katana, Captain Boomerang, or Harley Quinn, well, let’s just say we’re hoping they bring in some outside help, for the sake of the DC Universe.
Writer Greg Rucka | Artist Bilquis Evely | Cover Artist Liam Sharp (DC Comics)
This is the final issue of Greg Rucka’s Wonder Woman Rebirth run. It’s been a long, winding road to the get to this point, but he managed to tear down and rebuild Wonder Woman’s entire mythology over the course of two dozen issues, with the help of Nicola Scott, Liam Sharp and more. Rucka’s entire run was split into two storylines, one told in the past (the “Year One” and “Godwatch” arcs) and one in the present (“The Lies” and “The Truth”), so we’re eager to see how they finally merge together to bring things to a close concerning Diana, Ares, Cheetah, Etta, and Steve.
Also, while this final, oversized issue will be wrapping things up for Rucka’s storylines, it will also be setting up what’s to come for Diana and company when writer Shea Fontana and artist Mirka Andolfo take over with a new villain bent on hunting Wonder Woman down, so it’s both a jumping-off and jumping-on point.
