This week, comic book retailers receive the first issue of a new quarterly magazine from DC Comics, Direct Currents. And we've had a sneak peek inside.

Including what Batgirl is up to with tech entrepreneur and son of The Penguin, Ethan Cobblepot in the monthly Batgirl series?

Direct Currents Magazine #1, available this Wednesday from all comic book shops. Find more of our advance coverage here.
