.
Marvel's unique 'Indy-Feeling' out-of-tights realist 'HAWKEYE'...the Romeo & Juliet meets STAR WARS inspired 'SAGA' ....... & Brian M. Bendis written 'X-MEN' titles are all attracting tons of attention...... Robert Kirkman's AMC darlings 'THE WALKING DEAD' & 'THIEF OF THIEVES' [also coming soon to TV] continue to IMPRESS NEW READERS.......while Mark Waid's 'DAREDEVIL' builds steady like all Valiant's titles............as Scott Snyder's 'BATMAN' & his creepy RETURN-OF-THE-JOKER storyline domiinates all heroic comic artistry by-far!

Drama, Shocking Twists, & Page-Turning Suspense, Mixed With True Emotional
Highs & Lows, There Is Much MORE To This,
THE BESTSELLING GRAPHIC NOVEL For 3 Straight Years!!!...

Keep Your Eyes On DC COMICS New-52 Smash 'BATMAN'.....
...as stated [WAY] below & on our 'READING COMICS' Page:...
...The RETURN OF THE JOKER storyline, mixed with the crafty, modern-noir, horror-like Scott Snyder story texture is SURE to pull in some WALKING DEAD READERS while, once word got out [of his ideas] to other DC writers they wanted in, the elongated format should only expand 'BATMAN's readership to heights unseen in decades!!!
....'BATMAN' is TRULY again a Knight of the Dark now....
......
....
....
....
....
...If you thought Heath's version was a landmark..
[which it was], then you owe it to yourself to try Scott Snyder's with the DC-New-52...
WARNING: Not for the Squeamish!
