DC Universe New Weekly Releases September 3, 2019

DC Comics started to release new comics to their DC Universe platform about a year after they enter circulation as floppies. With that in mind I decided to list off those released each week as I do for Marvel Unlimited. The DC releases come out on Monday just like the Marvel comics but since they are pushed to their site in the evening I figured I’d publish their list on Tuesday…

Here’s the new stuff I’ve found this week that were released August 29nd 2018:

10 new comics released today compared to 17 last week. Looking at Comic Book Roundup which aggregates a bunch of review sites, here are the top issues from this batch of comics. 2 of the 6 issues meet my current threshold for top honors this week (rating 8.5 or over with more than 3 reviews).

Number Ones

There are 7 NUMBER ONEs this week so there’s plenty of places to start out a new series thought I’m not really sure if the Looney Tunes comics are gonna be series or one-shots. Do Annual #1s really count either? I’ll count them this time…
