Kang Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 The Jon Superman is gonna go to the Injustice comic universe, which is Earth 49 in the sole infinite multiverse. The Ultraman of Nu52 (maybe) and the black Superman of Nu52 Earth 2 will both appear in Jon's miniseries. Have to find out if it's the rebooted Nu 52 Earth 2 from the end and not the early one. Clark is extra powered up again and will own Lex Corp. Luthor is the reason most people on Earth 0 don't remember that Clark and Jon are Supermen.

Kang Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Under Waid, Shazam will be going back to something very similar to his old costume and he will be known as "The Captain" instead of the Shazam codename. Mary is Mary Marvel. The rest of the Johns stuff is sticking. I'm reminded of a another forgotten UK version of Captain Marvel just called the Captain too. Used to be profiled on some fansite.

Kang Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 So eventually thanks to the Metaverse and in our possible future, Superman is gonna be very young again with no wife and kids again, and lose his JL founder status but Bruce and Diana will be old and moved on from. The name or number for whatever this new Earth is unknown for now. They already took away Earth 0's main Earth status. Metaverse Earth hasn't always been Earth 0 either.

Mario Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) Just when I think I’m getting a handle on my comics spending, I realize I’ve overlooked a bunch of runs I really want to read. So far this week, I have bought the Peyer/Rags Morales Hourman run, Rucka’s run on Checkmate, Andreyko’s Manhunter run, Simonson’s Orion run, the Arcudi/Mahnke Major Bummer series, Peter David’s Fallen Angel book (DC run only), Kyle Baker’s short run on Plastic Man, Giffen’s Five Years Later LSH book (vol 4, 1-38) and the Ostrander/Mandrake Spectre run. This may or may not be the month I finally pick up Morrison’s Doom Patrol and Geoff Johns’ Hawkman series. Yeah…. That’s a lot. I mostly did not read comics between 1995 and 2018, so there’s a lot of great stuff out there to cherry-pick. I also bought a few things last week from Barnes and Noble’s Image sale. Some of the above really needs collected. Or collected again, Not too interested in the gigantic 5YL hardcover. Would much prefer a couple trades collecting about 12 issues each. I’m really surprised issues 23-62 of the Spectre run have never gotten collected. I don’t like IDW’s trade so I wish DC had collected the last eight issues of DC Fallen Angel. And someone should reprint Major Bummer. It was DC book but never got collected by them. Dark Horse put out a tpb in 2011, but it’s out of print and goes for absurd money on eBay. It gets the coveted title of most money I’ve ever spent on one trade paperback. Exit: and the lcs just texted to ask if I still want the Denny O’Neill Question tpbs. Someone traded in nice copes of the full run last night. I haven’t read it in 30 years but I really dug that book at the time.

blitzkrieg Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Have to say that I'm pretty bummed that Jeremy Adams's Flash run is ending with #800. I feel like he really got Wally and his world and would loved him to have a really long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kang Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 So that leaves only Action and Detective with very long running numbers https://www.gamesradar.com/flash-800-brings-the-series-to-a-close-before-relaunching-in-september/ Tom King is taking over Wonder Woman with Daniel Sampere on art.

Kang Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Justice Society of America issue 3 Yolanda and Chapel were just resurrected recently by Lazarus Eruptions. That ignores the parts and panels of Doomsday Clock where both were shown alive eariler. Per Degaton uses occult magic with the time machine to time travel. Anyway the current present day JSA are finally shown on pages working together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kang Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Batgirls and Tim Drake: Robin are cancelled. Black Adam limited series ends at 12. Seems the new JL series either got axed before it started or moved ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 RIP Steve Skeates age 80, maybe best known as co creator of Hawk and Dove and writing the Silver Age Aquaman, along with a ton of horror comics at DC, Charlton, Warren and other places.

Matt D Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 I started on Taylor's Nightwing this morning and made it through the first arc. It's as good as people say so far. There's no reason why 80% of the DC line isn't like this. What a waste of 10+ years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 I’m intrigued by Waid doing more stuff. Apparently this new Black Label book about Luthor is a kind of sequel to Birthright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you read Tom Taylor Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man (2019-2020)? It's only 14 issues but I recommend it particularly #6 and #14. I added #14 to my best Spider-Man stories ever list here: Edited April 25, 2023 by The Natural Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kang Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Shazam stuff Spoiler Freddy isn't blonde anymore but brunette hair, Shazam is Captain now. Only Billy has the Shazam powers, the rest of the family have been stripped of their powers. I was right that Waid will try to undo Nu52 Shazam but he did in a way that doesn't throw everything out.

Kang Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) Some Batman stuff Spoiler Red Mask creates Jokers in the multiverse. Lot of different multiversal Batmen show up, the Keaton Batman and the DCAU Batman and more. The Adam West Batman gives Earth 0 Batman his utility belt. Bruce of Earth 0s gets his missing hand replaced with robot hand thanks to the TDKR Batman. And he starts wearing the TDKR suit. Bruce created lot of Zur-En-Arrh copies.
