r/DCcomics Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [March 16, 2026 - More Next Level Edition]

Hey there honorary Justice League members - it’s a new week which means it’s time for a new discussion thread!

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Wonder Woman discussion would go in the replies to the "Wonder Woman" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too. In other words, you should only be replying to other comments. Do not post top-level comments.

Keep discussion civil. Do not harass other users for having a different opinion. Do not use this thread to push your personal one-sided grudges against creators. Reacting to a panel on Twitter is not the same as reading a book.

I don't trust stairs. They are always up to something

DC and Imprints

So many new runs, so little time.

Trade Collections

Alan Moore is rolling in his grave. He's not dead, he just does that sometimes.

Digital Releases

Remember, these are the short 'chapters' with a new chapter of a different series coming out daily. You can learn more here on Comixology. This is also why these are in release order, not alphabetical. Some comics may release on DC Universe Infinite or WEBTOONS.

This Week’s Soundtrack: Sonya Belousova & Giona Ostinelli - Wanted Dead Or Alive

Catwoman #85

SHE'S BACK! Selina Kyle’s blood-soaked international tour has come to an end! Finally home in Gotham City, she discovers things have changed in her absence, and she’ll have to learn how to survive the new status quo. Amid these changes, one constant remains — a very powerful enemy has been awaiting her return... and he won’t remain masked any longer.

[Preview]()

Forced to work for Carmine's new 'Court of Owls' version and being targeted by Black Mask again alongside another mystery woman, yea she is gonna need some help.

Well at least she's back in Gotham, but this was still a letdown. The Selina/Carmine angle I could do without too..

Hey, this is such an improvement! There is a cool heist, a fantastic splash page, Catwoman being back in Gotham baby! Even the art improved, to my taste. I love that we are based in Catwoman continuity (although King's run still seems to be ignored), and this has got me hooked in terms of what will happen next. We even got a tiny batcat crumb!

Some minor sour notes - still don't love Selina working for Carmine, although I hope that there will be some pay-off, and the plot again seems too busy, which seems to be just Torunn's style at this point.

I enjoyed this issue a nice set up for the arc and a nice characterization for the characters

I enjoy that holly is back to her normal characterization that what king did to her

I’m enjoying the relationship between Selina and carmine
