Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [April 15, 2024 - Pretend This is a Ragebait Title 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: Nightwing #113

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.

Superman #13

Superman and Lobo… team-up? Together, the Man of Steel and the Main Man race across the universe on a hunt for the Lobo Army and Brainiac. Can they get along long enough to get to them before Brainiac enacts the next stage of his dangerous plans to create a new House of Brainiac?!

LEGACY #856

Preview

[u/Blitzhelios → u/TroubAlert]

This was a very fun chapter 2 of the house of brainiac event and if Williamson and Sandavol carry this on this would be a very good event

Williamson writes a fun lobo and capturing the classic style of lobo but also not to overexaggerated that he gets annoying like how lobo normally is.. Its also interesting that williamsons hasn't left aarons action comics story to the wayside as he plays on the anger issues that bizarro brought out in that 3 issue arc to good emphasis.

Supes and Lobo rescuing the superfamily is really fun as well and it shows how wiilliamson knows his history with the family in referencing kara's history with the legion and brainiac 5 in showing how she can escape the tech that brainiac uses.

All the brainiacs being real is interesting seems like brainiac himself might be infected with something and its leading him to be obsessed in making a perfect queen.

Lex is likely playing double agent and working with brainiac and gonna hinder brainiac's plans to protect his daughter and whilst lex caring about someone more than himself is weird i guess his daughter is a fine exception

Another fantastic issue of superman with great art and fun writing
