The Pull: A Look at the Comics Dropping the Week of November 19th

Hoo boy, it is a Grant Morrison heavy week here. So, let’s get straight into it, as I highlight my buys, recommendations, and curiosities from the week of comics in The Pull, led by a double dose of Morrison.

Comic of the Week: DC/Marvel: Batman/Deadpool #1

As you likely know, Grant Morrison joined Off Panel this week and talked about this book. They suggested that it’s less of the metaphysical car crash it was described as in solicits and more of a blockbuster romp featuring one seriously odd couple. Some might have been disappointed by that. I was not. I love blockbuster Morrison! I’m here for it! Let’s see what you have in store for us, Grant and Dan Mora! And I can’t wait to read those backups!

Trade/Graphic Novel of the Week: We3: DC Compact Comics Edition

Speaking of Morrison and that episode of Off Panel, I talked about We3 on there without realizing the DC Compact Comics edition of that series they did with artist Frank Quitely was arriving this week. Now that I know it is, I have to make a declaration: This is my favorite thing Morrison has ever done. I love this comic so, so, so much. It’s an all-timer, and one of the most special showcases of what comics are capable of from the history of the medium. If you’ve never read it before, treat yourself and pick up this new edition, because it’s comic booking at its finest.
