DC Comics will no longer use Diamond as their distribution medium.

DC Cuts Ties With Diamond Comic DistributorsThe Hollywood Reporter

"...Diamond will only be fulfilling orders placed through June 1 Final Order Cut-Off and will not solicit the sale of new DC titles further."

25 years of active cooperation is now over. According to the article, Diamond stated near the start of the pandemic that it would withhold the payments to its publishers after DC decided to pause the production of comics.

DC had to go find alternatives during the time and I can only assume the alternatives provide them with a better return on comics production costs.

My Killing Joke book for $23. Really wanted to get a statue, but their $500 and I don't have that kinda money.

For younger audiences, yeah, it's a great way to get into the comics. For adult audiences, it can be seen as corny at times, but it's not a bad universe. I'd give it a shot

Now hold on, I thought this was just another CW show. Is Stargirl actually good?

Gonna be honest, it's a hard tossup between Darkseid and Kite-man. They're both really strong.

EDIT: I really wish there was a delete option

Thanks folks. I appreciate it. I'll just get Morrison's run and leave it at that.

Do you know if the story matters up until Rebirth? Like, does it get retconned or similar?

Is the New 52 Action Comics a good read?

Action Comics Vol 2DC Database

I kind of wanna buy the collected books for it, but I want to know any opinions of whether it's a good story or if it's even worth it. Anyone like/dislike it?

I think it's just a title for him. The encyclopedia lists him as Joseph Blackfire, introduces him as Deacon Joseph Blackfire, but later refers to him as the deacon and simply "Joseph Blackfire. As far as why the ring used it, I can't tell you why. Maybe writer discrepancy or similar, but I think it's just a title they use for him. The encyclopedia is older so they might've referenced that.

Ah okay, I see the Silver Age issue they're based on. Thank you.

Bruce Wayne's of New 52 worlds

Does anyone know why in most of the alternate New 52 worlds, anyone that resembles Bruce Wayne gets Bruce Wayne as their name? Is it in the multiversity issue? I tried looking but couldn't find it.

There is {{Illusion}} you can use. Or, if that doesn't apply, {{green|Whatever text here}} for anything that needs more specification. I try to stick to whatever is made but sometimes green text is needed. Appearances Categories

Someone made a post to Kyle about making the page and he said if they could make it, they can. Many prime earth pages just redirect to new earth when they should probably have a page. Mister Mxyzptlk (Prime Earth) is one of them.

Completely forgot about that. Thanks. Looking it up, they say it'll be released on FCBD and May 27th. Not sure which is which, but May regardless.

Anyone know the next time we'll see Wally West?

Just curious when his next appearance will be after #750. I feel like it would've been announced to be in a major book, but I don't know.

Given the treatment we give Bart, I think they should have Prime Earth delegation with history stating they were created, and previously resided, in the Dark Multiverse. Also the retention of New Earth history. They're new residence is now Prime Earth so it seems better.
