Wonder Woman, Batman, and Superman are trapped in nightmare worlds within the Dark Multiverse! They'll need to face down their fiercest foes once again if they hope to accomplish their mission and bring back a power capable of stopping the Darkest Knight. But what horrors has he unleased on Earth while they've been locked away?!

[Frontier]

Rogol Zaar against the Legion? Somehow I'm not surprised yet still disappointed at the same time. I hope Bendis doesn't drag him out too much.

I have no reason to be invested in Synmar yet. Nothing about him just feels all that new.

Jon looks like he's between ages on that Action variant cover.

Is that robot Silver Banshee the first time she's been seen since the New 52? Aside from her headshot in Reborn.

[Superlad93]

Rogol Zaar against the Legion? Somehow I'm not surprised yet still disappointed at the same time. I hope Bendis doesn't drag him out too much.

When Bendis teased that Rogol Zaar would be back, but not where we expected him, I guessed it would be Legion, but I thought that was too obvious.

Personally, I've been waiting for these two to interact away from Clark, Kara, or Zod.

Guessing he's gonna become Presuader, and this is set up for the Fatal Five. They'd have their very own out-of-time-half-kryptonian.

[sifighter]

I actually like how Teen Titans and the variant for Action make Jon look, like he is an actual teenager and not a young adult. Like he could reasonably be 16 or so, since we never established a set age.

Probably the best thing to do with him at this point. Why try and make an OC happen when you can just make him a canon DC character all along .

[Blue22]

The unstoppable behemoth Rogol Zaar

Why. Are. You. Back!?

[Superlad93]

Probably the best thing to do with him at this point. Why try and make an OC happen when you can just make him a canon DC character all along .

I'm likely wrong about the Presuader thing.

But this is a chance to to flesh him out and even revamp/reintroduce him.

All I've ever wanted from the character is that I know more about him.

Honestly, I think you had something there with the Persuader thing. I'd rather see the Fatal Five rather than Bendis try and make Zaar happen again.

Dunno. Last we heard the ax was burnt out and non functional. They could fix it, but they could also fix it and give it to someone else. Persuader is kind of nothing without his ax, and Zaar certainly isn't.

[NaVi]

action comic 1026 Starring Jonathan Kent, Conner Kent, Supergirl and the Legion of Superheroes. And Superman?

[Frontier]

I thought it was part of his visual. Without it he doesn't really seem as intimidating.

[Sacred Knight]

God its depressing how uninteresting everything Superman related is. If there's no other-imprint solicit in a given month these days its just a huge pass all the way through. Only thing remotely interesting is YJ for if nothing else the concept and characters, but it needs a new writer.

[Superlad93]

Without it he doesn't really seem as intimidating.

Not how I saw it. Without it he took on Clark and Zod to a standstill, and then instant victory once it was just Zod. Clark even mentions that he has no idea how he keeps finding the strength to overcome everything they throw at him.
