Joker Creator and Nerdy Magazine Day 12/13/11

Starting this entry off by sharing the sad news of Jerry Robinson, creator of The Joker (among others) has passed away last Wednesday at the age of 89. Sympathy goes out to his family, and of course, a huge thanks for the clown goes to Jerry wherever he may be.

And this coming Wednesday, or Nerdy Magazine Day, it looks like it will be Batwoman #4 and Batgirl #4 for my Nerdy (daughter), and it will be Batman & Robin #4 as well as Green Lantern #4.

In Detective Comics #4 we find out more about NoBody and his intentions to "turn Damian to the Darkside". Which I think may be the general story direction of this title for a little while at least. Also, apparently we get a look at NoBody's origin in this one, it will be interesting to see I guess, I admit that it is hard to embrace new villains. I am getting back into comic books, and with the relaunch I am curious as to what is going on with those who already exsist. Even more so now that they are apparently redoing Harley Quinn's origin over in Suicide Squad (not happy at all with this one).

Over in Green Lantern #4 we go further into Sinestro's battle against his former corps. Could this be the end for the Yellow Lanterns? Or as we know them at least? I don't see Sinestro getting taken out in this, so I question where they are taking the corps that feeds off fear. Similar to Red Lanterns perhaps? Or will Sinestro simply fend them off, and face them at a later date? I do know this, I am interested in seeing what happen to Hal Jordan. We last see him getting "killed". Is he really dead? This soon into the relaunch? and with him still over in Justice League? See why my interest is here? aha
