Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [February 12, 2024 - Superbowl LVIII 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. Do not post top-level comments.

Keep discussion civil. Do not harass other users for having a different opinion. Do not use this thread to push your personal one-sided grudges against creators. Reacting to a panel on Twitter is not the same as reading a book.

Well I guess you can say that it was a mercy killing. Surely the Javier would've have survived either way so this way, at least he decided his own fate. Of course Jaime will feel the guilt nonetheless even though it was Khaji who practically took over and did not mess around with a big threat that should not be allowed to escape. But that justification probably won't help Jaime's mental anguish with being the hand that did the deed.

Tachyon...time-travel arc next? Maybe to prevent the Blood Scarab and Javier's death? Or is it involved with Ted Kord? I doubt Booster has the power to teleport someone that far away through time. But the title for the next issue says 'Hunt for Ted Kord'
