Man, I'd love to hear someone else on y'all's staff's opinion. I know you're a fan of Huntress and Power Girl and are a big Earth 2 defender... but I still like this book 🤷‍♂️. I think it succeds as a way to get new readers up to speed and potentially discover new books (even if heavily retconned).

Peak. So good.

Okay. Well, I just got home, and I'm going to crash pretty quick. I hope you enjoy the rest of the series, if you end up sticking through!

Now, it's been a few years, but I vaguely remember the forces they were connected to being linked. So take that with a grain of salt. But also, I don't think poor sentence structure will harm her reputation permanently.

It doesn't seem like they explicitly called her a Deathbringer. Plus limited real estate and the idea that new readers may read older books because of this one means some details get left out.

I just flipped back through it and didn't see anything too jarring...?

I think we will see it align next month! Supergirl returns in Post Crisis and we will find out how!

These characters go through all sorts of changes all the time, none of the stories that she went through didn't happen. And sometimes you regress a bit when you visit home! After issue 3, maybe we will find out how Supergirl returns! Maybe it's a healing coma that can be explored in another book!

Yeah, Crisis happens in Post Crisis too. The heroes just remember it differently. They don't have the ability to read the other comics 90% of the time, so it's cool to see the characters perspective in universe.

So I understand your frustration with the lack of multiverse acknowledgment. However: I love this as a document from within the universe as a time capsule for what their history looks like now. I think your take about multiverse works better in an essay or video, rather than a narrative.

I read your piece on Crisis and found myself agreeing a lot. This one I'm more cautious. Don't you think any re-introduction of Helena Wayne as the daughter of main universe Bruce gets just as ... sweaty as any other explanation DC uses for timeline shenanigans and reboots?

I'll read it tonight then ig

Are y'all not covering the Darwyn Cooke drawn secret files issue? It's so goodddd.
