Small list but still some good picks. I also have two new books on my list: Inferno (Marvel) and the miniseries Secret War Journal (Marvel).
This is the last week of Convergence and like I said last week I'm sad to see it end. These were a good group of stories. They really made me miss the pre-New 52. I'm not exactly thrilled with the upcoming DC You (or New 49 as some call it), especially not with the poor treatment that Lois Lane and Clark Kent/Superman will be getting. Well, now that's a discussion for another post.
Anyway, here is my list for the week:
DC Comics
Book: Batman '66 #23
Description:
Two villains from Batman's classic Rogues Gallery get the '66 treatment in two separate stories! First, Hilda, aunt of Marsha Queen of Diamonds, messes with forces beyond her control and brings forth Solomon Grundy.
Then, when False Face goes looking for a shape-shifting formula, he ends up creating Clayface!
Book: Convergence #8 (of 8)

Dynamite Entertainment
Book: Red Sonja #16
Description:
From the acclaimed creative team of Gail Simone and Walter Geovanni, the final chapter in the epic "Forgiving of Monsters" saga finds the She-Devil with a Sword besieged from every side. A parasitic infestation, an intensely personal grudge, an imperiled Astronomer, and an entire kingdom on the verge of homicidal fury have all led to a showdown so bloody and explosive, it surely lives up to - or even exceeds - the Red Sonja series' reputation of swords-and-sorcery excellence!
IDW Publishing

Description:
The Powerpuff Girls enlist Mojo Jojo to help them catch Dee Dee before the entire multiverse falls apart! What could possibly go wrong?

Book: Inferno #1

Spinning out of the universe-shattering events of Secret Wars comes a new twist on the X-Men classic that's a whole hell of a lot hotter than you remember.
5 years ago a band of demons rose up out of the fiery depths and turned Manhattan into Hell on Earth. The X-Men fought to vanquish the demon horde and... The X-Men failed.
Welcome back to the Inferno.
On this the fifth anniversary of Manhattan's fall, Piotr Rasputin is leading a small band of mutants back into the Inferno. Colossus doesn't know what they'll find on the other side of those flames but he knows for certain... They're not coming back without his sister.

Description:
