Or – “Why Wouldn’t Jor-El Make ONE Big Ship Instead Of Four Small Ones?”
If Jor-El of Krypton had been quicker in his experiments, or perhaps more assertive in his arguments, we might have an entire planet of Supermen running rampant across the universe. Had he built one big rocket instead of several small ones, though, he could have saved his own life and that of his wife as well as baby Kal’s. Of course, that course of action might also have a few consequences as well…
If you didn’t see her pictures scattered across the Intardwebz already this past week, here’s Major Spoilers’ Cosplay Girl Victoria’s gallery of images from the San Diego Comic Con.
With Lex Luthor fanning the flames of hate on another planet and keeping Batman occupied in Gotham, can Superman stop Lex from turning an entire planet against him?
There is a madman loose on the streets of Neo Gotham that’s killing people from Batman’s past using weapons of his old enemies. Speculation points to Hush but how could that be when Batman was there the day Hush died?
We just announced Rob Lowe will be making an appearance as Captain Marvel in the Young Justice series, now we get a look at the animation and characters.
Or – “All This Fuss Over Absorbency Boy???”
The resurgence of the Legion has it’s positives and it’s opportunities for me, not the least of which comes in the form of Earth-Man, the buzzcut neo-Nazi xenophobic schmuck who has dominated the first two issues of the series. His utilization in the Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes arc of Action Comics worked well, but out of that context, he’s just an annoyance, and provides a twenty-somethingth or other member of a team that’s already full to bursting with people I might care about. Will this issue continue the trend, or can we get some Legion in our Legion?
With Luthor’s assassin revealed, it’s up to Slade to deal with her. Can Deathstroke keep his client alive, take care of this seemingly immortal assassin and keep his team from falling apart?
We posted the Ivan Reis black and white version of this image yesterday, and today The Source releases the image color. Now is the time to really see what is going to happen over the next year, and as I mentioned yesterday, it looks like many of the things undone, retconned, and redone in Blackest Night/Brightest Day may be going through a major change.
DC made a big splash with their mega-sized teaser images that hint at story lines to come. Ivan Reis provides the pencils, it’s up to you to provide the speculation.
I see a dead Aquaman, so that must mean Mera did something right…Of course it is odd that everything that has been built up over the last year appears to be undone in the near future.
I understand the full color image will appear in this week’s DC titles.
In this issue: Rodrigo returns, Avatar gets bent, and the X-Men meet their match?
Show Notes after the Jump!
If there is one action figure package I want from SDCC’10, it has got to be the Starro mega-pack that features a bendable Starro (that I hear can fit over your own face for crazy hijinks) and five action figures that pay homage to The Brave and the Bold #28.
While this figures themselves are going to rock in only the way that Mattel can serve up, it’s the packaging itself that might have many needing to buy two – one for the figures, the other for the awesome Kevin Conroy recording that is just a button push away.
Now that Jason Todd is both among the living and back behind the wheel in his head, it’s time for Batman to pay for not avenging his death. But can this former sidekick kill his idol?
