Hello!
Walt is at ComicsPro in sunny Los Angeles.
I am at a train station in Germany, losing a fight against the rain.
So we are doing our own ComicsPro: reading announcements online and adding too many books to our lists.
Big news: Marvel and DC are bringing JLA/Avengers back in facsimile. Huge single-issue win!
Now, let us get to Gotham.
GET IN THE CAR.
Batman Vol. 1: Daylight HC
The hit run by Matt Fraction and Jorge Jimenez finally lands in collected edition. This is a fresh, modern take on Gotham featuring some of the most stunning Batman art in years.
This is one of those runs people were collecting like crazy in single issues, and it is the kind of run people will still be talking about later, so if you already know you want in, this is the moment to pre-order it.
Batman: Urban Legends Omnibus Vol. 1
The massive Gotham anthology is finally here. This volume collects the fan-favorite side stories and deep dives into the weirdest corners of the Bat-family. Essential for every DC collector. And yes, Batman is still there too. Calm down.
If you like the extended Gotham ecosystem, this is an easy pre-order.
Batman: Detective Comics: The New 52 Omnibus Vol. 2
The Batman: Detective Comics: The New 52 Omnibus Vol. 2 closes another gap in the New 52 Detective Comics era, and honestly that alone makes it very tempting if you like your shelves complete.
The second volume features the critically acclaimed run by Francis Manapul and Peter J. Tomasi.
Everything Dead & Dying TP
Not everything on FOC is capes and Gotham. Everything Dead & Dying is our top indie pick for 2025. A genre-defying masterpiece of horror and romance by Tate Brombal and Jacob Phillips.
If you want one FOC book this week that will actually stay with you, make it this one.
You can check everything out on FOC…
