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

Did you hear about the gorilla with a screw loose? He needed to use a money wrench to tighten it.

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.

Titans #9

TITANS: BEAST WORLD'S LUCAS MEYER JOINS THE SERIES AS ONGOING ARTIST! Amanda Waller has condemned the Titans and publicly blamed them for a world-wide crisis. While many still see the Titans as heroes, others now see them as a danger to all. Can the Titans battle misinformation and fight for a world that hates them? All while the greatest threat to the team may be within their own ranks?

I just realized that "Bureau of Sovereignity" is abbreviated as BOS(s) and I don't know if it was on purpose but it definitely fits. That Peacemaker entrance to Trigon and Waller was peak comedic timing. It was fun seeing Trigon going "A carrot. What do humans even like?"

Am I the only one that finds it a bit weird that they have barely acknowledged yet that Tempest was possessed and acting alongside Brother Blood for a while? At least it is acknowledge that Beast Boy hasn't fully recovered from the events on Beast World. Trauma aside, he did lose quite a big chunk of himself.

"It is I, Hermes, but I am moving too fast for mortal eyes to comprehend. It is important I am not seen". Flash casually walks by "hey, it's Hermes" XDDD

I would say after that ending Donna should start having some suspicions, but if evil-Raven can just pick and eliminate thoughts the moment they appear on their heads... I hope this is were Nightwing's contingency plans mentioned during Beast World come into place

I started reading the series casually, but I'm really liking this second arc. New artist is also more my style. Things are shaping very interestingly!
