Dark Crisis Announced

[MarquisAsh]

Can’t believe they are showing more than 2 Wonder characters. Looks good to me. Hopefully Diana is the one who survives. She was the one going through the Godsphere for months!

[Noodle]

Second verse, same as the first!

[Vordan]

Meh, I'm not that hyped to be honest. I have more interest in the characters who are in the Justice League, not these new legacy characters.

Not even the new black Batman ?

Mixed feelings about this.

But if it finally straightens out all the damn confusion about what may-or-may-not-be "canon" when it's all done, maybe it will have some benefit.

Lol if they did say what was canon you would immediately start complaining that whatever was kept canon doesn’t make sense in the new timeline.

[Will Evans]

They didn't reveal the survivor, by the way.

It’s obviously Black Adam. Isn’t he currently a JLA member but he’s depicted as being alive with everyone else.

Edit: Wait! Jessica Cruz is a Green Lantern again?

[Marvel Man]

They didn't reveal the survivor, by the way.

Well, not exactly but...

They said the team fighting against the army was Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, John Stewart, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl, Aquaman, Green Arrow, Black Canary, and Zatanna (10 members) and only one returned. And in this preview we can see statues for Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, John Stewart, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl and Aquaman (7 members) and the Flash. So, there are no statues for Zatanna, Green Arrow or Black Canary. Who's the one that survived? And why there is no stature for the other two?

I gotta admit, ever since Other History brought the receipts I really can’t stand whenever Deathstroke is prominent

[Sodam Yat]

Not even the new black Batman ?

Nope lol. I never cared for that character. I always thought Luke Fox should've taken that mantle.

Probably the only characters I have interest in would be Wally, Nightwing, Cyborg, Black Adam, Shazam!, etc.

But if we're talking about very new characters? Nah I have no interest in them to be honest.

Ok so I always roll my eyes when I hear the word Crisis these days. I loved the original Crisis, really liked Zero Hour and loved Infinite Crisis...but after that just stop already. Plus I am not a fan of Williamsons writing. He seems like a good guy who loves the characters and I respect that but his Flash, Infinite Frontier and Justice League Incarnate is meh.

That being said...this line alone will get me to check the book out "but it’s not about reboots, retcons, or rewriting time and space. At its core it’s about the characters and the relationships that we’ve seen built over DC’s great history". At least the #0 issue and first issue.

Fingers crossed it is a fun read and it is nice to see Wally and Jeremy Adams involved.

What about Flash?

[Marvel Man]

What about Flash?

Ups! That's true! Flash was not mentioned but he is one of the statues So, how did Flash died if he was not among the heroes fighting the Dark Army?

[Drako]

First time in years i'm actually excited about an DC event. I'm seeing a bunch of my favorite heroes in central stage and the motif of the book being Legacy that is something that i really like about this universe.

I'm all for it, can't wait!

[Vordan]

If the right side is the new league, it's pretty dang awesome. Here's hoping.

Likely will be some of the major characters, but Williamson says there won’t be a new JL for a while. I think at the end of Dark Crisis we will get the FS JL lineup with Jackson replacing Andy.

What about Flash?

Wally doesn’t look to be going with the team and he’s in Dark Crisis.

[Johnny]

Seriously - on both covers?!?

Strike three. lol



The art is great though so I guess I can deal with it.

With Infinite Crisis, after time the mean-spirited way it killed off and disposed of characters really destroyed any positives about that event.

[Jabare]

A few points

1. They better not kill off John Stewart
2. I only care about a handful of characters in this. DC you know who I care about don't do them dirty three.

3. I guess I need to pay attention to Aqualad. I loved him in the first two seasons of Young Justice. From the little I've read in the comics I haven't been as impressed. Maybe I need to give him a chance.
