DC Universe New Weekly Releases 14 December, 2021

Far Sector by N.K. Jemisin and Jamal Campbell has been a top comic for it’s entire run and sadly it is ending this week. It was a great series and I hope there are many more titles that take a similar approach to storytelling. I’m also enjoying the Rorschach storyline and am glad that one is continuing.

Anyway, here’s what I found for the week…

TOP RELEASES OF THE WEEK

10 new comics released today (last week had 11) which seems to be a lot these days from DC.  Anyway, looking at Comic Book Roundup which aggregates a bunch of review sites, here are the top issues from this batch of comics. This week I found 4 issue that I wanted to look further into.

• Far Sector #12
  by N.K. Jemisin and Jamal Campbell.
  Published by DC Comics, 2021.
  When Jo Mullein left Earth for parts unknown, little did she know she’d end up becoming a Green Lantern at the farthest outpost in the known universe, dealing with a complex culture that was about to have its first murder in centuries. Investigating that death unearthed a lot of secrets and made her a lot of enemies, and it all comes to a head in this rousing final issue. Written by multiple Hugo Award winner N.K. Jemisin and drawn by Naomi co-creator Jamal Campbell, this epic space adventure is one you will want to read over and over again.
• Rorschach #9
  by Tom King and Jorge Forns.
  Published by DC Comics, 2021.
  The detective has found where the source of this tragedy began. Where Laura learned to shoot, a place where she not only learned to kill but also has killed, and where she brought Rorschach to turn him into an assassin as well. As the timelines crisscross, the man trying to undo this mess only falls deeper into it.
• Batman: The Detective #3
  by Tom Taylor and Andy Kubert.
  Published by DC Comics, 2021.
  Henri Ducard is a man of mystery with a checkered past and a complicated existence…but what deep connection does he have with Bruce Wayne? What lessons did he teach the man who would become Batman? Can Batman use these lessons to save Ducard’s life? Or will Equilibrium strike again?
• American Vampire: 1976 #9
  by Scott Snyder and Rafael Albuquerque.
  Published by Vertigo Comics, 2021.
  It’s the beginning of the end. With their numbers cut and only hours left before the Earth cracks and humanity is conquered, the VMS has exhausted every smart defensive strategy. Their last hope is a marathon of increasingly desperate Hail Marys-culminating in a high-speed face-off with the Beast, freshly emerged from Hell in his terrifying final form. Before the score is settled, Travis taps into new powers to rally a surprising source of backup, Felicia takes control of the president’s nukes, Gus fights for freedom, and Skinner and Pearl rehearse an unthinkable farewell.
