The only good thing about is the fact we are closing to the end. And Emanuela Lupacchino art.

It was cringeworthy, so boring and predictable. Throwing this men are bad in every issue gets just that cringworthy. Doesnt matter if its a satyr, elf king, Thor or ofcourse Wonder Man. Diana needs to throw some one liner about patriarchy in every issue. If the stories were at least connected a more

Abrakadabra - Aug 10, 2021

https://www.comichron.com/monthlycomicssales/2021/2021-06.html What started as a normal 35k run peaked at 773 thanks to well sex, dropped to 27 on 774. July predictions are not yet complete. But WW according to presales not even yet registered https://www.comichron.com/monthlycomicssales/2021/2021-07.html Lets be realistic here. 775,6,7 will be even lower. Many people shitted on neo Gotham and Cyberpunk vibe of Tynion's Batman. But one thijg was certain. Dude made the sales almost double.

So go real Sensational and quit acting like you have some inside scoop, or know better. There are other Wonder Woman stories for you. Quoting sales and acting like you understand the industry is weak, and you’re clearly hurt by something else.

Again no. I just looked at the cover. Another double Diana story, when she's supposed to have BEEN dead? WHERE'S NUBIA? Hell, where's Yar? DC needs to stop bullshitting the readers and pass the torch. Pussyfooting time has been long gone.

Diana’s darkest self has emerged as a new opponent, and she’ll need help from an unexpected ally whose connection to thunder has inspired many a tale: Thor!

This is so ridiculous. A writer, an artist, a colourist, a letterer, and two editors worked hard on this book so you'd give it a 1 because a character you like isn't in it. You realise the solicit for this came out in February, and nowhere in them was Nubia mentioned? You wilfully spent $4.99 for a hissy fit you could've spared yourself. Good for you.

Axolotl - May 13, 2021

DC announced a Nubia and the Amazons book coming this year at ComicsPRO. The release date and writer haven't been announced yet, but it's in the works. They put it on their website as well, if you want to copy and paste the link. https://www.dccomics.com/blog/2021/02/19/dc-teases-new-series-and-confirms-free-comic-book-day-at-comicspro

I vomited after seeing the last page.

I'm excited for John's Stargirl, Ram V Swamp Thing, Suicide Squad, and Williamson Robin. I might check out PKJ Superman and the new Wally Flash series (but Brandon Petersen's art is absolutely horrendous).

Regardless, I new the Quintessence was going to get offed because of the leaks that came out a while ago and it really blows that high more

Maybe they should have hired someone from Brasil to write about a Brasilian character -- instead Joelle admits she'll write Yara as if she grew up in Idaho, trying to discover her Brasilian identity, because Joelle herself is from Idaho.

She created the character, though, so we are stuck with her

If you read Future State: Suicide Squad, then nothing surprising happened this issue since it was all spoiled in those two Future State issues. Because of that, this first issue just feels like a month wasted on trying to surprise readers with plot twist most fans already knew about.

At least it sets up a potentially interesting prison escape. Hopefully the next few issues won't r more

This book was meant to be a teaser for things to come, which is indeed what it felt like.

Some characters get more screen time than others, especially Batman who gets a lot of pages for his story. I don't know why they felt the need to give Batman so many pages when his book comes out the same day. Other characters stories could have used a few extra pages, the Titans story felt esp more

The story was solid. Art fit the tone perfectly.
The lettering was amazing. Lettering can really add subtext to a story if done properly and this is an example of that.

This has by far been the most consistently enjoyable comic I have read all year.
Many comics have there high and low points but I can always count on Justice League Dark for a bone chillingly enjoyable comic.

I really enjoyed this issue.

Ripley Ryan as Star was SUPER obvious, I would have been more surprised if she wasn't Star. And her backstory isn't terrible, she gets kidnapped by Nuclear Man in the first issue and goes of the deep-end realizing how breakable her average human body is and wants superpowers to feel safe. She makes a deal with a mad scientist to get those powers.
