DC Week-In-Review: Two New DC Games...Two Very Different Versions of...
Just in time: LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES co-feature
You saw the preview of ADVENTURE COMICS #1 over at IGN, but the fun doesn't stop there. We've got a first-look at that series' co-feature, THE LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, from some guy named Johns and artist Clayton Henry.
CODENAME: PATRIOT continues in ACTION COMICS #880
Now that you've gotten the lowdown on CODENAME: PATRIOT from our very own Matt Idelson, we've got a few preview pages from the second installment, written by Greg Rucka with art by artist Julian Lopez (with another installment of Rucka and James Robinson's CAPTAIN ATOM, featuring art by CAFU).
Matt Idelson talks CODENAME: PATRIOT
A rare non-rainy day and I find myself trapped indoors with Wil Moss, putting the finishing touches on SUPERMAN #691, the fourth and final chapter of our latest Superman crossover, “Codename: Patriot”. While Wil goes over some dialogue tweaks involving the not-so-nice General Lane with James Robinson, I’m going over David Curiel’s colors.
Two-Face makes his move as 'Long Shadows' continues in BATMAN #689
Isn't that a lovely Andy Kubert cover? You know what's better than that? Having an Andy Kubert cover with interiors by Mark Bagley. Words from Judd Winick don't hurt either. And here, in the second installment of the three-part "Long Shadows" arc, we find the newly-minted Batman scrambling to retrieve the Arkham Asylum escapees, while Two-Face begins a ground war of his own.
Talk about an odd couple: RED ROBIN and Ra's team up
Well, you heard the RED ROBIN news, so why not check out some pages hitting stores next week?
Some Tuesday news: THE GREAT TEN
It's a short week here at The Source, what with our last summer Friday looming. Then it's back to the drain of five-day work weeks. Frightening, huh?
But we've got a ton of stuff lined up to show off in the next few days, so no worries. And we know how much you like teaser art. What's better than that? Well, teaser art and news, no?
Who is BATGIRL?
Well, you'll have to wait until 8/19 for more clues. But, we do have a first look at interiors from the first issue, by writer Bryan Q. Miller and artist Lee Garbett, plus a variant cover by Cully Hamner. Nice way to start the week, huh?
Start your guessing!

'This ain't your grandfather's Doc Savage... or your father's Batman.'
We decided Brian Azzarello put it best, so why try and spruce things up with a cheeky headline?
Unveiling THE BATMAN/DOC SAVAGE SPECIAL
Did you think we'd have only one bit of news on Thursday? Well, think again.
As we've noted here, we'll be seeing a lot more of Doc Savage in the pages of DC comics in the near future. Now, we can actually give you a tad more, detail-wise.
Some Thursday news: Meet the new artist on RED ROBIN, Marcus To
Counting down the hours until the weekend? Aren't we all? Well, we've got some news and art for you, so time can crawl by a bit faster.
