THE BEST BOOK CLUB IN THE MULTIVERSE!

Welcome to the YEAR OF THE BAT! In the kickoff to our seventh season, we begin the journey of Batman in the NEW 52 with Geoff Johns and Jim Lee’s JUSTICE LEAGUE: ORIGINS!

Five Years Ago… Batman. Superman. Wonder Woman. The Flash. Green Lantern. Aquaman. You know the names. But you don’t know their stories. With the dawn of a brave new world on the horizon, these heroes will unite to defend their world from an invasion from beyond. And when all seems lost, the fate of this and every reality will rest upon the shoulders of teenager Victor Stone!

Covers Justice League (2011) #1-6 by Geoff Johns and Jim Lee

Check out THE VOLNERABLE - where voice actor, mental health advocate, and human Kennedy Hibbert is on a mission to show that mental health struggles do not isolate us, but rather connect us all! She dives deep with other voice actors, creatives, and mental health professionals who have been where you’ve been as they share their own personal stories of trial and triumph. Together, we will foster real conversations based on understanding, support each other as human beings, and prove that ‘vo’lnerability is something to be proud of!

MALCOLM IS IN A BOOK! Friend of the show Nacho Teso is releasing an english translation of his self-published essay MILES MORALES: ACROSS THE SPIDER-MYTH. This self-published essay centers on the character of Miles Morales and explores not only his history within the panels, but also his impact on the Spider-Man legend, as well as how these themes are addressed in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Malcolm provided the afterword for this new edition of the book, and it is SENSATIONAL! Check it out when it drops December 16th!
