Love, National Allied Style

DC Comics have announced that they’ll release two comics that have love in their heart just in time for Valentine’s Day. Which is February 14. You didn’t forget, did you? Again? You jerk.

First is the just released Justice League Volume 2, which collects issues 7 through 12 of the supergroup series, including the one with the infamous kiss between Superman and Wonder Woman. And some other stuff happens, too. The hardcover collection is $24.99.

Next, this week sees the release of Young Romance: A New 52 Valentine’s Special #1, which features stories from other comics that have a romantic bent. Besides the aforementioned kiss incident, this also includes issues where Batman and Catwoman get down, Aquaman treats his wife like a queen, and the Stormwatch issue where Apollo and Midnighter celebrate Valentine’s Day apart, but with each other in their thoughts. The issue will be $7.99.
