For years, Amanda Waller has seen the heroes of the DC Universe as a dangerous threat that could lead to the end of the world. Ever since Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths, Amanda Waller has operated in the shadows to collect deadly weapons and to create an army of allies who agree with her. Now she’s forced to bring some of the worst enemies of the DC Universe an offer they can’t refuse. The Dawn of DC Primer 2023 Special Edition, written by Joshua Williamson with artwork by Leandro Fernandez, reveals Dawn of DC’s secrets, threats, and connective stories in 2023 and beyond!
As a prologue for the big "Dawn of DC" event, Dawn of DC: Primer more or less does its job. Joshua Williamson gives readers an important piece of world building for the story, offering up a frustrated Amanda Waller who is just done with the heroes of the DCU and is now ready to take actions against them from the shadows, of course.

Can't beat the price. And I didn't mind the story. Solid art. And it does introduce the underlying DCU threat for the upcoming year. Too bad that scene were Waller is more skilled than Assassin. That kind of threw me off. Read Full Review
While some of the steps in Dawn of DC havent been the most exciting, this direction is intriguing and should be interesting to see play out throughout the DODC universe. Read Full Review
Entertaining lil comic.
Killing off a few of the newer DC characters wouldn't be a bad idea.
I think Amanda Waller has become a parody of herself. Go back and read the original Suicide Squad series, or hell, just her Secret Origin issue. The difference is night and day. She has lost so much of her character through DC constantly trying to make her a major threat with less and less justified reasons each time. Last we saw her, she took over Earth-3. There was a whole event about it. Not even referenced here.
