DC Comics announces Lego month with themed variant covers
DC Comics' themed variant cover months must be doing well. Last month it was Batman 75, this month it's selfies, but November might have the coolest theme of all: Lego.
The theme is to celebrate the upcoming release of the next instalment in the Lego Batman series of video games, Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, aka Batman goes to space to fight Brainiac, which includes over 150 characters from the DC Universe.
There will be 22 variant covers for Lego month, with designs based on the Zero Month covers from September last year, featuring some of our favourite heroes and villains in glorious minifig style.
The 22 comics to be splashed with Lego art are:
Action Comics #36Aquaman #36Batgirl #36Batman #36Batman & Robin #36Batman/Superman #16Catwoman #36Detective Comics #36Grayson #4Green Lantern #36Green Lantern Corps #36Harley Quinn #12Justice League #36Justice League Dark #36Justice League United #6Sinestro #7Supergirl #36Superman #36Superman/Wonder Woman #13Teen Titans #4The Flash #36Wonder Woman #36You can click through the gallery below for a selection of the covers, or visit the DC Comics blog for links to them all. We gotta say, though, October's Halloween monster variants are looking pretty amazing too.

Nineteen euros won't buy you much in this day and age, but it will buy you a no-frills phone from Nokia. The Nokia 130 is an old-school mobile phone at an old-school price, with basic smartphone features like music and video in a phone that will last over a month before it needs juicing up.
This new phone is one of the first to be announced since Microsoft bought the phone-manufacturing part of Finnish company Nokia -- and, per Microsoft's plans to ditch the brand, perhaps one of the last phones to have Nokia written on it. It's a candy bar phone with a 1.8-inch colour screen above an old-fashioned nine-button keypad, with soft keys in the middle. The 130 comes encased in white, black or red.
Basic it may be, but there's still a few features that you'd find on a more powerful smartphone, including music and video. Powered by Series 30
