Man, this thread wasn't updated in a long time !
What do you all feel about the "Old Gods" being [spoil]corrupted by Darkseid in coming months apparently (even if I guess the September cover could be misleading?). On one hand, I'm fine with that because it shows how dangerous Darkseid is. On the other hand, I'm not too fond of Azrael, Koriand'r and Vic being made puppets of the God of Evil for whoever knows how long...[/spoil]

DC seems determined to turn all of the Teen Titans characters evil or kill them off. Are they phasing them out to build up Damian's generation?
The preview is out, and I'm liking that it finally connect the Odyssey to the larger story of the J/D War : [url]https://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/2019/07/05/exclusive-dc-preview-justice-league-odyssey-11/[/url]

Cyborg looking menacing.
Oh, so they get turned and Jess forms a new team to stop that? That's... super disappointing.

I kind of expected this,DC is determined to turn members of the Titans franchise into villains.I wonder who's in Jess's new team.

Same thing's happening to Joey over in Deathstroke, Crush is being controlled by Lobo, and Donna might be a member of the Secret Six.
This is why I barely read any DC. :(
Reading the preview text of the solicit had me worried that original team sans Jessica were getting scrapped. Now I'm getting the idea that this is a stealth Jessica Cruz book and I hope I'm wrong. I don't know how everyone will get decent focus if 3 of them turns evil and have no real character during that status.
Guess that's it for me.
I don't know. Jess has less than 10% ring power left. Having her teammates get brainwashed and turn against her, leaving her facing impossible stakes could make for good drama. Just has to be played right.

But as someone with no reason to read this book other than one or two of the characters that [i]aren't[/i] Jessica Cruz, you can see how this would be problematic, right?
I'm game if Dex-Starr is on Jess' new League team :p.

No. No, I don't. It's a team book. Everyone gets a chance to shine.
