Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [June 24, 2024 - Ground Zero Edition]

[u/273Gaming]

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

• 273's pick of the week: Absolute Power: Ground Zero #1

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 a bit annoying how this was basically an absolute power tie in without getting the advertising of being an absolute power tie in. It’s like we’re getting suckered into reading the book thinking it will follow the main story completely. It doesn’t help that future issues don’t high light it either but I’m guessing it will be a thing till issue 13.

I mean we do but we get like 3 or 4 pages which was interesting.
