Let's head back to Lazarus Island to see the League of Lazarus' big death tournament that Damian Wayne has placed himself in so that he can learn why this League was kept a mystery to him his whole life but for that to happen, our youngest Robin is going to have to survive and for all his bluster, it looks like Damian is going to have some actual competition in this blood sport because not only is Ravager one of the contestants, but Connor Hawke as well. Let's jump into this issue and see what happens now that the tournament has finally begun. Let's check it out.
Continuing our story of the refugees from Warworld, we previously saw Mongul's forces teleporting into the Fortress of Solitude to not only kill Superman's loved ones but to kill the refugees as well since Thao-La wasn't able to finish the murder job she was originally sent there to do. On top of that, we saw Superman take the Genesis Fragment from Atlantis, stopping a war between the underwater kingdom and the US but also making Superman persona non grata to both factions. Let's jump into this issue and see if Superman can not only stop the Mongul from murdering people he loves but also get back in the good graces of everyone around him. Let's check it out.
Synmar Utopica is trapped in the Phantom Zone, the battle is over and now all our heroes have to worry about is the United Order getting violent in their attempt to confiscate the Phantom Zone Projector from the Justice League. Beyond that, our JLD are dealing with Merlin in Atlantis where the ancient wizard plans on gaining even more power for his possible evil means and it's up to Zatanna to stand in his way. Let's jump into this issue and see if the Justice League Dark backup continues to be the only reason to pick this series up. Let's check it out.
It's time to get back to the espionage world of Checkmate, where Leviathan is up to some dastardly stuff.... like teleporting people places back and force and standing around and talking about things but just being coy enough about their subject matter that we at home playing along still have no idea what the end goal of anything is. So yeah, we have the big bad Leviathan doing some weird stuff and we have Checkmate not sure about said weird stuff trying to take him down. Let's jump into this issue so we can see more people standing around and talking about things that never really get fully explored... Let's check it out.
It's time to get back to the world of Jon Kent and his pursuit to figure out what kind of Superman he's going to be. In the previous issue, we saw our young hero save a boat full of refugees from Gamorra and demand that they were treated with respect by the American authorities, which may have been a bit of a misstep for Jon not only because he's taking more of a social stance against authority but because the President of Gamorra isn't one to be made to look bad and giving his people asylum did just that. Also, it looks like Jon made a friend in a podcaster/YouTuber who is all about exposing the truth..... I only hope it isn't just what he considers the truth though. Let's jump into this issue and see what Jon is up to this issue.
It's the first appearance of Wonder Woman from All-Star Comics #8 as we finish off the DC Comics Trinity's first appearances.
