$30K STRETCH GOAL UNLOCKED & EXCLUSIVE PRODUCTION!

2026-09-15 21:08:49 

Dear Backer,

We've been hard at work on the 96-page Shi: Senryaku 30th Anniversary Zoop Exclusive Collected Edition. At first we were merely scanning in the original pages to reproduce, but our designer Mindy Lopkin suggested that to make the book as beautiful as possible, we actually should go all-out and produce an entirely new edition based off of all original art files (not scanned comic pages) and re-letter the entire book using the original fonts...

And I have to say, it's looking phenomenal!

All omnibus editions are at the Zoop warehouse. The 30th Anniversary Edition, all stretch goal packs will be delivered and all omnibus sketch editions will be complete by the end of this month.

We have received messages from people who missed our brief 21-day campaign so if you missed the initial offer, fear not as you can contact Zoop directly to set up a personal pledge. Since we've heard from others wanting to pledge we are discussing how to either open to extend the campaign and/or open our very own Crusade Comics Zoop store. We will let you all know in the next coming weeks.

Again, THANK YOU for all your support and faith and we cannot wait to get you your Shi: Senryaku Omnibus and Shi: Senryaku 30th Anniversary Zoop Exclusive Collected Edition.

Crise Nas Infinitas Terras Boxset (Assinatura) (Brazil)

Sep 25, 2026 | 10:14:37 PM | Vu

There may be something lost in translation, but from what I've pieced together, it looks like this special Crisis on Infinite Earths 14 volume set was announced in December 2025.  Panini Brazil is selling these books as a subscription at $15 USD at 30% off for subscribing (conversion may change depending on exchange rate) a month. If you choose to buy single books only, the retail price is about $20.

If each books ships once a month, you will be spending over $210 (with the discount) to complete the collection - which will come in a boxset.  It may actually be more (or less) expensive, but comparing that to the original DC's Crisis Boxset, which retailed for $500... paying it once a month for over a year is an easier pill to swallow.

Anyway, the first Crise volume only started shipping in late May 2026 (six months after it was announced).  Volume 5, which was supposed to be shipped this month (September) is delayed until October.  If it still on schedule, all 14 books will be released around July 2027.

Here is the translation (let me know if there are any errors in translation or if I'm mis-understanding something):

George Perez's Terra and Geo-Force costume designs

Sep 25, 2026 | 07:09:21 PM | Vu

Michael Lovitz writes:

These appear to be the original designs for both Terra and Geo-Force, a nice piece of Titans (and DC in general) history. 

When I saw this piece listed, I did some digging and found the following from a 2013 interview with ComicsAlliance with Mike W. Barr, who recalled when speaking about Geo-Force's creation:

"Len Wein and I worked out what the new characters would be and sent descriptions to Jim, saying 'Draw these up and see what you think.' Jim submitted his visual ideas for those characters, with the exception of Geo-Force, who turned out to be the brother of Terra from The New Teen Titans. I'm pretty sure George Perez designed that costume, because it was based on Terra's costume ... We decided even before the book was printed that that would be the connection between the two characters. I had not known about the character. She was still in the planning stages when I came up with the idea for Geo-Force, and Len said 'Well, we have this other character with Earth powers in New Teen Titans, what are we going to do about that?' Marv Wolfman was brought in on the discussion of that, and it was Marv's idea that they'd be half-brother and sister."

Did you know Joe Staton had to redraw the Millennium #1 cover due to some changes on costumes (note: Blue Beetle) and faces (note: Looker & Halo) - also justice for Salaak, who was dropped off the published cover. The book was three weeks late, according to the interview with Joe Staton (see link)... the colorist just gave up and color the whole cover green.

Excerpt from DC in the 80s interview:

Since the book was so late -- and it was at a time that there were a lot of changes going into the DC books (a lot of costumes were changing and different things) -- basically I penciled with what information I had, Ian inked with what he had, and then the whole thing came back to the production department who kind of re-drew things on the fly trying to make everybody's costume look right before it went out.

After purchasing the Blokee Darth Vader, I looked online and it seems like the Blokee Nightwing is ready to ship and in stock for $20.  If you're a Nightwing collector, check out the model kit.  I probably won't buy it - unless I randomly see it in stores, then I might reconsider.

I recently put together a Blokee Darth Vader, and as usual, it has amazing articulation with great details.  It comes with a display stand and a footpeg so you can stand him in place. Vader stands about six inches tall and you can pass this on as a regular action figure. Normally, with model kits, they can be very light because of the plastic and hollow-ness... but Vader seems pretty solid.  The only thing I didn't like is that his light saber is molded into his hand.

5 ‘Batman’ Comics From the 1980s That Prove Frank Miller Is a Genius

By Collier Jennings | Published Sep 10, 2026, 8:46 AM EDT

For over 85 years, Batman has remained one of the few superheroes with a massive foothold in pop culture. He dominates television, movies, and video games, but most importantly, he's still a major figure in comics. Plenty of creators have had their chance to put their stamp on the Dark Knight, whether it's Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta radically shaking up his mythos in Absolute Batman or Chip Zdarsky and Jorge Jimenez creating the terrifying artificial intelligence known as Failsafe. Most Batman fans would argue that one creator's had an impact on the character that lasts to this day, whether it's through his work or other stories.

(excerpt)

For all the grit and violence that The Dark Knight Returns brings to the table, it also features a ray of hope in the form of Carrie Kelly, who becomes the new Robin under Batman's tutelage. A similar approach appears in the highly underrated Batman: A Lonely Place of Dying. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated by Jim Aparo and George Perez, A Lonely Place of Dying shows that Batman is growing more violent and reckless following Jason Todd's death. To shake him out of his funk, Tim Drake, a teenager who discovered Batman's secret identity, attempts to convince Dick Grayson to become Robin again. However, in a twist of fate, Tim ends up becoming the new Robin.

McFarlane Robin (Silver Age) action figure out now

Sep 04, 2026 | 03:49:16 PM | Vu

I'm seeing reports that people who pre-ordered the McFarlane Robin Silver Age action figure have received their figures.  Keep your eyes out, if it hasn't arrived to your address yet.  As far as I know, it sold out in less than five minutes, so you're lucky if you got one.

Note: McFarlane's website lists that the figure shipped in August, so hopefully you got the figure before Labor Day.

Esteban Maroto's Zatanna

Sep 01, 2026 | 02:05:05 AM | Vu

I find these things really interesting. I am only speculating, but it looks to me that Esteban Maroto's Zatanna redesign was originally punk/goth. Maybe the editor or writer (Lee Marrs) asked for a more sophisticated look. The colorist might have misunderstood that she's not wearing a shirt.
