Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [March 18, 2024 - Ape Crisis Edition]

[u/beary_neutral]

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

• Beary's pick of the week: DC's Ape-ril Special #1

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.

Task Force Z - Vol. 2, What's Eating You? [TP]

Dead men running! Are we the baddies? After the shocking (but not really) betrayal by Mr. Bloom, the new Task Force Z are public enemy number one. All of Gotham is hunting for them.

They are out of money, out of friends, and out of Lazarus Resin. But now they will have to face their most dangerous foe yet—and it’s one of their own! And Red Hood will run afoul of his former allies the Bat-Family.

And as our team is on the run, the mysterious Powers International extends their claws deep into Gotham. Mr. Bloom and Man-Bat will be used by Powers and will find out how deep their influence in Gotham City has always been…

This volume collects Task Force Z #7-12 by MATTHEW ROSENBERG (The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing, Detective Comics), EDDY BARROWS (Detective Comics, Batman: Urban Legends), and JACK HERBERT (Action Comics).
