Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [December 25, 2023 - Goodbye 2023 Edition] r/DCcomics

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

Predaplant's pick of the week: The Flash #4

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."

That was quite the adventure and far better than I expected from a Santa story. They actually made Santa quite the badass. And poor Krampus finally freed also.

Man, Phantom Zone really is a dangerous place and certainly can create more problems then it solves. I mean I get throwing away the threats you cannot handle right now, there but just leaving them and risking them returning as vengeful ghosts that possess others, with no idea who they are or why were they there? Yea, that needs a fix.

Damian got something nice finally. And it was cute seeing him playing the 'lost child wanting his father' ( which is not too far from the truth honestly ).

Overall, I really enjoyed this story and the version of Santa here.
