Detective Comics #817

Detective Comics #817; written by James Robinson; art by Leonard Kirk and Andy Clarke; cover by Simone Bianchi

Following on from the fall out of Infinite Crisis #5, the entire line of DC comics will shift ahead one year. Every single title that makes the jump will see a new regime, new direction and new creative talent on the hook of the book.

Dubbed "One Year Later" (OYL), it's like a bad night that never knows when the hang over cures work well on their own or just as one big slushy blob.

Detective Comics #817: It's One Year Later... and who is the mysterious vigilante who's been keeping Gotham free of crime? And what is his relationship with the new police commissioner?

Don't miss the stunning first part of a story crossing over with BATMAN by writer James Robinson (JSA: THE GOLDEN AGE, HAWKMAN, STARMAN), art team Leonard Kirk (JSA) and Andy Clarke, and cover artist Simone Bianchi (SEVEN SOLDIERS: SHINING KNIGHT)!


Other OYL titles just this week from DC include: Blood of the Demon, JSA, Outsiders and Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis.

Over on the other side, where time stands still and sick bags are in the upright and closed position, the populace will stay clear of the massive late fines in store for the DC heroes and villains.

When every other hero has had their shot, why not a Warbird? Ms Marvel from Marvel Comics breaks the first in over two decades of the Avenger's first solo series.

For the fans of the lady in white, Medieval Lady Death: War of the Winds from Avatar Press. Start oiling the swords for knights, days of war and an exploration of betrayal.

Devil's Due Publishing pump action with How to Self Publish Comics ...Not Just Create Them. A guide and tale for anyone interested in the delivery of comics out of the maternity ward and into the talcum hit hands of fans and greasy mitts of burger fiends.

Looking to dip toe into the Star Wars waters? Dark Horse have a damn cheap primer in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Rebellion Flip Book. Two brand new stories, one just before The Empire Strikes Back and the other thousands of years before Anakin was even a spermatozoa.
