WPL: New Comics Discussion for 1/25/2023 - Pull of the Week: DETECTIVE COMICS #1068 [Discussion]

2023-01-25T04:09:34+00:00

The Weekly Pull List results for this Wednesday are in, and this week's top book is DC's DETECTIVE COMICS #1068.

This thread is open to Pull List posters and all members of the /r/comicbooks community to share your thoughts on the latest issue of Ram V, Rafael Albuquerque, and Ivan Reis' Detective Comics or any new books shipping this week.

The primary intention of this thread is to promote discussion of new books. It also serves as a way to consolidate discussion to a single thread and talk about what books are popular here on /r/comicbooks. That does not mean other threads aren't welcome, this is just a place to start that's easy to find each week.

The thread is populated with comments meant to direct the discussion of each book. Based on a recent community decision we're expanding the Top Ten and populated the thread with titles appearing on Ten Percent or more of submitted pull lists. If a title you want to talk about is not listed, simply add a comment with the title and issue number first and comment below. There is also a comment dedicated to the discussion of WPL results linked above.

Spoilers will follow, but there's no harm in tagging them as such. Each title in the Top Ten listed below is linked directly to its corresponding comments to avoid seeing details from other books. The post has also been placed in "contest mode" to help readers avoid spoilers while browsing.

What comic trope do you really dislike?

2023-01-28T00:18:15+00:00

As per the question…for me it’s the alter ego travelling to an unusual setting and having the superhero show up in the same setting.

If Peter Parker and J. Jonah Jameson travel to the Everglades and Spider-man shows up and Jameson can’t put the pieces together how did he ever get a job in journalism, never mind owning his own paper.

Likewise when Bruce Wayne, who has been suspected as being Batman on multiple occasions takes a well publicised trip to London and Batman also shows up should it not raise a few eyebrows?
