    Default Going Live! Sideways Appreciation Thread!


    DEBUT: February 2018

    BIO: During the events of DARK NIGHTS: METAL, high school junior Derek James accidentally fell through a rift into the dark matter dimension! Now, as Sideways, he can create rifts in midair to leap through dimensions at will!

    Sideways #1 Preview

    I know it's a little early and the character hasn't made his official debut yet, but the preview impressed me enough to start this thread! He seems like a cool character and throughout reading that preview, I couldn't help imagine him interacting with other DC character's (ie Blue Beetle, Beast Boy, Supergirl...etc) or joining the Teen Titans. What do you think?

    I too am very curious about this title. Hos powerset seems pretty fun. I like his character design. The concept intrigues me....

    Sideways may very well be the first on-going I purchase from DC since the new 52.

    I wonder if he will use his powers similar to how Blink from the X-Men uses hers :

    Yeah, I think there's a strong possibility that he'll use his powers like how Blink does over in Marvel. I'm cool with that since I think she has really cool powers. Plus in the preview he was opening portals and jumping through them

    It be cool to see him and Duke meet up and hang out later on. I think they might be good friends.

    Sideways is a cool idea with great artwork so i'm interested in checking him out.

    Cool, he has his own thread.

    I would say other than the obvious and what I've stated about my interest in Sideways, I will say that even the villains highlighted are interesting, I mean one of them seems probably more an antagonist than a villain and the other could be more anti-hero/vigilante instead of a straight up villain. So it's cool to possibly see the different types of individuals Derek will be opposing instead of straight up bad guys.
    My priority is black female characters; everything else is secondary.
