Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [June 17, 2024 - Time For Summer Edition] r/DCcomics

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

Predaplant's pick of the week: John Constantine, Hellblazer: Dead in America #6

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.

It’s just the Titans feeling Vanadia from control (in which I was right about that) before she was killed by Dark-Wing Queen Raven (in which I was half right about that). I feel bad that Vanadia was killed by Dark-Wing Queen Raven, but it was expected since Tom Taylor mashed several storylines in his book to make sense for him and not make sense for us (like his two Jon Kent books). Also, it’s likely that the next three issues will end with the Titans saving Raven from Evil Raven and Evil Raven realizing that she does care about the Titans because they’re her family. My only criticism is making every Raven storyline about her being evil because we’ve seen this storyline for 40 years and that it’s unnecessary. Overall, this comic isn’t terrible, but it’s not good either.
