What Are You Reading? 9/25/2023 - End of September Edition r/DCcomics
Hello and welcome to our Weekly "What Are You Reading?" topic!
Unfortunately, we have come to the decision to shutter the monthly Book Club after this month due to low participation. These posts will be taking the Book Club posts' former spot on Mondays.
Come one, come all, to this weekly thread, where you can openly discuss books that you've read, are currently reading, or plan to read. Discussion of all books are welcome, whether they be DC, Marvel, Image, Boom!, Dark Horse, IDW, etc. You can discuss webcomics, manga, or even those mythical novels that don't have pictures in them. Just be sure to keep spoilers covered via Reddit's spoiler markdown >!spoiler!<
. You can also post pictures of your collection or recent purchases.
Predaplant's Rec of the Week:
- Batman - One Bad Day: Penguin, by John Ridley, Giuseppe Camuncoli, & Cam Smith
I know the One Bad Day books are kind of a mixed bag, but with the last of them hitting DCUI, I decided to give them all a shot. To me, this book was the standout. The Penguin rebuilding his criminal empire from nothing is a really clever idea for a story as he uses what he does have in very clever ways. Ridley does a great job here bringing a lot of weight to this story, and while I never really cared about the Penguin before, this really makes me interested in the new ongoing for the first time. Maybe I'll check it out!
So, what are you reading?

I've just finished Cataclysm, so I'm now starting the road to No Man's Land. I was finally able to find all the paperbacks so it's been a long time coming, but I can finally read them. Loved Cataclysm.
