The title is fairly self-explanatory. I've already read Superman: Brainiac. I know John Byrne reinvented the character post-Crisis, but I don't know when he did so in his run. Can you give me those issue numbers and recommend other Brainiac stories?

Spoilers!!! If you haven't read Justice League #22...

Finally, the full story of creation in the Prime Earth Universe by James Tynion IV; based on the cosmology of Scott Snyder and Geoff Johns.

Finally, a cosmology that wraps back around to COIE; or whatever form COIE took in PE. This gets complicated.

In a nutshell: Perpetua comes from the Omniverse, in the service of The Source. 20 BYA, she creates the PE Multiverse in the palm of her hand; in the classic meme of DC. To service the three Multiversal domains, she creates her children:

Alpheus - The World Forger - Birth - Dark Matter Universe

Mar Novu - The Monitor - Life - The Matter Universe

Mobius - The Anti-Monitor - Death - The Anti-Matter Universe

The original buffer between the Multiverse and the Omniverse was the Anti-Matter Universe; and Mobius was to keep this zone free of life. The Monitor was free to travel to other Multiverses. When Perpetua built an army, the Monitor used the Cosmic Tuning Fork to signal the Source from the Promethean Galaxy, and this is where the Source Wall was created, said to be "in every direction from every universe within". The Source Wall captured Perpetua, her Army, and the "Totality of her power"; and kept the Multiverse safe from the Judgement of the Source. The Totality of her powers are what we now call the seven fundamental counter-forces.

With the rise of the SW and the reset of the Multiverse, the Monitor and the Anti-Monitor would be reformed and born again on Oa and Qward, respectively. And for me this is the most important part. There have been as many different Monitors and Anti-Monitors as there have been different Multiverses.

So the different Anti-Monitors (COIE and Mobius) are incarnations of the same being. It meant little that he's been drawn either way (DN:M #4 and JL #20) or that Geoff John's Anti-Monitor and Mobius were referred to as different beings' separated by the Anti-Life Equation. It's almost a cosmic Hawkman story.

Further, Justice League #22 establishes that Perpetua's "family" are true Cosmic beings, and aware of all versions of the Multiverse/ Universe. Earth-One, New Earth, Prime Earth; and the Crises in between.

********

The Monitor's tuning fork was last seen in Dark Nights:Metal; preceded by the Anti-Monitor's tower in New 52 Justice League Darkseid War.

The Promethean Galaxy was last seen in earlier Justice Leagues.

********

Now, where does this take us? With the Source Wall destroyed, and Perpetua and her children free, the clock has been turned back ten and a half billion years to Perpetua and the Multiverse facing the Judgement of the Source. The Multiverse lacks balance. Perpetua's Multiverse of Doom (as opposed to Justice) was going to be wiped from the map.

This is not as radical a change as it seems. There has always been a hand unfurling the Multiverse - usually as Krona looked on. The hand has belonged to the Anti-Monitor, the Spectre, Mxyzptlk and Volthoom, among other unnamed Cosmic beings. Krona will come into this at some point, as he is said to have collected all the evidence on Perpetua from across the universe.

What's your opinion on the new cosmology? Does it still fit with Morrison's from "The Multiversity Guidebook", and Metron's revelations in JL: The Darkseid War? Who is the Raptor that comes for Perpetua?

when is the flash coming out?!

I'm two volumes from catching up to the modern Hellblazer reprint series. After that I guess I'll read N52 Constantine and JLD. But at some point I'm going to run out of reading material.

But wait! there are guest appearances!

Like in Injustice: Year Three where we got that great dynamic between John and Batman.

Or in Brian K. Vaughan's Swamp Thing: I wasn't a huge fan of it, but the Constantine issue was amazing, it was really interesting seeing him interact with Tefe.

Or in that Zatanna one-shot where he was too drunk to help her clean up his mess.

Or in Grell's Green Arrow where he appeared for a single page, but it was still cool seeing a familiar face in a comic I was already enjoying a great deal.

Hell, even his FIRST appearance was a guest appearance.

But I'm sure there are others, would you recommend any?

Something crossed my mind u know how Marvel has Cosmic entity's does DC have any?, I know we have The Presence but any others?

Might be a mistake

Is it’s possible that Slade Wilson is Damian Wayne real father

A few web pages say she potentially has the power to destroy universes but I dunno what do ya guys think in my opinion I love raven I love her dark and mysterious personality but I do feel bad because its due to emotional distress

The rules are diabolically simple. Roscoe’s chosen a character from the DCU, and through repeated questioning, you’ll deduce who it is. Easy. It’s not like I chose “Atropos of the Earth-1 Furies” or anything!😉

The questions must be in a format that can only be answered as yes, no or maybe.

