Hello and welcome back to Saturday Morning Panels! You know the drill. Each week the Multiversity staff lovingly scours the new releases to find you, our dear reader, our favorite panels and moments. And we have a fantastic line up for you this week!
Since it’s Labor Day weekend and the traditional end of summer here in the United States, we also have a few selections of things our staff have been reading on their summer vacations.
So kick-back, watch out for spoilers, and talk about your favorites in the comments section below! Stay safe, wash your hands, and support your local comic shop (from a safe social distance).

“Batman: New Gotham Vol. 1”: I miss this era of “Detective Comics.” Such fantastic use of limited color. Comedic and dramatic timing. A rounded out cast of supporting characters. Bruce Wayne doing shit not as Batman! Glorious. – Elias Rosner

“BTTM FDRS”: Me, when caught monching on midnight chocolate. – Elias Rosner

Writer: Matt Fraction; Artist: Rachael Stott

Law and Order? – Kate Kosturski

Writer: Matt Fraction; Artist: Rachael Stott

“Young Justice” #18: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. This should’ve taken 6 issues and at least 27 two-page spreads to accomplish, not one panel. – Elias Rosner
