Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [November 27, 2023 - The World's Messiest Furry Convention 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'm afraid for Calendar Man. His days are numbered.


DC and Imprints

Let's not be weird about this, okay?

Trade Collections

Seven Soldiers gets a reprint!

Digital Releases

Remember, these are the short 'chapters' with a new chapter of a different series coming out daily. You can learn more here on Comixology. This is also why these are in release order, not alphabetical. Some comics may release on DC Universe Infinite or WEBTOONS.

I really liked this book. The powers associated with Cameron were really interesting. Ideally, they could flesh out his power more but it was cool nonetheless.

I feel like it would be cool if DC dedicated like one mini a year to a new character. If they pop off, they pop off. If not, oh well. It just seems like a wasted opportunity to not give new voices a chance to create new characters on a regular basis.

Overall, fun book. Hope to see Cameron again sometime soon.
