So tbh Tron Ares was fine but I thought "Hasta La Vista Ares" was a weird phrase for Jared Leto's character. Oh well

Weekly pickup thread for 10/1/2025!! I haven't read all of them yet, so I'll post the ones I've read first. My local shop also was missing their DC shipment for some reason, so I don't have any comics from them, and will post about those new releases when I get them.

Since I have a minute, I wanted to give a quick shout-out to the folks at @criticalrole.bsky.social and @darkhorse.com, and specifically their CRITICAL ROLE: VOX MACHINA ORIGINS comics. My partner is Blind and can't read comics but LOVES CR. We read them together and I do the character voices.

I'll have to see if I can't find my signed copy of KNIGHT & BEARD #1 later, it's probably somewhere in my room. One of the first comic issues I ever got, because Thorn Kurtzhals, the artist and co-creator, actually lived near me and their sister went to high school with me.

As much as I absolutely adore artwork in modern comics, there's something indescribably amazing about some of the old two page spreads like this, knowing they were first drawn by hand. Absolutely flawless work.

Idk how confident I am in DC/MARVEL: BATMAN/DEADPOOL #1 following Marvel's issue this week, but the variant with The Joker and Doctor Doom looks incredible. Definitely picking this variant up.