As always with Roscoe Quizmastering; there will be a few ‘Maybe’s - which means sometimes Yes and sometimes No; whether across universes or through time.

Play the game like you’re Mr Terrific, and we’ll all get along fine. Wait two turns before asking another question, unless...🕜🕝🕞

All according to the N8 Protocol, of course.

I watched Justice League vs Fatal Five and thought it was okay. All the returning characters are alright. Only difference is Wonder Woman always has a sword and I don't believe sge ever used her lasso. Miss Martian takes a bit but she grew on me. She and Supergurl would have been best friends. Jessica and Starman I really did not like. Jessica is proped up to be really big but I think it mostly fell flat. Starman was only there to explain and say, "I'm a superhero." He does play a big part in the end but it was really dumb. Does have a offhand reason for John being gone. A mediocre JLU episode.

Yahahahahha

Brightest Day. Blackest Night. No evil shall Escape my sight. Let those who worship evils might beware my power Green Lantern's light. I really as a lifelong DC fan would love to see another Green Lantern movie. Considering the fact when I was six I picked up my first DC Comic that happened to be the Green Lantern so the character is the reason that I'm strictly DC and then we buy DC brand

What is you guys's opinion about shazam, i personally dont like and its kinda like stealing the idea of superman but ig its not horrible ,i haven't seen it yet.

If anybody has watch the show or read the comics or both can you tell me what characters are like which characters in the DC awsomeness because that would be great. I am only thirteen.

Right. This has been bothering me ever since I left the film theatre and it is something I would like to discuss.

In the Third act, the Shazam family comes which is definitely a surprise. However, for me, it was an unnecessary surprise. We have just been introduced to Billy Batson/Shazam and we have seen the majority of his powers as the film progresses. Now many people accuse superhero movies of going to the same formula- the hero overcomes a personal problem and engages the villain in a final battle. We don’t really have that in Shazam, instead, the final battle is basically the Shazam Family vs the Seven Deadly sins (which can I say are beaten so easily- how are we supposed to take them seriously?). Shazam wins by tricking the last sin to come out. But Shazam does not get the whole spotlight In the end. And it’s because the rest of the family soak the rest of it up. I’m not saying the Shazam family should never come in- I’m saying it’s unnecessary in the first movie and takes the light away from Billy who is meant to be the main character. A better time would be perhaps have two of them come in a Shazam sequel. And the rest come in another sequel.

If you disagree with me, then feel free to comment in the comment section.

Where’s my post? About top ten batgirl villains?

Guys who are your favorite writers, who are currently still writing for DC? (rebirth era onwards). Personally I really enjoyed Dan Abnett's and Benjamin Percys work. Can someone please explain why the hell they're canceling Titans? I Geoff Johns, but haven't read any of his rebirth work since, well, the rebirth event. Also Scott Snyder for writing Metal and JL, and Peter J Tomasi did awesome work on super sons!!!

1. WTF? Since when does Damian have a big sister? And why is she Nobody? Wtf is Goliath? Why are none of these things mentioned in the current Batman series?

2. What Earth does this new Superman come from?

3. Why isn't Krypto in there more often? He rocks!

4. How come Jon has all of Clark's powers BUT flight?

5. Why did they need to find the transporter to escape the weird dinosaur island? Why not just fly at super-speed until they could see land? And shouldn't they tell everyone that dinosaurs aren't actually extinct?!

6. Why don't they use more stories like the one about the fair?

7. Why does Superman get a Bibbo and Batman doesn't?

I think I would pick Mongul

Bendis has announced that Tim Drake will be getting a new alias and costume in issue 7 of Young Justice. Let’s talk theories and thoughts on this.

I’m going to laugh if it ends up taking place in the past and this is just him becoming Red Robin. What’re your thoughts?

Location:Metropolis

All powers allowed

READY?

FIGHT!

Plot

Brianiac's invsion of Earth has caused much death and destruction, and despite the surviving heroes taking part in relief efforts, problems closer to home continue in the form of crime and smaller scale supervillains. Supergirl has taken Superman's place in the Justice League and is attempting to make the symbol of the House of El a symbol of goodness again. But she faces problems as well.

With Metropolis and Coast City gone forever, the country is in a state of economic decline. Kara has suggested that Kandor and Argo City replace Metropolis and Coast City, which could restore the economy and save what's left of her people in a single move. Needless to say this is not without controversy. Many fear that if the Kryptonians of those cities were allowed into Earth, there would be whole armies of supermen and women, and not everyone is comfortable with Kryptonians.

