It’s August 30, so here’s the CLZ Newsletter for August 2025.
We started the month with the promised update for the CLZ Comics mobile app, in which we take the most popular feature, Adding Comics by Scanning Covers, to the next level.
For the rest of the month, most of the dev team (Pim, Bernard, Michiel and AJ) have been working on the upcoming updates for CLZ Movies, both mobile and web.
It started out as a relatively small update in which we would add some new fields (just like we did for the books and music apps recently). However, the update has grown into a huge major upgrade, with several big new features that have been on our “to do” list for many years.
It will bring: editable episode lists, add your own youtube trailers, a full watch history with multiple watch dates, and more! Check out the Sneak Preview below (with screenshots!).
Finally, lead developer Sven is preparing for the biggest CLZ Web project in recent years. Something users have been requesting for ages. But also a project we have been procrastinating for ages too, if only for the size and complexity. But it is finally going to happen this year.
I can’t tell you what it is yet, but if you have been with us for a while, you can probably guess what it is :-).
The topics today:
- CLZ Comics 10.3 (mobile): Easier and faster Adding by Cover!
- Sneak Preview: CLZ Movies updates (web and mobile) with many new fields

It’s alive! It’s alive! NCBD is here once more
The legend begins! The Norse Myths tell of Gods who walked the Earth, doing great deeds for the mortals who believed in them. But Asgard isn’t real, and never was. The Gods never soared in our skies, never stood with our heroes, never fought for kindness or justice. It was all just a story. Nobody’s coming to help us. But somewhere in the city… a man is waking up. A man with a hammer. The Mortal Thor #1. Written by Al Ewing and art by Pasqual Ferry.
Universal Monsters: The Invisible Man #1 Jack Griffin has always been invisible to the people around him, at least in his own mind. But when an experimental breakthrough presents a path to make his dreams of invisibility a reality, no one, not even the woman he loves will stand in his way. Witness Griffin’s legendary descent into madness as his humanity fades away and the monster inside is revealed, leaving only… The Invisible Man! The horror dream team of James Tynion IV and DaNi reveal their vision for one of the most horrific monsters in cinematic history!
Humanity broke the barrier between our universe and our universe’s shadow. From the void came horrific apparitions that craved nothing but destruction. But from this terror… a legend was born. A warrior who found a way to access the energy that binds our universe and the shadow universe, transforming him into a cosmic dark knight. This immortal legend was named Batman. He fought to keep us safe but then one day abandoned the war. Though he didn’t disappear entirely. Now they say he hunts a rogues gallery of monsters… born from the shadows! Immortal Legend Batman #1

By the hoary hosts of Hoggoth! It’s NCBD once again.
Super-thief, super… Hero?! Felicia Hardy is the Black Cat, the world’s slyest and most skilled super-thief! She loves a good score. The longer the odds, the better! But her entire world turned upside down after the Amazing Spider-Man’s battle with Hellgate, so Felicia is turning over a new leaf as New York City’s newest… super hero?! The first super villain on her list: the Lizard! But will the Black Cat risk it all after her do-gooding moral high ground attracts dangerous attention from the lowest of the city’s underworld? Easy, Kingpin of Crime, she’s still skimming off the top! Black Cat #1
Escape #1 Milton Shaw is a battle-hardened bomber pilot, flying missions over a war-torn world ruled by a ruthless empire. But when his plane is shot out of the sky, Milton wakes up behind enemy lines — in the smoldering ruins of a city he helped burn. And in less than 24 hours, his own side is dropping the big one to finish the job.
Now, injured, unarmed, and being hunted through enemy streets, Milton’s only shot at escape comes from the unlikeliest place: a grieving father and his son — civilians shattered by the same fascist regime that rules this land with an iron claw. Enemies by blood. Allies by circumstance. Together, they’ll have to fight their way out before the bomb drops and erases everything… and everyone. Set in a brutal, fully painted world of anthropomorphic animals — think Inglourious Basterds meets Blacksad — ESCAPE is a gritty, bullet-riddled journey through war’s scorched aftermath. It’s about the violence we inflict, the souls we try to save, and the courage it takes to crawl out of fire.
An epic, star-studded, oversize 1.100 issues in the making! Detective Comics #1100 In March 1937, a comic book was published that changed the world as we know it. Now, 1,099 issues later, some of comics’ top talents have gathered to celebrate the comic that birthed a legend!
Tom Taylor and Mikel Janín join forces once again to tell a heartfelt and action-packed story of Batman rescuing a young boy’s best friend. Greg Rucka and Álvaro Martínez Bueno team up for a tale that asks the question: was Gotham better off before Batman? Mariko Tamaki reunites with Detective Comics collaborator Amancay Nahuelpan for a yarn that explores Bruce Wayne’s world outside of the cowl and how his double life as Batman intersects with his alter ego’s actions. Dan Watters and legendary artist Bill Sienkiewicz bring us a story that illustrates just how similar Batman’s motivations are to the criminals he has sworn to fight and how he fights against his own darkness.

One year ago, four friends barely escaped the unrelenting terror of the video game called Nightmare Cemetery. After spending endless hours locked into the innovative Dreamwave (the first gaming console played entirely while you sleep) in order to save one of their own from the game’s all-too-real consequences, they survived… barely. But after their harrowing rescue, they’ve decided they’ve had enough of Nightmare Cemetery and its enigmatic final boss, the King of Sleep.
That is, until the newest DLC, The Blighted Sprawl, suddenly appears online with a promise to reveal the truth of what actually lurks at the heart of Nightmare Cemetery’s digital darkness . . . and why its effects are now bleeding out into the real world in an array of bizarre and disturbing new ways. Cemetery Kids Run Rabid #1
