As a longtime fan of DC Comics who’s spent countless nights poring over these iconic characters, I’m absolutely thrilled about the upcoming releases in October and November!
Previously, DC Comics declared a revival for Elseworlds, which is their label for comics outside of the main continuity such as “Batman: The Doom That Came to Gotham” and “Superman: Red Son”. Following the reintroduction of books under the Elseworlds banner with issues like “Gotham by Gaslight: The Kryptonian Age #1”, “Dark Knights of Steel: Allwinter” #1, and “DC vs. Vampires: World War V” #1 – with “Batman the Barbarian”, “Green Lantern Dark”, and “Batman: Nightfire” yet to be released – DC is now reprinting some of their most iconic Elseworlds tales in fresh editions of the Elseworlds graphic novel compilations.
This week sees the reprint of “Elseworlds: Superman Volume 1,” a comic book series last published in 2018. It continues the narrative set by the recently released “Elseworlds: Batman Volume 1” and “Elseworlds: Justice League Volume 1.” The second volume of the “Elseworlds: Batman” series, featuring the complete vampire Batman storyline, is due out in October as “Elseworlds: Batman Volume 2.” Meanwhile, “Elseworlds: Superman Volume 2,” focusing on Superboy and Supergirl, is scheduled for release in November.
As a dedicated gamer, I’m excited to share some upcoming reading material that any DC fan would love! The 2024 editions of their Elseworlds collections are here, and let me tell you, these aren’t your average graphic novels. Each one typically packs around 300 pages and retails for approximately $34.99. Now, without further ado, let me guide you through the comics housed within each volume of these 2024 editions!
