Welcome back to everyone’s favorite Batman-themed column here on Comic Booked, Baturday!

My pick of the week: EVENT LEVIATHAN!!!
So there you have it. Lots of great stuff going on in Batman-related books and other media. Tons of great news, previews, and upcoming releases as well. But you all know that. I’m still reeling from the awesome that was New York Comic Con 2019. Batman’s Grave was a fantastic premiere issue. Batwoman looks like it’s going to be a promising addition to the CW DC line of superhero shows. Titans finally gave us Superboy and tied in nicely with last week’s cliffhanger ending. And I’m super into the mystery of Leviathan’s true identity! But what are your thoughts? What are you most looking forward to in the upcoming weeks and months? Let us know on social media and we’ll continue the conversation there. See you back here next week for another installment of Baturday!
