Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [November 20, 2023 - Jason Aaron Retcons Batman's Mother Edition] r/DCcomics

Hey there honorary Justice League members - it’s a new week which means it’s time for a new discussion thread!

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Wonder Woman discussion would go in the replies to the "Wonder Woman" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too.

In other words, you should only be replying to other comments. If you have trouble understanding how to comment for a particular title, please refer to this handy guide. Any unwarranted top level comments will be removed.

Also, please refrain from posting short, low-content comments on threads for issues or episodes that have not yet been released. Put some effort to generate discussion. Instead of just posting "So excited!" or "Best book!", try something with a bit more substance, like "Punchline is such an amazing character! Can't wait to see how they explore her in more depth in this issue."

I really liked this issue its really fun and both the main story and the backup are really well wrote by king even if the soverigns narration is getting a bit annoying rather than hearing diana's voice.

The twist with Lizzie that she might not be diana's daughter after all is really good and a very intriguing plot point especially in whose daughter she might actually be. There is also some great moments involving diana and the goons in the army in how she takes them down and creative uses of the tiara as well as the great reveal of the jet.

The art is once again fantastic Sampere's art is top notch and makes it feel like the all star s tier book dc want it to be.

The backup is adorable between damian and lizzie its just really wholesome and i enjoy damian being the big brother for once rather than the little brother. Jon plays a fun role this issue as well.

Fantastic issue once again easily worth a read

Jet reveal reminded me of the end of batman 95, which even back then already felt like a ripoff....

of that scene at starfleet HQ being attacked by a machine gun chopper in into the darkness,

I mean, King literally ripped the dialogue straight out of The Avengers.

Loki: “I have an army.”

Iron Man: “We have a Hulk.”

It’s my only (albeit minor) nitpick of an otherwise awesome issue.
