"Earth-Prime" CW TV show-related six-issue limited series
As was mentioned by Tony in a different thread,
So it seemed to make sense (to me, at least) to cover the whole series in a separate thread.
Here's the general post DC put up back in January:
What's been released so far,
EARTH-PRIME: BATWOMAN #1
EARTH-PRIME: SUPERMAN & LOIS #2
EARTH-PRIME: LEGENDS OF TOMORROW #3
EARTH-PRIME: STARGIRL #4
As for next month, EARTH-PRIME #5: The Flash is due out June 7th, and then . . .
tony ingram wrote:Earth Prime: Stargirl was a really nice little story. Out of the main continuity, of course, but the characters were spot on. And I was so glad to see Jerry Ordway drawing the Golden Age characters again!

Re: "Earth-Prime" CW TV show-related six-issue limited series
I don't watch any of the CW shows, but I did pick up the Stargirl issue because of Jerry Ordway doing the art. And while Robinson can be a good writer, there have been times where I have not liked his writing.
Thankfully, I found the issue to be enjoyable.
Here's some art from the issue I found elsewhere that really pushed me to get this issue:

About the CW shows I tried to watch some episodes of Legends of tomorrow when they run for free on Pop channel Rai 4 but they appeared really stupid and unwatchable, IMHO..
I'll try to get Earth Prime # 4: Stargirl due to Jerry Ordway great art, too rare these days!
