OK fine but they TOTALLY stole that cover from the magnificently underrated MCU classic MADAME WEB!!!!

This was long overdue!

A lot of people said we didn't need this because we already have the original 1986 Marv Wolfman and George Perez series. But that was 40 years ago, and a lot of things have happened in DC history, including continuity-destroying events like New 52 that made everything stop making sense, plus an eventual restoration of the Post-Crisis continuity in Doomsday Clock where they assured us that everything happened.

Mark Waid isn't rewriting DC history, he's compiling it, polishing the rough edges and streamlining it. And boy, does he do an impressive job. The research for this thing is absolutely phenomenal. There's even things that I didn't even know existed. It's a wonderful work of love that shows the breadth, scope and wonder of the vast DC Universe. Dare I say, this is even more comprehensive than the original version, with all due respect to the absolute legends that are Wolfman and Perez. The amount of material is just overwhelming. Indeed, everything happened, Waid is just showing us how.

I still need to see how are they going to handle the most messy parts of the continuity, but so far I have to say I'm impressed with what I've seen. My only nitpick is that they don't reference that Hippolyta as Wonder Woman is actually beint time displaced from the modern era of heroes and that it happened during John Byrne's run. I think it's important to clarify that because Diana should always be the first Amazon that set sail for man's world, and that she created the Wonder Woman mantle and her mother is being inspired by her. I hope they can fix it in the collected edition or perhaps it will be shown in issue #3?

A spectacular work of love brought by the man who is perhaps the biggest DC fanboy there is, and a must for all DC nerds! more

Ah-hahaha just needed to point out Russ's review on YDRC: "The desire to go into the characters pants is something that's absolutely necessary at this stage."

It says something about the size of your supporting cast when you need to caption all of them so the reader can keep track -- two issues in a row. Either you're the Legion of Super-Heroes, or you have too many characters.

Needs more Wacky.

Really loving this new version of the Priest.

As random and ephemeral as reading Mad Libs.

THIRSTY BIZARRO HATE BOOBS ON COVER!