But the worst is yet to come, for a great darkness is being cast on Earth once again. His name is Nekron, and Earth is ripe for harvest, not for knowledge, but for the dead. Nekron is the leader of the Black Lanterns, who believe that since the universe was originally a place of darkness and death, light and life are perversions. He has sent Black Power Rings to ressurect many fallen heroes and villains.

Returning characters

Any character from past games has the potential to return

New character ideas

Saint Walker: He's sent to Earth to help with the relief effort after Brainiac's invasion, but later is forced to fight when Nekron arrives.

Larfleeze: Comes to Earth because he sees the aftermath of Brainiac's invasion as an easy chance to steal things.

Princess Amethyst: Defects from the other Lords of Order to fight Nekron and defend her adopted homeworld.

Static Shock: In the aftermath of Brainiac's invasion, Alva Industries, the chief rival of Wayne Luthor Enterprises began merging the superpills with various alien technology and magic left behind in previous crisis, creating a new, but unpredictable gas called "Quantum Vapor". And through a series of events, a large cannister of quantum vapor is released into Dakota City. Nicknamed "The Big Bang" by Dakota City inhabitants, tons of people start finding themselves with Superpowers. Nicknamed "Bang Babies", many of these individuals take on the roles of hero or villain. Among them is Virgil Hawkins, who becomes Static Shock, and finds himself caught up in the Blackest Night.

Beast Boy: Resurrected as a Black Lantern, he seeks to poison the Red for Nekron

Jonah Hex: Resurrected as a Black Lantern, he has been brainwashed into thinking life is an injustice

Man-Bat: Resurrected as a Black Lantern, he seeks to bring the Suicide Squad into the corps.

Charaxes: Before Killer Moth could be Resurrected as a Black Lantern, his damned soul made a deal with the demon Neron. In exchange for being resurrected as something to be feared, he would turn all Black Lanterns into Neron's personal undead army. Thus he is resurrected as the moth monster, Charaxes.

John Constantine: Constantine wanted nothing more to do with heroes and villains, all that mattered to him was raising his daughter, Rose in a magic haven where nothing and no one could get to them. But Rose's power has grown powerful, but in her young age, she is clumsy in it's use, and has accidentally sent her father back to Earth. Constantine now must fight the Black Night, while finding a way back to his daughter.

Etrigan: Jason Blood was one of the casualties in the war against Superman. And without him, Etrigan could not manifest. However, in a desperate attempt to use magic against Superman, Batman made a pact with Hell and became Etrigan's new host. Batman has only brought out Etrigan once, but with Nekron out and about, he fears he may have to bring Etrigan back into the frey.

Killer Croc: With Croc and Orca now married, and with a newborn child, Croc and Orca have considered retiring from villain activities. But though Waller is dead, Project Cadmus is still active along with the Suicide Squad. And the Squad has been re-assembled to fight Nekron. And in order to get Croc to cooperate, Orca's chip has been reactivated, and her and Croc's child has been given a nanochip as well. If Croc does not cooperate, his head won't blow, his wife and child's heads will.

In batman 51 we get a narration from this guy who's writing an article for the gotham gazette while we never get this article we do get what would have been in the article we can assume that his narration was the finished product, but since we never see it does it not count? And if it does count where should it go?

This could be a elseworld movie too. Like if they did an Red Son movie.

Why did shazams team consist of only 6 people while the wizard made billy see 7 seats which were the wizards brothers and sisters?

There’s more information from DC today on The Year of the Villain. It’s the next big event; including Event Leviathan (Action Comics) and City of Bane (Batman) so time to update the pulls, if events are your thing.

It’s already started with “Leviathan Rises” in Action and the return of The Question; who co-Stars in a six-part Leviathan mini beginning June 12.

That’s right. The Question is back in a mini with Plastic Man, Manhunter, Batman, Green Arrow, Batgirl and possibly Lois Lane.

There’s also a number of one-shots beginning May 29 with Superman: Leviathan Rising Special #1

The larger event officially begins May 1 for FCBD with a 25 cent release called “Year of the Villain” by Snyder, Tynion and art by Jim Cheung. “Apex Lex” Luthor gets powered up by Perpetua and offers that power around. For a price. July is the Villains month with special portrait covers for an extra buck each. A number of covers have been released. Check them out.

Has this ever been discussed? It would mean that most articles have some form of description, and then a full synopsis could be added in a lower segment.

hey guys im melania or mel im currently from the maze runner wiki and well i love dc superheroes a lot,ive only watched a few movies from every super hero well only a few movies from superman ive watched about everyone else i think and im interested in joining on here as well so hey guys i hope i can become a friend of all of yours :)

Hi

Is DC's Scarlet at all related to the Bendis/Maleev Scarlet?

