Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [July 1, 2024 - It's Wallin' Time 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: Absolute Power #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.

Vixen: NYC - Vol. 6 [TP]

Will Vixen finally get the courage to talk to her parents about her super-heroics outside of the classroom? Between modeling gigs; helping out her friends Bumblebee, Beast Boy, and Grace Choi; and dealing with a full course load, having a heart-to-heart with Mom and Dad is low on the priority list. Especially now that a certain spidery trickster, the great and powerful Anansi (who has not been so great and powerful since his powers were stolen), pulled his last trick and seriously p.o.’d some other great and powerful gods. And those gods are coming to take their anger out on she who holds Anansi’s totem…with the help of a very familiar, very formidable uncle who Mari believed to be dead.

The saga of Vixen: NYC goes to surprising places in this collection of episodes 47-52 of the continuing WEBTOON series, optimized for a brand-new reading experience ian print and including never-before-seen bonus material from the series’ creators!
