Clayface: Celebrity Dirt #1 turns Basil Karlo's Hollywood comeback into an identity mystery when another Clayface who also believes he is Basil Karlo escapes and begins searching for himself. Fury of Firestorm #4 reframes Professor Stein as a manipulative figure when Lorraine Reilly learns she was also used in his attempt to control the Firestorm Matrix. Bleeding Hearts #6 forces Poke to choose a side when his beating heart is revealed. Barbara Gordon: Breakout #3 uses flashbacks to a mission with Nightwing, Cassandra Cain and Huntress to help Barbara realize the pills she has been taking may be drugging her. Absolute Catwoman #2 reveals more of Selina Kyle's past with the Calicos while centering the heist around the Yarn, an object with possible Brainiac links. Supergirl #15 concludes the Hero of Kandor storyline featuring Kara's final showdown with Black Flame with the future of Kandor in the balance, while Lesla continues her hero's journey. Emperor Aquaman #15 has Batman and Wonder Woman question whether the Justice League could stop Aquaman as Arthur's power as king of the blue expands across the galaxy. Absolute Batman #22 reveals Absolute Harley Quinn's connection to Jack Grimm while Batman ignores her warnings and falls deeper into Scarecrow's psychological trap. Green Lantern Corps #18 uses Guy Gardner's perspective to reframe the emotional entities as sentient beings who deserve respect instead of weapons to be deployed against the Manhunters. They also give a rundown of this week's collected editions, reprints and facsimile releases. As always, all books are ranked from top to bottom and each host gives a Book of the Week pick.","meta_description":"Jace and Rocky break down all 9 DC releases for the week of July 8, 2026.
