Last but not least, did anyone see the latest Demon Slayer “movie”? In case you don’t know what I mean, there was a Demon Slayer movie in select theaters. The movie wasn’t like Mugen Train more or less. The movie was actually a combination of the last two episodes of the Entertainment District arc and the first episode of the Swordsmith Village arc.

[Manga news] DC manga joins DC digital comic subscription

One Operation JOKER Archives - Bounding Into Comics

If Marvel can give us Deadpool Samurai, DC comics can do the same with Superman, Batman and the Joker. It’s been reported that three Japanese DC manga will be coming to English release on the DC Universe Infinite platform. Much like Marvel’s comic subscription, Marvel Unlimited, DC Universe Infinite allows users to pay a subscription to read digital comics from DC and Vertigo. Here is the three DC manga that will be localized for English readers:

  1. Joker: One Operation Joker
  2. Batman: Justice Buster
  3. Superman vs. Meshi

These three new manga will be available first on digital via subscription. The print version of the manga will be released later this year in 2023.

Joker: One Operation Joker

Joker: One Operation Joker

Joker: One Operation Joker is the Joker like you’ve never seen him before…as a single father?!

After a fateful encounter with Batman that results in the Dark Knight de-aging to a baby, Joker takes it upon himself to raise the child into the crusader of justice! But does the Clown Prince of Crime really understand what it means to be Batman—or, more importantly, what it means to raise a baby all by yourself? Joker: One Operation Joker is written by Satoshi Miyagawa (Uchuu Senkan Tiramisu) with art by Keisuke Gotou.

Batman: Justice Buster

Batman: Justice Buster

In Batman: Justice Buster, Gotham City has been under the protection of Batman for only a short amount of time, but since the vigilante’s appearance, crime has changed. It’s gotten more bold, more destructive.

As Batman tries to rise to meet these new threats, he develops a computer system, ROBIN, to help him analyze and subdue the rising criminal tide and hopefully one day put an end to crime in Gotham.

Batman: Justice Buster is written and illustrated by Eiichi Shimizu and Tomohiro Shimoguchi (Ultraman).

Superman vs. Mesh

Superman vs. Meshi

It’s hungry work being Superman! That’s why every day for lunch in Superman vs. Meshi, Superman makes a quick stop over in Japan to try a new chain restaurant. Whether it’s a hearty bowl of curry or conveyor-belt sushi, the Man of Steel loves to indulge in the delectable delicacies the country has to offer. He’ll even share a meal with the other members of the Justice League from time to time in the hopes of showing them an incredible culinary experience.

Superman vs. Meshi is written by Satoshi Miyagawa with art by Kai Kitago.
