Brian Fowler Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Also of note: Detective Comics Before Batman vols 1 and 2. I think the first time all 26 pre-Batman issues have ever been collected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unholy Dragon Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Guys. Read The Unexpected before it gets cancelled. It's Steve Orlando doing a bonkers love letter to Grant Morrison's stuff. The team is still settling but it looks to include a Challenger of the Unknown and the DC One Million Robin with enemies including Onimar Synn and freaking Mandrakk. And all of it with a quasi Seven Soldiers meets JLA feel. It's totally bonkers and I'd really love if it didn't die in like six issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Didio is teasing just like he did with Dick Grayson a decade ago. Â 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't think there's much chance they'll kill Wally off this soon after bringing him back, and I think there's only a slight chance he'll actually be the killer in Heroes in CRISIS. If the one rumour is true though  Wally in Azzarello's Suicide Squad That would still be really fucking stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Re: Wally I think the rumor is that Zoom takes his face and frames him. Frankly, it's all a massive disappointment based on what King was initially saying. I know you need drama and conflict but it sounded like Sanctuary was going to be something much more character driven instead of Identity Crisis II. At the least they could have built it up for a year and used it for a set piece for a while before leaning this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 If true that sounds pretty similar to Spoiler The return of Barry Allen that Waid wrote Admittedly, hard to do completely original ideas, but given the characters involved, too close to a retread. UNLESS, this story references that one, but I doubt that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 There's nothing more groanworthy than Batman saying "Justice League Dark" on panel. Next he's going to talk about the WWE Universe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Shadowpact was a much better name in universe for the resident magic team, even if JLD is probably better for selling books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Spoiler Kyle and Booster Gold seem a lot more expendable than the others, as IP's go. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Dragon Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Booster is a Johns favourite and seems to be a protagonist. Red Robin just died and came back so he seems unlikely. I'd wager Roy goes and maybe Kyle as much as the idea frustrates me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 They aren't really doing much with Kyle, just a supporting player, so, honestly, killing him might eventually lead to him getting a bigger push when he is inevitably revived. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Yeah, like they'd kill another Robin again, Harley, or Cyborg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Dragon Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 DC cancelled the Shazam! Monster Society of Evil hardcover for the same vintage racism concerns as 7 or 8 years ago when they cancelled it last time.  Gotta be a movie thing because we have two hardcovers of pre-Batman Detective Comics coming. Still disappointing given how important the story is to the history of longer form serialization in comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 It's really weird given that they literally already did this, and obviously had to know the issues before they announced it this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Dragon Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Bleeding Cool suggested it was a case of WB Corporate catching wind and being concerned of blowback toward the film and thus sending word down to scuttle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
