All rise for the Commander-in-Chief!
2021 was Calvin’s biggest year since Multiversity came out. He’s getting a big push currently - no doubt to coincide with the Coates Superman reboot - and is taking center stage during the Infinite Frontier era. Being a major player in both the titular IF mini and the Justice League Incarnate mini has hopefully helped built awareness of him, and Brandon Thomas wrote an excellent Calvin IF Secret Files one shot that left me wanting more. I’m expecting to see Calvin at the center of the 2022 DC event that Williamson is writing and I do hope those romantic teases between Calvin and Dr. Multiverse bear fruit. Any luck and we’ll get a Calvin solo mini announcement this year!

Wasn't the implication in issue 3 that they tried and didn't work out?

Oh man, I had just finished watching Office Space when I started reading JL Incarnate #3. Laughing fist pump when Calvin said, “Superman movie… rounding errors…”
Talk about a funny coincidence, couldn’t have planned it any better, heh.

Incidentally, this the only floppy of that run I couldn't find. Guess I'll just have to frequently consult my omnibus.

I'd love it if McFarlane made a Calvin Ellis figure for the DC Multiverse line. The Mattel one is great, but we need an updated figure in the new scale.