How would the 7 deadly sins look like and what incredible powers would they have if they had taken shazams powers

Who else is is excited for the new joker movie!!!!!

As most of you may know, Dc seems to be cancelling some of their books, including top tier stuff like Titans and Green Arrow(cancelled on #50 IIRC). And, as I recall, they are also rumored to be downsizing which means there will be future cancellations.

But I'm not here to talk about the stuff that will be cancelled, just the stuff that has already ended. With what appears to be a smaller pull list of mine, that means I can either add new series' or just go to back issues.

So, I thought I'd start doing single issue back issues, and I wanted to ask what I should read? Keep in mind that I'm currently reading everything Supergirl by trade form so no Supergirl recommendations needed. Nor Flash.

I'm not to big on team books, but I occasionally read Teen Titans and am currently reading Young Justice(Peter David).

Thank you in advance.

Spoilers (Probably...idk)

I recently read Gates Of Gotham and had mixed thoughts about it. On the one hand, it was a good mix of historic and modern Gotham showing the three founding fathers. But I also found it lacklustre and disappointing compared to Scott’s other work. If you have read it, what did you think?

Series set in the future like Batman Beyond and Legion of Superheroes were written at a time when futures like the ones imagined were... well imaginations. But time does not stand still. And one wonders, will Batman Beyond become the new mainstream series once we reach a future with similar tech, or at least the years in the comics in universe dates?

What will happen to the current heroes? Will the books keep rebooting to keep up with the date, or will one day, heroes of the future, become the heroes of the present?

Spoilers ahead.

Long after finishing this I realized, it's kinda like Batman year one, but with Dick Grayson.

Whenever I go and see a DCEU movie, Arrowverse TV episode, or just any movie and/or TV show in general, I always wonder, "Who else is in this shared media universe?" Whenever I have went and watched Arrowverse episodes, I am always wondering what else is going on right off the screen. So, then I wonder, "Are all of DC's characters in these shared media universes?"

A comic you haven't read, but always wanted to.

This is hard I am the judge and the two incarnations of the villain which I am thinking of are very similar so no excuse goof luck work as a team this should be fun

A couple weeks back, I posted about several updates coming to DC Universe. The highlight (for us, at least) being the addition of over 20,000 single issue comics.

Already, several thousand comics from the Golden and Silver Age have been added with more coming in the next few weeks.

When the news broke, DC Universe also announced a masterpost on the Community discussions that would answer the majority of the questions about the comics that are coming. Below is a link to the post.

dcuniverse.com/community/boards/watchtower/the-ultimate-dc-digital-com

Several highlights include:

* No graphic novels (think the Earth-One series) or collected editions for now (possibly in the future?)

* Issues will be added every week that are 12 months old or, for older comics, as they are digitized.

* No Vertigo, Wildstorm, Milestone, etc. for now.

* No "kids" comics (DC Superhero Girls, Tiny Titans, etc.)

* The vast majority of the soon-coming comics will be available by the end of April.

But still, even with the majority of imprints missing and a 12 month waiting period, this is still a huge upgrade. And again, if you're in the US and are still unsure about whether the service is worth it, this might just settle it for you.

Also, I recommend just looking through the website/app to see different changes that were made in over to accommodate the new stuff and read official posts to see what's coming soon.

I've been out of the loop for WHILE! I noticed they dont use Rebirth anymore. So that leaves me wondering what to call the new comics. I guess just DC huh? Maybe its just that and ive been trained to have a gimmicky name follow it

Earlier we heard that DC Universe was going to be expanding it's library. It did today (or maybe yesterday).

I haven't been able to document everything new, but there is a bunch of old Superman comics being added (@Mektonz)

I'm putting together a list of all comics on the site and will release it as soon as it is finished.

What is the most epic comic book binge read you have ever done?

In the comics, if I am not mistaken, Freddy, Mary, Pedro, Darla, and Eugene are all depicted as having the same, if not slightly weaker, powers as Billy when in their hero forms.

However, in the film (Shazam!, 2019), is the implication that all of the kids get one of the six attributes? We see Freddy with the Stamina of Atlas, Darla with the Speed of Mercury, Eugene with the Power of Zeus, Pedro with the Strength of Hercules, and Mary with... the Wisdom of Solomon? During that entire final battle, we see Mary struggle when fighting the sins, meanwhile Darla, Freddy, Eugene, and Pedro are all making good uses of their abilities and holding off the sins with competence. This confuses me, as Mary Marvel has always been one of the most powerful heroes in the Shazam family, so to see her struggling so hard was a bit... offputting?

