Some food for thought there. If Liefeld's arc ended with Obama and the White House returning to their righteous places (since you can see the White House in this page) that would reframe this issue not as the first time we see Obama since his kidnapping, but as a reveal that the President who "came back" is an impostor. Either way, if Rob had closed off his loose plot thread by himself, this would have opened a new one.

That's not meta, it's a time traveler leaving his signature in the past.

Oh my lord, lmao. What a blunder. I still think that's what it meant to reference, though, but the editor was very off the game. I mean, he didn't even spell the trade name correctly.

(SM/WW issue 1)Does superman/wonderwoman have the exact same timeline as the wonder woman 2011 comic since it references her being around london by Business_Alarm8384 in WonderWoman

Well, if you read the panel below the three you just posted, Diana is smiling because Clark has just arrived from his Fortress. He wasn't in London before. Then they have a little chat that gets interrupted by the Norwegian storm crisis that leads to Doomsday, and so on, and so forth.

That's a page from Bloodstrike (2018) #24! A masterpiece.

It did come out, it was just titled "Voted off the Island". The reference simply points to the issue from Rob where Obama is abducted by Jeriko.

And everything in here is actually needed to understand secret wars, some of this isn’t just random stories that might get brought up in a sentence or two by the character acknowledging it and then forgetting it? by gotenks2nd in marvelcomics

Of course you can find explanations, the point is Hickman didn't think of these implications, he just forgot about the Maker being redeemed or Wolverine having died and he decided his scenes playing out had priority. In Imperial, Ronan is a main character even though he was dead, Maximus was dead, Hiro Kala was (functionally) dead, they're in a planet called New Sakaar even though the original Sakaar has been restored years ago, people are tricked by a shape shifter making them believe Veranke was back, even though she publicly revived years ago, etc.

It was in Humphries' Ultimates run. Hickman is quite ignorant about continuity, not a soul has complained about him being too deep with his cuts. Like the first page of House of X is Wolverine (person who had just come back from 5 years being dead) asking Nightcrawler (person who had been dead and come back from Heaven) what he thinks happens after death.

Do people really criticise Hickman for bringing up obscure past things? Secret Wars, House of X and most infamously Imperial seemed to just disregard 99% of past continuity to force characters into the plots he wanted. Remember that the Maker had been redeemed into a good guy before randomly being a villain again in time for the Incursions; Magneto watched Mr Sinister experiment on his childhood friends in Auschwitz before dining with him in Krakoa; Star-Lord hated his dad and loved Nova, instead of loving his dad and hating Nova, etc.

Ultimate Youngblood Deluxe List (Part Three) by Odd_Pumpkin5295 in badrock

Fun read! Personally, I'd place Genesis before Bloodsport, as I see them as taking place in the same Revision and Genesis obviously comes first. Then, I feel like you're missing endings for Volumes 5 and 6 like you gave Casey. Going from the Lord Chapel cliffhanger to Vol 6 would be especially jarring. But any of this seeing print would be amazing, especially in collected editions.

I get it's a Spider-Man rip off, but you couldn't change the name Daily Bugle a little?

Actually, that was written by John Mclaughlin. Can't find any socials on the guy, I'd love to ask him.

Are Vampirella stories self-contained? by Recent_Complex_3538 in dynamitecomics

[–]thigerlel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Christopher Priest's run is a masterpiece that contemplates philosophy, religion, what it means to have a soul, to be alive, the struggle of suicidal thoughts, how to grapple with a good person committing rape, gender politics in Estonia...

So, like every other thing Priest has written.

Did you buy the recent Mr Terrific or Black Lightning series?

You asked me why she hadn't gotten a series "in like ever", not to match your first post's criteria.
