Next week is the 19th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics May 7 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics April 30 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Things get explosive for Birds of Prey, Absolute Braniac, New 52 omnis for Suicide Squad & Nightwing, Atom Project & Black Canary deliver their finales, Zdarsky’s final Batman collection, compact Kingdom Come, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Despite my heart beating faster just from thinking of reading Absolute Superman (2024) #7, this week I have to go with Birds of Prey (2023) #21 from Kelly Thompson, Sami Basri, Adriano Lucas, and Clayton Cowles! The script for issue #20 was nearly as good as the instant-classic script for #1, and the cliffhanger has had me wanting a follow-up all month long!

This post includes every comic out from DC Comics May 7 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

A word of warning – despite overall loving DC’s output right now, this is probably my least-favorite release week slate from DC in each month. Buckle up for some ruthless reviews.

This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and review every in-continuity series with a new issue out this week. Plus, for most new releases, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to DC Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

Next week is the 18th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics April 30 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics April 23 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Ewing does Detective, Grodd’s reign continues in Waid’s League, All-In Special hits paperback, Power Company recharges, a Silver Lantern omnibus, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: It’s slim pickings this week, but there’s one book I’m sure everyone is curious about: Al Ewing writing Batman in Detective Comics (1937 / 2016) Annual 1/2025! Despite my slight weariness with Ewing in 2025, I have to admit I’m curious to see what he’ll do with a single issue story of Batman. Ewing could be a fine writer to take up the “creepy detective story” vibe of Dark Patterns when the Dan Watters & Hayden Sherman maxi-series ends.

This post includes every comic out from DC Comics April 30 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats. April 30 is the fifth Wednesday of the month and DC does not typically release issues of ongoing series on a fifth week. Instead, this week we have a chapter of a maxi-series, the conclusion of a mini-series, and several one-shots and annuals – as well as Free Comic Book Day.

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

This week in DC Comics: Absolute Diana in the underworld and martians seeing colors, Nightwing Rebirth in omnibus, an anonymous Power Girl ends, Superman vs. Lex (yawn), Finest Superman Family, H2sh stumbles into a second chapter, Deluxe Dark Knights of Steel, Flash gets eclipsed, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Of course my pick is Absolute Martian Manhunter (2025) #2! Issue one was so damn good I wrote a whole song about it that I haven’t stopped singing for an entire month! But, there are a lot of great issues out from DC this week that I can’t wait to read. They’re crushing it right now.

Next week is the 16th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics April 16 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics April 9 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Superman Day kicks off the Summer of Superman, Absolute Rogues, Waid’s “We Are Yesterday” begins in the past, a Five Years Later reprint five years later, the sharp edges of Zatanna’s mystery, the Sonic League, conflicts explode in The New Gods, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: There are a lot of heavyweight issues out this week that I considered. Last month, picking Detective Comics gave me a surefire winner because Taylor & Janin’s run has just been that damn good. And, I’m very tempted to pick Christopher Cantwell’s Challengers of the Unknown (2024) #5 (of 5… or 6). But, I’m going with Jamal Campbell’s Zatanna (2025) #3. Last issue was wildly entertaining and gave us terrific contrast from the debut issue. Plus, there’s no one else in comics who draws quite like Campbell.

Next week is the 15th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics April 9 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics April 2 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Batman’s Absolute second arc, G. Willow Wilson’s superstar Superman, Finest Batgirl, Aquaman lost in The Blue, Deluxe Fudd by King & Weeks, Snyder & Tynion’s League hits omnibus, Lantern’s journey to the center of Thanagar, the Dark Patterns of a talking tower, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: I know I’m supposed to pick Batman: Dark Patterns (2024) #5 because we are all obsessed with Dark Patterns. And I’m sure it will be amazing, especially after last month’s final page! But, folks, I am just too dang curious about another final reveal from last month – the one that’s leading into Green Lantern Corps (2025) #3. After a gorgeous and super-tense issue #2, I absolutely need to know what’s going on with Thanagar’s unexpected golden center! I’m so curious I would pay extra to read it right now.
