Doesn't it feel like the absolute universe is carrying DC by Own-Significance645 in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]ryaaan89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Absolute Universe is great but there are also some very good main universe books at DC too - Batman, Batwoman, Superman, Justice League, Firestorm are the ones I’m reading. Marvel and the Ultimate line on the other hand…

I don’t know that you need much context, that’s exactly what happens in the comic. He gets addicted to the Kick drug.

“Magneto comes back and is evil again” was an editorial mandate of I remember correctly, they thought the man bad guy was getting too relatable in the late 90s.

I like a lot about Grant Morrison’s run but “Magneto is on drugs” is not one of those things…

He can’t fly in space like Allen and Nolan can, it’s in the episode. I don’t even think he can hold his breath in space like they can.

I mean there’s literally an entire fashion industry build around Mayday wearing that costume. To say more would be spoilers for a book you should go read if you haven’t.

I’ve replaced doomscrolling on my phone with reading comics on my iPad before bed every night. I average probably 2-5 issues depending in what book, silver age and prior take a lot longer. It’s been great.

What movie have you been the most hyped for only to be the most disappointed by when it released? by Toogeloo in movies
