If Flashpoint kept in its own corner like Blackest Night it would not be the most divisive event in DC history.

Is Magog the villain in World's Finest? A lot of love has been shared for the issue around the internet,but I have not read anything on this particular speculation.

No, it's a new villain called Nezha

This is Nezha

Spoiler:



He's a new character and nothing is really known about him yet. I doubt he's connected to Kingdom Come. Just because it's the same writer doesn't mean everything he does with Superman is tied to that story.

Waid says Nezha is tied to Batman mythology and will return in the present day towards the end of the year

I researched Nezha. He is a figure in Taoism, reads like the Chinese version of Loki. Also, it seems that the character is involved in this Monkey Prince title. I hope that it will not force a crossover with it. However, it does clarify why Dick Grayson and Linda Danvers are transported to the time that the Shang dynasty began.

Hal Jordan guest stars in #4, but in opposition to the World's Finest team.

Since when did Black Manta and Joker return to The sextet in The Legion of Doom? Black Manta was removed early on and Joker quit because Luthor was messing with The Batman Who Laughs. Braniac later joined in Joker's place. After Death Metal it seemed it was done. I guess nothing matters and writers do what they want? Not complaining just looking for an answer.

Nightwing vs Deathstroke, in front of the latest Titans Tower to decide who fills the void after the Justice League 'dies'.


A few things about this- If it's in front of Titans Tower, why not the first generation of sidekicks to takeover the temporary void? Dick Grayson is going to get the nod for the diverse replacements? This doesn't make sense! Is Deathstroke running a dark mirror Titans group again?

I read the quote here and it is weird because it is like something that I would write as I agree with every word. These are the only runs worth looking at in the company and perhaps the industry right now.



"I Irarely do the preview pages posts, but I really feel strongly about this book from Waid, artist Dan Mora, colorist Tamra Bonvillain and letterer Aditya Bidika. It’s got the same heart as Tom Taylor, Bruno Redondo and Adriano Lucas’ Nightwing and the same sense of fun and adventure as Jeremy Adam’s The Flash."

Gotta say, I loathed the guy's attitude in person (I've seen him speak and take MANY Q&As at conventions over the years) and as a whole and would always wish for the day he would not be at DC... but I never dreamed 10-15 years ago that what -- and notice I don't say "who" -- would replace him could be so jarringly worse.

I know most of you don't care about DC's annual Pride book but I think this is kinda cool

@DiscussingFilm
Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy will be writing a segment for the 'DC PRIDE 2022' comic special with art by Aditya Bidikar and J. Bone.

The segment is called Finding Batman and is described as a personal story. Conroy was one of the first openly gay men to play a superhero.

I had no idea.... I thought he had a wife and children. I never would have thought he was of that preference.

One thing I was wondering was if Dan Didio's 5G initiative pushed through would it have been nothing but non-straight, non-Cacasian replacements running around and if this Pride crap would be all over the DC part of the industry or would it have been any different?

As for Ram V, could we expect something Iike Doug Moench's second run in the Batman title from #515- #552, Post-Prodigal to No Man's Land? Going by the two titles you list that is what it makes me think of.

It's come to light that all DC titles will have to deal with the fallout of Dark Crisis sooner rather than later
