Y'a pas un film qui va sortir là?

[Slobo]

Merci vivement l’appli DC

[Dhargo]

Et bé, y a un ptit peu de Suicide Squad ! ^^''''
Mais un seul titre les concernant pour moi :


Suicide Squad 6
Pennyworth 1
Aquaman 80th Anniv 1 à 9.99$, pas plus, ça me fait déjà assez mal...
Blue and Gold 2
Infinite Frontier 4, 5
Robin 5
Superman Red and Blue 6
Swamp Thing 6
Wonder Woman Black and Gold 3


Et vont pas nous faire un Green Lantern Black and Green ? Quoique, 2 fois Green dans le titre, ça ferait bizarre...
