Spotlight: DC/Marvel: Batman/Deadpool #1

As noted above, this issue is the one to watch this week. The convergence of:

• #1 issue (first appearance of this crossover format)
• Big-name characters (Batman + Deadpool)
• Major creators (Grant Morrison, Dan Mora)
• Numerous variant covers (card-stock, foil, wraparound)
  Collector tip: Pre-order several variants if your shop allows. The card-stock and foil variants are likely going to be the most sought after. Ensure you ask about retailer-exclusives or incentive covers early.

Things to Look Forward To (Later This Week / Upcoming)

• Keep an eye on other titles listed for 11/19 & beyond, like The New Gods #12 (of 12), Nightwing #132, Titans #29.
• Watch pre-order numbers going into next week — a good collector tip is: if your shop has low allocation, get in early.
• Variant covers of major titles tend to spike post-release once demand shows up in the market, so securing them early is smart.
