Dark Knights of Steel: Allwinter #1 (DC, July 2024) variant cover by Francesco Mattina
Out this week: Waller vs. Wildstorm (DC Black Label, $24.99):
DC collects this well-regarded miniseries by Spencer Ackerman, Evan Narcisse and Jesus Merino into one volume. It combines elements from the DCU and Wildstorm, as Jackson King and Amanda Waller battle for control of the agency known as Checkmate.
New York Times best-selling writer Jay Kristoff (Empire of the Vampire, The Aurora Cycle, The Nevernight Chronicle) and artist Tirso Cons make their DC series debut, in Dark Knights of Steel: Allwinter.
In this new series, the snows fall thick, blood runs black, and color itself is only a distant memory. The legendary assassin Deathstroke stalks a frozen wasteland, killing for coin among a nation of ever-warring jarls. But when our murderer for hire finds himself cast in the role of reluctant guardian, will he fight to end the icy curse destroying his land, or be consumed by the sins of his own dark past?
Coming from DC in 2024 as part of their relaunched Elseworlds line
