Hey there fellow DC fans. This thread is to discuss DC comic book news. Did a recent solicitation or article grab your attention? An artist or writer post something on their social media feed, or mention something in an interview that you thought was interesting? Let’s share and discuss here! Links if you can, please!
Also, if you avoid spoilers like the plague, this may not be the thread for you. Sometimes stuff about upcoming comics contains reveals, as you probably know .
Looks like there is a new superman event about superman family vs doomsdays. martian manhunter and bloodwynd are guest stars. Lots of dc titles are now using guest stars to promote characters with no titles. They can use Bloodwynd in a new justice league dark. Bloodwynd used to be part of the magic group called conclave. Pre flashpoint, there was a preview of Red Coven vs magic heroes, but the story was never continued.
Usually when I hear the word “Trinity” I think of the character from They Call Me Trinity (1970) and Trinity is Still My Name. Well, that’s if we’re not talking about DC (which we are). I will be interested to learn about the new character.
As I think more about it, I am glad they are expanding the “Wonder Family” with Trinity. Since it will be a glimpse in the future, there is no telling if this character will stick around or not.
Maybe they put the story in the future so that if she is popular she can travel time and come for a lengthy visit, but if not then they can safely ignore her.
King is saying they will be telling the story of how that future came to be. Which leads to more questions? Is it a story that spans 20+ years? Or will it end with Lizzie’s birth, thus implying the future events will actually take place? And of course the question you asked about how permanent of a change this will be. Only one way to find out.
So far, the assassins do not look that dangerous. Hopefully, bug eyed bandit will not succeed in killing Atom Ray Palmer. I started from the bronze age and I remember when Black Spider first fought Batman. I would not worry about Crazy Quilt being able to kill Batman. The assassin Jonathan Drew is currently in Danger Street and I seem to remember him fighting superman during pre flashpoint. During the bronze age, Jonathan Drew fought Snake. Lady Vic and Shrike are Nightwing villains. Trident is a rarely used Titans villain. Joshua Williamson used Trigger Twins when he was writing Barry Allen. Body Doubles first appeared in Resurrection Man 1 and I still miss Resurrection Man. Hellhound started in Catwoman. Constantine Drakon might go after Green Arrow.
Behind Peacemaker and Peacewrecker is the batman villain Gunsmith.
Dark Crisis 7 showed some pawns of Amanda Waller. Bloodsport and Bizarro superbat maybe will go after the superman family.