Anyone have any insight?

So I had done some "research" on CGI/animated movies, and apparently they can take many years to be completed...

This is somewhat a commentary on the "DCEU" state... (Can be ignored though)

What do you guys think of a CGI/animated cinematic universe for DC?

Is it in anyway conducive?

I mean, things like character/costume design, will be less restricted, I feel, instead of having to rely so much on big stars, and big sets, aging crew members (actors), they could just animate many if not all things...

What do you guys and girls have to say? Opinions and facts are all welcome...

I searched the wiki but couldn't find any timeline pages for live-action media. Can anybody help?

I've been looking over the new Nuclear Man of Prime Earth page and I know there is nothing really on him but from what I gathered he was made by a Kryptonian, and given that it appears his been in the Phantom Zone before the destruction of Krypton he couldn't be a clone of Superman. But given that Nuclear Man was wearing a El cape he might have been made by Jor-El or a number of scientists like Jax-Ur (given his entrust in nuclear weapons) with Jor-El being the lead.

Just my thought so he could be a clone of either Jor or Jax, many both or a soldier but whatever the case its unlikely his a clone of Superman nor would he be an enemy of Superman's but give that Superman is Kryptonian he most likely would hate him along with any other Kryptonian but mainly those of the House of El.

Hope as time goes on his origin is revealed cause I'm a fan and would like to see more of him.

Guys, you must've played the game and liked it. But what about the comics, though?

How are there more than 52 earths in any of the multiverses in the dc comics awesomeness?

When I say "new" I'm on the Batman fandom so. Hi.

Anything!

But no batman/superman stuff or prime earth or any of those. Just batman on this earth

Besides the dumbassses who know nothing about DC and just went for fun.

Since we have so many question posts being made, I'd thought I'd drop one.

Is Vertigo Comics named after Alfred Hitchcock's movie Vertigo (also my fifth favorite movie of all time)?

I think I read somewhere that it was, but my memory is an unreliable source, even if the source I remember getting it from is reliable.

Did Bob Kane have a ghost artist?

I don't mean a dead guy.

Y'all know the rules. I'll post a link to my protocols.

But is there an Oa for each earth?

What is the difference between the antimatter universe and the Dark Multiverse. 😂

With every other issue in Prime Earth continuity that has Alanna Strange, she has dark skin and short black hair, and that's been the usual appearance. With issue 6 of The Green Lantern, she's now white with long black hair like her New Earth version. Did they just change it, or is this series not in continuity?

Spoilers, probably.

I had my misgivings, and I groaned at some of the jokes, but overall I enjoyed it.

Oh, you saw Mister Mind? I saw the Punkusians. And no, I'm not counting that as an explicit confirmed Black Adam appearance.

Yes, beer is disgusting.

Thank you for making Mary smart enough to see through it all.

Hell yeah they did the Shazam Family. And they looked good. Their costumes looked better than Zachary Levi's.

Yes Billy, I too thought Lust would be hotter. I was actually thinking that the entire movie. Four-armed Greed makes sense. The Envy twist was good too, that pretty much salvaged it from being generic mooks.

I hate child actors, but these ones weren't so bad. Darla looked like she was getting on my nerves. Though Adult Darla's actress was better at being a kid than kid Darla

The Marilyn Batson twist is well, wow.

I was wondering if someone would be so kind as to clear up a couple questions I have about the New 52 Shazam Family.

1. Billy isn’t effected if any of them decide to hero up, right?

2. Billy could take away their abilities if he wanted?

3. They all have to be together to transform (except Billy can do it himself)?

The killer elite vs false face society with black mask vs deadshot who would win you decide

Who would win and why?

I had found a small rumor on Reddit yesterday about that captain atom is coming to the flash season 6.

Not much info was talked about all I just saw from this post was that he claims that the flash show runners are going to introduce captain atom in the flash season 6 its unknown what role he will have and its also unknown which actor will play as him.

If you don't know who captain atom is a guy named Nathaniel Adam who was coerced into an experiment which bonded alien metal to his skin and sent him 18 years into the future, giving birth to Captain Atom, a superhero fueled by the Quantum Field.

Sadly this post was deleted possibly by WB or DC.

So yeah The flash season 6 might have captain atom in this season but we just need to wait and see if this rumor or true or not.

We could also might see the return of general wade eiling and maybe we could see him hunting down captain atom because after all he is one of captain atom's enemies.

But anyway what do you think will captain atom show up in in season 6 let me know in the comments below.
