So, 2020 was kind of a dumpster fire with the COVID-19 pandemic & social distancing making many plans undoable for many people & the deaths of millions worldwide & over 300,000 in the U.S. alone. It also caused a huge loss in the Spring of the year for the comic book community, with part of March, all of April, and part of May not having any new comic book releases, & many stores also closed due to state restriction guidelines. In spite of all of this, I was doing whatever I could to give my regular local comic store business. I really don't want to see the niche market fall away. So, I thought I'd blog about the comics I bought that were released in 2020, with an attempt at ranking them according to my reading enjoyment level. I'm starting with DC here, my first love.
