It’s Father’s Day soon and DC are releasing several new collectible figures and books in time for the occasion. The figures are Superman, Aquaman and Atomica. The graphic novels include Harley Quinn, Dark Night: A True Batman Story, The Flash, Green Arrow, a “surreal project” from Gilbert Hernandez (Love and Rockets) and Darwyn Cooke (DC: THE NEW FRONTIER) called The Twilight Children and Unfollow, a story about “a dying social media mogul leaves his billions to be split between 140 random people – or however many are still alive at his death”. There’s got to be something there for your father, but they’d also make a great gift for any DC loving nerd in your life (or for yourself).

Father’s Day Gift Ideas: DC Comics and Graphic Novels
This is a Batman story like no other—the harrowing and eloquent autobiographical tale of writer Paul Dini’s courageous struggle to overcome a desperate situation. The Caped Crusader has been the all-abiding icon of justice and authority for generations. But in this surprising original graphic novel, we see Batman in a new light—as the savior who helps a discouraged man recover from a brutal attack that left him unable to face the world.
Eric Kripke (creator of Supernatural) teams up with Vertigo veterans John Higgins (HELLBLAZER) and Glenn Fabry (PREACHER) to bring you a very Vertigo take on the modern superhero in this six-issue miniseries. Josh Jaffe, a neurotic family man mid-midlife crisis, buys an online “smart pill” to increase his focus and jolt him out of his slump. But to Josh’s surprise, the pill gives him incredible strength and power—but its cost is that it’s extremely addictive. This irreverent and brutally realistic story examines both the mighty highs and humiliating lows of being a real-life superhero.
For the first time ever, legendary comics creators Gilbert Hernandez (Love and Rockets) and Darwyn Cooke (DC: THE NEW FRONTIER) have joined forces for a surreal project unlike anything you’ve ever read before!
