A ruthless new gang of criminals known only as Nightwalkers is terrorizing Gotham, and the city’s elite are being taken out one by one. SOLICITATION: This action-packed graphic novel based on the New York Times bestselling novel by Marie Lu transports readers to the shadowy gates of Arkham Asylum, where Gotham City’s darkest mysteries reside…and which now threatens to imprison young Bruce Wayne. Writer: Marie Lui, adapted by Stuart Moore And it was the best of the bunch, in my opinion! BATMAN : NIGHTWALKER GN I saw that one of them was going to focus on Batman, my favorite character, so I was all in. I delved into several of them, including Mera and Super Sons, and I enjoyed them. They often are preachy, with not much substance to them. I’ve always viewed Young Adult (YA) novels and graphic novels skeptically. ![]() ![]() ![]() You'll always save at least 25% on any paperback you order. Comparing the conflicts surrounding race in the 1960s to the conflicts present today will provide for interesting classroom discussions on social class, prejudice, and justice in society. Pairing this novel with a work of nonfiction about the civil rights movement or its leaders will give students a more realistic look at the struggles of African Americans during this time period. While The Help will act as a great introduction to segregation in the 1960s, many critics have claimed that it is not realistic enough. Providing this context will allow the student to fully understand the fear that initially prevents the maids from collaborating with Skeeter and the lack of support Skeeter receives from her friends and family. This novel should be accompanied by an in-depth look at the segregation in the country, specifically the South, and the civil rights movement during the 1960s. ![]() ![]() This book explores the racial tensions that existed in 1960s Mississippi through the relationships of the maids with the households for whom they work. The Help is a novel that will provide useful insights into the social climate of the civil rights movement. ![]() 6/9/2023 0 Comments Fables dc![]() ![]() Far more in-depth this issue is a plot centering around a character named Jack in the Green, based around an obscure English folk tale. He seems to be cast as a lawful-neutral character coming to clean up Gepetto’s messes. The introduction of Peter Pan and Tinkerbell, some of the biggest characters missing from the original story, is intriguing. ![]() And at the same time, a lot of new and old players head on to new adventures. ![]() ![]() It helps that there’s a good entry point-Fabletown has just been exposed to the world after the epic final battle, and King Cole has to welcome the Mundys within its destroyed walls and explain to them what they’ve been missing. This revival doesn’t have those problems, and does a good job of reacquainting us with its very complex world. Does it hold up? The original series had a brilliant first third, but many felt it became scattered and overly dark and cruel afterwards. A recent team-up of Bigby Wolf and Batman didn’t make many waves and was hard to place in continuity, but now the original series returns for a twelve-issue engagement with the original art team on board. Ray: After a 150-issue run and countless spin-offs (mostly by frequent Willingham collaborators Lilah Sturges and Chris Roberson), Fables came to an end with an expansive epilogue that seemed to be the end of the road-until now.

Eric, my best man, and I are friends from high school, and we even went to our first WWF show together. My groomsmen were true friends, men who I feel honored to even know, let alone have the right to call “friend.” All three of them were huge wrestling fans – in fact, that’s how a lot of us met.
