It’s been a while since I covered any new Batman collected editions and when I say new I mean original material that has come out in the past five years. That changes today when I discuss not one, but two recent books: Death and the Maidens TP (2004) and Batman and Son HC (2007). The common theme that runs through both is that of villain Ra’s al Ghul. Both books call upon Batman’s past and his future, whatever that may turn out to be.

There’s a lack of news on this week’s, but I make up for it by running down a few upcoming books from DC and Marvel that may be worth your investment. I also follow-up last weeks Annihilation Classic show and tell you about what may be the real first appearance of Rocket Raccoon.

All this including the Product and Shipping Updates and the New Releases of the Week.
