- SUPERMAN 100 PAGE SPECTACULAR #1 do you remember the Superman Confidential series? These are the Claudio Castellini (Silver Surfer, Nathan Never) drawn issues, unpublished at time due to series being axed!

- Detective Comics # 997: as we are approaching Dc # 1000 I wanted read the forthcoming issues of this title;

- GREEN LANTERN #3 with Grant Morrison and Liam Sharp you can't be wrong, can't you?

- HAWKMAN #8 I will supposedly like these space opera issues;

- HEROES IN CRISIS #4 (OF 9) VAR ED
- HEROES IN CRISIS #5 (OF 9) VAR ED Yes, I have been ordering/following these crossover, but do they really plan to kill the character of the similar (to mine) name here?

- JUSTICE LEAGUE ODYSSEY #5 drawn by Italian great artist Carmine di Giandomenico, formerly on Flash;

- PEARL #6 (MR) first regular issue of this formerly mini-series of the "Bendis Universe", let's see how it works..

cheers!

I doubt they'll kill Barry. And the more major characters they kill off, the more convinced I am that many of them will turn out not to be dead. Arsenal I could believe, but Wally? After the last two years? No. And Poison Ivy? Seriously?

Completely different tone, but I love both. B&B had a ton of characters I would never have thought I'd see on tv.

Do you remember the ones with the JSA? They were great! And Aquaman and his family on a road trip!!!

I've posted elsewhere about the new Question series, but I'm also really enjoying the new Metal Men limited series, the utterly bizxarre Inferior Five, and (based on the first issue), the relaunched Hellblazer (John Constantine seems to be showing up everywhere at the moment).

These characters and storyline all appeared on The Brave and the Bold? Rolling Eyes

Do you know if a chronology of this series exists online? Question

I've never seen one, but then, I've never looked! Those two B&B episodes with the JSA were great, I have the first one on DVD and watch it quite regularly.

When I was at a comic book shop two weekends ago I got:
* DC's Terrors Through Time #1 (one-shot) includes the Justice Society of America story
* Flashpoint Beyond #6 (of 6) only bought issue #6 because it leads into the upcoming The New Golden Age one-shot
* GCPD: The Blue Wall #1 will give it a try . . .

Terrors Through Time had one fun story (the Super Sons by Sholly Fisch) and one not-bad story (the Justice Society), but the rest of the issue wasn't worth the bother for me. GCPD: The Blue Wall #1 was okay, but nothing that really makes me want to buy any future issues. And Flashpoint Beyond #6 offered nothing to make me want to buy the previous issues in the series.

I'm planning to try the Johns' JSA and Stargirl stuff coming out this month, but there's really not anything else from DC that makes me want to spend money on their books. The few things I might have wanted have writers I don't like or don't care about / don't know anything about.

My most recent DC picks are the latest issues of Sword of Azrael, Batman, Batman: Knightwatch, Batman/Joker: Deadly Duo, Dark Knights of Steel, Gotham City Year One, Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing, Poison Ivy, and New Champion of Shazam. All but one of them Batman related. The only new DC title released this week that wasn't is New Champion of Shazam.

I've been buying the Dark Crisis books, when I can find them. I'm missing some and I'll wait until the end and read them all at once. We shall see what I like, I guess.

Dark Crisis has me both hopeful and apprehensive. At this point, I have no idea what the outcome will be.

by MajorHoy Fri Dec 09, 2022 9:57 pm

Went to the comic book shop today and the DC books I bought were:
* The New Golden Age #1 (one-shot)
* Stargirl: The Lost Children #1 (of 6)
* Justice Society of America #1 (of 12)
* Detective Comics #38 (facsimile edition; orig. 1940)

by **tony ingram** Fri Dec 09, 2022 11:56 pm

I'm really enjoying what's happening with the JSA and Stargirl. Clearly, our not so mysterious mystery villain (hello, Per) is messing with the JSA timeline, but it's interesting that they're tying it into some fairly obscure pre-Crisis continuity. Frederic Vaux!!!?
