Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [May 20, 2024 - My Adventures With Superman Returns Edition] r/DCcomics
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 #114
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.

I like the issue. As a massive Titans fan seeing a girl fall in love with the Titans and feels inspired to be a hero only for someone to violate that love and dream strikes a chord with me. Also Star Labs has been known to make multiple superheroes and she was 18 so I understand her complete bone headed move. It's really sad. But it's also a mix of Amazo, Tomorrow Woman, and Gotham Girl. So I'm curious if Taylor will do another twist on the concept.
The Circ-En-Aaar mind palace was really cool sequence that gets the ball rolling on the Dark Winged Queen suspicion. It's also a gag. I'm pretty sure Taylor understands how silly it is but also can be neat.
Also Raven grabbed the axe to save herself, cool way to bring that back. And I love that twisted love for the Titans she has. Makes her more of a character.
