The Multiversity #2 Preview

[Broddie]

It's finally here!

Superdemon!!!

Vampire Sivana!!!

Bring on the madness!

[Clairaudient Freedom Soldier]

At last! Just show me a little more of Earth-11's Justice Guild and Earth-18's Justice Riders and all will be well in the world. I am ready for undiluted joy. Are you?

[Dispenser Of Truth]

Is this the first time Morrison's written Etrigan? Makes sense he'd be rhyming about what amounts to storytelling, and Etrigan being just the most astonishing dick bounces great off of him also technically being the Superman of this universe. And I'm definitely reminded reading this that I've heard Morrison doesn't like Constantine.

Also, Earths 43 and 13 are connected by one of the spirals, suggesting it may indeed function as a means of directing transportation through the Multiverse.

Morrison has convinced me that Earth-13 should be the main reality for DC. The mystic league rocks!

[K. Jones]

I assumed Morrison couldn't resist going to Earth-13, but man, phew, glad to finally get it. Shakespearean Demon. The pinnacle of Gothic Romance. Count Sivana's hypnotized the Blood League into a problem! I like that Count Sivana's troopers have crazy black over-tech armor that's both vampire and techy (kind of Underworldy, actually, right?). And I note once again that the Superman of Red Rain looks a hell of a lot like the vamipiricized Ultraman after Mandrakk revived him. Plus Zillo Valla was the original owner of the Ultima Thule and Nix Uotan's mother, so I shouldn't be that surprised that we get some more focus on the Red Rain Universe either ... (recall that she was the Monitor of the vampire universe).

God, which one of the Sivanas is "Dark Sivana" from Earth-13? Sunglasses Sivana? Would he wear sunglasses in a world of perpetual twilight?

Manapul's History cover is really nice, but I think it's impossible to top that Starlin homage by Allred.

Snake sivana is my favorite!!

very nice, I'm really exited for wednesday

[Sharkey]

Constantine is so stereotypically English here that as one of those English weirdos I have to laugh.

Superdemon looks positively intimidating here, creates an interesting juxtaposition in that he is supposed to be the "good" guy.

On a footnote, only just noticed that the Blood League has an Ultraman, before that I assumed he was just another Superman analogue.

My body is ready for this!

Is this the first time Morrison's written Etrigan?

It seems this is the mostly the first real significant use.

I'd love to see Grant do a gothic series with him (which probably won't happen). I love when Grant goes gothic romanticism.

Thanks for posting it!

The closest Morrison been to the The demon must'v been Klarion in Seven soldiers?

And while mentioning seven soldiers. Feels quite like it, it and Final Crisis wrapped up as one.

Can't wait to try to make sense out of it. Having quite recently read Seven soldiers, Final Crisis, Action Comics and the issues leading up to Ultra comics... My body is ready!

I believe Frankenstein was the Etrigan stand in (who was, when the team was based off of the Avengers, sort of a Hulk stand in).

With this particular series? always!

Wednesday can't get here soon enough.

[Lake Nowhere]

Multiversity has been one of the only big events in recent memory to really live up to the hype. I wish Morrison would just keep cranking out these one-shots with different artists.
That being said, I can't wait to have this whole thing in a nice big hardcover.

[Ivan Hunger]

Earth-43 Sivana doesn't wear a labcoat. He wears a labcloak.

[buttler]

Is this the first time Morrison's written Etrigan?

Jason Blood had a notable appearance in Morrison's Animal Man, but not in Demon form. Other than that I think Etrigan's been limited to the occasional cameo role.

[Geralt of Rivia]

Multiversity has been truly lived up to expectations, looking forward to the grand finale.
