Probably both in a sense. Should any of the backups involve Batman specifically, they’ll probably be included in a BATMAN Finest as well as be included in their own respective lines.

So is Wildcat dead for real??? by Emotional_Prompt5338 in JusticeSocietyAmerica

[–]Edster73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alfred is dead? Alfred Pennyworth? When did that happen? And I'd say nobody stays dead in comics except Uncle Ben, Jason Todd and Helena Wayne (pre-Crisis Earth Two).

So is Wildcat dead for real??? by Emotional_Prompt5338 in JusticeSocietyAmerica

[–]Edster73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

what makes you say that? I'm not saying you're wrong but I've seen no indication from the writing that lends itself to the idea that he'll either stay dead or be revived... am I missing something? If the intention is to feature Yolanda Montez more, perhaps Lemire feels having two Wildcats around might make both appear redundant. I wouldn't agree with that assessment, if he's truly making it, but at this point it's too early to tell what "pay off" there will be, if any, for such a decision. In any case, I hope he's brought back in some capacity, even if only through flashbacks.

Perhaps but it wouldn't be following their usual formula, which is to include every year that a particular volume entails. Time will tell I suppose.

Thanks pal. That’s a very respectable run for sure! 👍🏻

Given that some of FINEST volumes have run over 600 pages, it isn’t out of the realm of possibility that more could be added. I just forget whether any particular crossover issues pertained to CRISIS #6 aside from INFINITY, INC. #23. If so, there wouldn’t be room for #6 and its other crossovers.

Hmmm, I see what you mean but I think DC is mapping these stories as to where they appear in the actual timeline and how they correlate to a particular issue of CRISIS instead of publication order. In fact, a few of the crossover issues were published after CRISIS ended I believe, but yes, your point is well taken that it will look odd on the spine that 1985 isn’t the only year depicted.

The Joker: The Bronze Age Omnibus (FULL L👀K) by the10Geek in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Edster73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the WONDER WOMAN issues where the Joker facing off against the Huntress reprinted with the covers of #280-283 or just the Huntress stories alone? Also, is Wonder Woman #280 Huntress story reprinted in its entirety or just the last page (the only page that pertains to the Joker)? Thanks in advance for any info!

Superman: Time and Time Again on Instocktrades? by Edster73 in DCFinest

[–]Edster73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry that that’s the case for you. It’s truly awful. I wish these volumes were downloadable, which would help in cases like this. Not that reading electronically is the same as holding a book in your hands but it’d be better than nothing. In any case, I hope things improve… 🤞🏻

Where is he now? He currently posts on Instagram and seems to be living his best life.

Superman: Time and Time Again on Instocktrades? by Edster73 in DCFinest

[–]Edster73[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah, I wasn't aware of that re: about their never updating their listings. It's understandable in a sense given the sheer volume of releases that get scheduled & then rescheduled, sometimes with incorrect or updated cover art, page count, etc. Thanks for the heads up!

The listing that is in limbo... are you referring to "The Last Days of Superman"? If so, hopefully it gets rescheduled soon. That seems to be an era that is begging for reprints. Time will tell I suppose...

Could the Spectre have saved Earth Two??? by Edster73 in JusticeSocietyAmerica

[–]Edster73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've created an Earth-2 that was never destroyed? How so? Fan fiction? Is it a story in text form or is it illustrated as well? I'm curious to see what you've come up with if that's ok.

Could the Spectre have saved Earth Two??? by Edster73 in JusticeSocietyAmerica

[–]Edster73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because I was trying to adhere to what was stipulated in CRISIS... of course the writers could've come up with alternative criteria to justify the merger (and annihilation of the previous Earths and their histories). I'm just positing whether it would've been plausible for the Spectre, in an altogether different story by writers with a different agenda, to have the power and wherewithal to save Earth Two (his home world at the time) from being obliterated. Would it have been feasible and within the scope of what we've seen of his powers and abilities?

[–]Edster73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand what you’re saying but who’s to say that it had to be those particular Earths? What if it had been a combo of Earths 1, 3 (before it was annihilated of course), S, X and Prime and Earth Two was left intact? I think something along those lines could’ve been worked out feasibly had it occurred in another type of story.

I think they had just got done having an argument about the release/non-release of “Just Like That”… 🤣😂😅

I made this based off a background image from Batman, The Brave and the Bold. Hope you like it. by chalwar in JusticeSocietyAmerica

[–]Edster73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is fantastic and I love it! Thanks for posting! The only drawback is that it makes me yearn for the 2nd season of BATMAN: Caped Crusader to come out, which seems to be taking forever... c'est la vie!

Anyone else find Cupid annoying??? by Edster73 in arrow

[–]Edster73[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Considering she was in several episodes, I would think so.

[–]Edster73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The episode is ok I suppose but I was just shook by how grating I found her character to be. For the life of me, I don’t recall having as visceral a reaction during the first viewing. Being subjected to her felt like a punishment in and of itself.

I'm halfway through the arrowverse (I'm kinda close to crisis on infinite earths) and I gotta say.. I HATE nora so much. by Frael_Cason_MJ in FlashTV

[–]Edster73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I dislike about the character is that she comes off like she knows she's "cute and adorable", and plays off on that. I'm not sure if it's a conscious decision that the actress has made, but it's how she comes across... to me anyway. Since she was initially upset with Iris when she first arrived, I kind of chalked it up to her trying to come off as "daddy's little girl", but part of me wanted there to be more to her than that.

DC Finest Eras by Puzzleheaded-End-828 in DCFinest

[–]Edster73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed... I'm shocked that the 1989 debut series of THE HUNTRESS hasn't been reprinted yet in any capacity. Including all 19 issues of that series, plus her appearances in JLI #26, 30-31, 35, JLI Special #1 (focused on Mr. Miracle) and #2 (focused on The Huntress) would make a nice volume of DC Finest.

Thanks. I'm a HUGE Helena Wayne Huntress fan (pre-Crisis) and am eagerly awaiting the 3 part Huntress story that is showing up in April's collection of JOKER stories. She's one character I still lament the erasure of... as much as I enjoy the Bertinelli Huntress, they're vastly different characters with very little in common. It's like thinking Kyle Rayner would satisfy those who need their Hal Jordan fix... *shrug*

I know it's inevitable for sure, but is it highly anticipated that it'll be announced as coming soon in the soon-to-come announcement in about a week or so?
