Every Missing Question, Zatanna, Spectre Omnibus & More, Mapped | 2025 Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus Poll

May 24, 2025 by krisis

It’s time to map the DC Universe! In June, I’ll be joining with Near Mint Condition to launch the Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus 2nd Annual Poll! This post explains every DC Hero from Q to Z I haven’t already covered in other posts – including The Question, Zatanna, & The Spectre omnibus mapping – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

Through the end of May I’ll be covering DC entire publishing history by mapping missing omnibus volumes to fill in every gap in your DC oversize shelf! That’s all leading to the kickoff of the Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus 2nd Annual Poll on Near Mint Condition the first week of June.

Here’s the full list of the characters this post covers: The Question, Ragman, The Ray, Red Tornado, Renee Montoya, Resurrection Man, Richard Dragon, Rip Hunter – Time Master, Rose & Thorn, Sgt. Rock, Sideways, Silencer, The Spectre, The Spirit, Stanley and His Monster, Starfire, Stargirl, Starman, Tom Strong, Valor, Vigilante, Warlord, and Zatanna.

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: DC Comics – April 16 2025

Next week is the 16th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics April 16 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics April 9 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Superman Day kicks off the Summer of Superman, Absolute Rogues, Waid’s “We Are Yesterday” begins in the past, a Five Years Later reprint five years later, the sharp edges of Zatanna’s mystery, the Sonic League, conflicts explode in The New Gods, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: There are a lot of heavyweight issues out this week that I considered. Last month, picking Detective Comics gave me a surefire winner because Taylor & Janin’s run has just been that damn good. And, I’m very tempted to pick Christopher Cantwell’s Challengers of the Unknown (2024) #5 (of 5… or 6). But, I’m going with Jamal Campbell’s Zatanna (2025) #3. Last issue was wildly entertaining and gave us terrific contrast from the debut issue. Plus, there’s no one else in comics who draws quite like Campbell.

This post includes every comic out from DC Comics April 16 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and review every in-continuity series with a new issue out this week. Plus, for most new releases, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to DC Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: DC Comics – March 19 2025

Next week is the 12th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics March 19 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics March 12 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Absolute Flash debuts, two generations of Robins in peril, Zatanna vs. ghosts of magic past, Finest Bronze Age team-ups, Nightwing does a heist, the Justice League races to defeat Darkseid with Sonic, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This is a surprisingly close call, as there are several comics in this week’s pull that I am very excited to read more of – especially Jamal Campbell’s Zatanna (2025) #2! However, my undisputed winner of the week is Detective Comics (1937 / 2016) #1095. Every time I think back to last issue and where we left Damian my heart starts racing all over again. When I can still remember every page of one of 200+ new issues I’ve read in the past month, we’ve got a winner on our hands.

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: DC Comics – February 19 2025

Next week is the 8th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics February 19 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics February 12 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: a new god on Earth, answers for The Question, long-awaited Golden Age Wonder Woman, Titans get psycho, Red Hood’s Hill, a perfectly imperfect Shazam, a Milestone climax, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Despite being excited for several comics this week, this is an easy pick – The New Gods (2024) #3! Just the idea of seeing one more page of Evan Cagle’s artwork colored by Francesco Segala makes me giddy, which says nothing of the intergalactic mystery of this story.

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: DC Comics – May 22 2024

May 19, 2024 by krisis

It’s the 21st new comic book day of the new year! This post covers DC Comics May 22 2024 releases, which actually hit comic stores on Tuesday May 21 2024. Missed last week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics May 15 2024 new releases.

(DC is still releasing their comics on Tuesday until the start of July, but I think most folks think of Wednesday as release day, so that’s how I’m labelling my posts until then.)

This week in DC Comics: Waid’s World’s Finest, oversize Fables, House of Brainiac continues, JL vs Godzilla vs Kong concludes, Taylor’s final Nightwing arc begins, Joker’s best friend, Constantine’s road trip continues, many WebToons in physical format, and more!

This list includes every comic and digital comic out from DC this week, plus collected editions including omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats. I recap and review every new single issue. Plus, for every new release, I’ll point you to the right guide within my Crushing Comics Guide to DC Comics to find out how to collect each character in full – and, if a guide is linked from this post, that means it is updated through the present day!

DC Comics May 22 2024 Collected Editions

Barkham Asylum
(2024 digest-size paperback, ISBN 978-1779505002 / digital)
This is a non-continuity OGN aimed at 8-12 year-old readers about Joker’s dog Jester being locked up in the pet equivalent of Arkham Asylum. Can this bad dog find a good streak, or is he doomed to heed the call of his villainous master? It sounds silly but super-cute! I might try to get it from the library for Kid Krisis.

Batman: Wayne Family Adventures Vol. 4
(2024 paperback, ISBN 978-1779526915)
Speaking of non-continuity Batman adventures, this volume continues to collect the hit non-continuity WebToon about the extended BatFamily. Y’all know it is an enduring mystery to me why anyone reads non-continuity stories, but I hear from many friends that this is a fun book!

Perhaps the popularity of this run is a part of why every single one of DC’s major heroes are currently leading their own families of characters of every age, gender, and sexual orientation (which is a big part of what I love about DC right now).

DC Pride: Love and Justice
(2024 hardcover, ISBN 978-1779525918 / digital)
This anthology of anthologies claims to collect all of DC Pride (2021) #1, plus selected (or all?) stories (presumably all from LGBTQA* characters) from Mysteries of Love in Space (2019) #1, New Year’s Evil (2019) #1, and Young Monsters in Love (2018) #1.

The real mystery in space is trying to figure how how and where DC collects all of these stories from single issue anthologies into collections, often years after the fact!

Batman: Black Mirror The Deluxe Edition
(2024 deluxe hardcover, ISBN 978-1779525895 / digital)
A brand new deluxe hardcover of Scott Snyder’s first major foray into Batman from just prior to Pre-Flashpoint with artists Jock and Francesco Francavilla, which is certainly a factor in what landed him his iconic New 52 Batman run!
