On the Shelf & Beyond – June 2023

On the Shelf & Beyond

Currently we are excited to have on our shelves an amazing point of view story in Nightwing #105. An issues done completely from Dick Grayson’s perspective. A neat idea for the medium.

Loki #1 came out strong with beautiful covers and a great story steeped in humor and classic Norse Mythology.

Our favorite Samurai rabbit teams up with the turtles in the 4th issue of an exciting series.

We are currently looking forward to the first week of July, when the DC sweeping Knight Terrors begins its’ 4 issue story arc. Begging the question what are heroes afraid of? And why’s it look like the Joker has an office job? Here at the Forge we’re urging everyone to watch their fingers and toes around the grill this Fourth of July.
