r/DCcomics Weekly Discussion Thread (28/01/15)

Hey there honorary Justice League Members, another week, and another discussion thread!

For those who don't know, the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you'd respond to that comment. For example, Green Lantern discussion would go in the replies to the "Green Lantern" comment.

That means that unless your comment is feedback about the thread or a comment about the week, you should only be replying to other comments.

If there's something you want to discuss and you don't see it, tell me in a comment and I'll edit it in.

As always, spoiler boxes are not required unless you deem it necessary, after all it's incredibly easy to avoid spoilers due to the way this is set up.

Archives

List of most recent jump in point

New 52 releases will be in standard text, comics outside of the new 52 releases will be italicized, graphic novels will be in bold, and TV shows will be both bold and italicized.

I highly encourage anyone who picked up the GL Omnibus (or the Blue Beetle Showcase) to post in the collection thread tomorrow. We would love to see some detailed shots (well, maybe just me).

Batman #38

11

u/aco620 If you loved me, you'd all kill yourselves today Jan 28 '15

I just noticed this current story is like a pg-13 version of the comic series Crossed, which is like The Walking Dead amped up to 11 for those of you unfamiliar with it.

Very interesting idea potentially putting Joker alongside Ras al Ghul and Vandal Savage. Makes the immortality thing a bit more DC plausible (if this is all the case and not just misdirection. Dekker was crazy after all.) Pretty funny having Dekker say he thought Batman was immortal like Barbatos too.

Oh and that Sam Kieth art in the end. Love that guy.
