And recently, DC Comics did this to drive them even further apart. As Lois Lane exposed Superman's identity to the world as a responsible journalist would, holding the powerful to account and critique, just like she used to do in the forties and fifties. I know, I know, I've already had the hate mail. But for all of[...]

Kind of his thing. And this is the Oracle as appearing in this last week's issue of Convergence. Blimey, when did he get so chatty? He can rest but he still keeps wittering on… I wonder if the "special thanks" to Scott in the credits is to thank him for stopping going on about how Oracle should be silent…. [...]

It's He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe, isn't it? Skullthor, how couldn't I have seen that.. Star Wars seems to stray into Empire territory, with Han and Leia foreshadowing a very dsimilar conversation to come, as Leia does an impression of Kristen Schaal… It's not easy being Xander either. In Convergence: Flash, we get a look at the future[...]

In today's Convergence: Flash we meet the Tangent Superman and the Pre-Crisis Flash as they square off But Superman and Flash begin to ask certain questions about Telos, the being who has imprisoned them in the domes… Are they talking about the writer? The editor? The publisher? Or the readers? It can't be Telos… He can't even turn of[...]

Oh, and Star Wars #5 was almost all Boba Fett! I squeed throughout, and can't wait for next issue's Skywalker vs Fett!
