NCBD week 48: 550 new variants for a total of 233 new issues

November is almost coming to an end, but not before we celebrate one more New Comic Book Day!

This time we take a deep dive into the world of the Hulk family in #19 of The Incredible Hulk, Vol. 4. Expect 64 pages of bone-crushing action!

Over at DC Comics we join The Justice League in their ongoing battle with evil. We travel to space, we visit the Watchtower, we fight some baddies and maybe, just maybe, we will meet some very familiar faces along the way in #1 of Justice League Unlimited, Vol. 2.

In #4 of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Vol. 6 Donatello finds himself trapped in a zoo where he’s forced to fight other combatants for the sheer entertainment of others. I bet you will have a shell of a time with this particular issue!

Happy Reading!

BTW: In today’s NCBD report, we introduce a new section “CLZ Staff Picks, featuring our content team’s favorite new releases. This section replaces the Most Variants section, as that was becoming less interesting, with the same series reappearing as the “winner” every few weeks.

Is there any way I can still get this information? I am on a comic book podcast and one of our segments is called “Variant Insanity”. Our followers, in the chat, can guess the title and number of variants each week. I have created an awesome spreadsheet which shows this information via a PIE chart.

@VenomFan77, I have send you a PM
