    That was a fun read! Good use of the characters, especially that Detective Chimp story! Glad to see Fialkov doing some DC work again. Also, how's that deep cut with Sam being Grodd's grandson? Don't...
  2. Specifically, this is the All-American Boy from...

    Specifically, this is the All-American Boy from the Superman/Batman arc "Kryptonite". This is exactly the kind of crazy stuff I like to see McFarlane make. I'm still glad to see them make classic...
  3. Sanctuary is one of those ideas that, IMO, will...

    Sanctuary is one of those ideas that, IMO, will probably always be around now that it's been introcuded. With the proper writer it can be a powerful feet of clay feature.

    I'm intrigued about how...
  4. Like HsssH said, Dino Cop is from the Image...

    Like HsssH said, Dino Cop is from the Image Earth, Earth-41. The funky part is it does contain doppelgangers of the WildCATS, at least. So it's got some of the Image era Wildstorm stuff from before...
  5. Yes, but on the Wildstorm Earth that was...

    Yes, but on the Wildstorm Earth that was destroyed in one of the Multiversal shake ups. (Technically it was destroyed even in its own timeline, but that's another kettle of fish)

    JLA/Avengers was canon to Busiek's JLA and...

    JLA/Avengers was canon to Busiek's JLA and presumably Marvel. Captain America/Batman is more or less canon to Superman/Batman Generations- the Joker makes allusion to being in a Russian prison camp...

    The big retcon in this issue gives me flashbacks to Futurama's big reveal. Anybody else?
  8. Yeah, I don't blame you for that at all. To...

    Yeah, I don't blame you for that at all.


    To me, this felt like a pretty stock "Batman's popularity among fans, writers and editorial alike" is choking out other potential stories, making the...
  9. This was a good issue. Thick with meta narrative,...

    This was a good issue. Thick with meta narrative, but I think it works given that it's echoing complaints fans have had for a while.

    Something I thought was interesting:Bleeding Cool posited...
  10. One thing to note about the Spectre in this issue...

    One thing to note about the Spectre in this issue is that he's not Jim Corrigan or the Spectre unbound. Corrigan says he's still dealing with identity issues after dying (assuming this is around 1942...
  11. It was a hook set up during Convergence (and...

    It was a hook set up during Convergence (and possibly the Green Lantern mini from Convergence- I don't remember specifically). It was pretty much tossed aside during the Rebirth restructuring.
  12. Out of all the deep continuity cuts, Waid's Brave...

    Out of all the deep continuity cuts, Waid's Brave and the Bold isn't one I'd expect. That was a fun exchange.
  13. It's the New Challengers from the New Age of...

    It's the New Challengers from the New Age of Heroes relaunch, yeah. I thought it was interesting the history recap tried to untangle the Gordion Knot of Challs continuity, even including the...
  14. Interesting. Not to derail this, I just skimmed...

    Interesting. Not to derail this, I just skimmed Ladd's Wikipedia page. Sounds like he was doing a weird mix of credited but small roles and outright uncredited all while having been under contract...
  15. Apparently Ladd was getting mainstream attention...

    Apparently Ladd was getting mainstream attention from film roles as early as 1939, so while he wasn't as big a star as he would be in a few years, he was known enough in 1940.

    One small detail that might fly over peoples' heads: the Dr. Freeman mentioned is almost certainly Dr. Walter Freeman, the self-aggrandizing psychologist who pioneered and commercialized the use of...

    Honestly, I'm just surprised that the Johns Gog was used at all. I was expecting Waid to at most sidestep Thy Kingdom Come.
  18. It looks like you're right on the first two. The...

    It looks like you're right on the first two. The pirate is the wrong pirate, though- Captain Leatherwing of Earth-31 is on the first page at the bottom. I was talking about the purple masked guy...

    Gimme some help cataloguing the Multiverse worlds shown. What're the following from:
    Batman with the electric Bat symbol inbetween Superman Red/Blue and DCAU Batman
    Knight looking Batman with the...

    Editorial didn't initially choose Johns to take over. They had him do a fill-in (Wonderland, I think it was?) and he continued on the book due to fan reaction. Had nothing to do with how any other...

    When was Beppo named Beppo?

    So, I've been reading a bunch of the old Superpets stories that DC reprinted in the Tails of the Superpets trade and I noticed something weird. We all know Supermonkey is named Beppo, right? Except,...

    When you think about it, Hell is kind of the ultimate bottled city... It kind of makes sense that Brainiac would take an interest in it eventually.

    That's correct, Mandrakk the Dark Monitor turned the Anti-Matter Ultraman into a vampire. As a nod to this, the Blood League of Earth-43 had an Ultraman instead of a Superman.

    I don't think there has ever been a nexus of Parliaments before, no. The Parliament of Limbs was introduced in Lemire's Animal Man, though.

    If it's going to be someone from First Issue Special, I'd bet the mystery man is Kharis, the mummy antagonist from Dr. Fate's issue. Note his use of the word judged- Anubis wasn't quite the Judge of...
