Geek Syndicate 13 - Scott Snyder and Jim Lee’s Superman epic begins. (DC Comics - June) Little is properly known about the project other than it will be an additional Superman book but it will likely launch around the time the new Superman movie (Man of Steel) hits in June. So there we have it – my picks of what to look forward to this year. As always, this isn’t everything but it should certainly give some good starting points and whet your appetite for the coming year. As it stands, 2013 is shaping up to be another great one for Geeks and geekstuff. Dean Simons Image © DC Comics, 2012 Scott Snyder reinvigorated the Batman comic book series, turning it into a frequent topseller following the DC Comics New 52 re-launch. With major Batman story arcs “The Court of Owls” and “Death of the Family” topping the charts alongside critical acclaim, the hotshot DC scribe will bring his Midas touch to the Man from Krypton, alongside fan favourite artist Jim Lee. 9
