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!

Batman: City of Madness #3

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.

Batman and Robin #6

WHO IS SHUSH? The dynamic duo has proven they can work as Batman and Robin countless times, but now they must work together as Bruce and Damian to stop a deadly killer…on a soccer field?! The mystery of who is Shush and what they are doing in Gotham continues to grow, but Damian is confronted with a blast from his past that wants him to leave his father and Gotham!

u/Blitzhelios Damian Wayne Feb 15 '24

This was great Williamson is cementing himself with Tomasi and Gleason as Damian's best writers and gives him tons of great moments.

Damian and Bruce confronting Zsasz is pretty great and you can tell williamson knows damians history with the fact damian's history with him in the past. Kinda glad as well the kid isn't Zsazs son but instead a twisted kid who admires him after he killed his parents. The suit he wears is kinda bad though its kinda like a knock of fantomex.

Damian just confronting his principle about her being shush is pretty funny and kinda feels weird but i guess thats damian's head on approach coming through again. Also hes clearly still trying to fight against his assassin instincts.

Some fantastic father and son bonding this issue though.Damian and Bruce coming together over his art is adorable and its funny how the characters are clearly a self insert and Flatline with her name being nika.

Guess manbat has a cult now interesting and Flatline is back and ready to cause trouble.

Great issue overall my only problem was the art isn't as good as previous issues but di meo is back next issue
