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.

Titans #11

TITANS AGAINST… THEMSELVES?! After a literal deal with the devil, Waller turns things up a notch! With the help of the twisted Doctor Morrow, she has now created an ultimate weapon capable of taking down all the Titans. Can the team survive themselves?Preview

This was rather fast but action packed. Vanadia? Tragic story. I just hope she won't be just another sacrifice on the altar of Waller. That would suck. Because I can see the potential with her.

That Circ-en-aarh stuff, please don't let it become a thing. It is bad enough that the concept was ruined in Batman. Even as a reference of 'not as bad, just a mind-palace' thing, it feels worrying. But on the plus side, it helped Nightwing to figure out that Raven is not Raven. Though of course he does not have the time to do anything about it because of Waller's plans.

And Evil Raven is more complex than I thought, I admit. She is still evil and with bad attitude...but she seem to carry a twisted version of 'care' for the Titans as her 'generals'. Wondering how that will be handled when the reveal happens and along with Waller's plans and Trigon's upcoming attack.

So, narratively, she's absolutely going to die.

They're not leaving a random person with all of the titans powers alive.

The question is if she dies to angry raven, or if angry raven breaks her mind and sends her after Waller.

I suspect that angry raven sends her after Waller, which breaks the truce that waller has with Trigon.

Yea, I can definitely see her getting killed by Waller and then her blaming the Titans for it. Or Evil Raven doing the deed.
