What was he thinking?

I saw a discussion on a board about UTH and this is just my thoughts on it.

Deathstroke #34 Preview

Featuring a family photo of the bat boys. The first time I've seen Jason in one since he became Red Hood.


SPOILERS AHEAD

Updated Wish List

I'm pleased to see Mattel has been filling out the bat family and improving their lines (*1) with their character selection. But there's still some characters that need to be made or remade. This could act as a list for other companies like DCC or Mezco but I don't see them going out of their comfort zones right now.

What I'd like to come from the Deathstroke story

Disregarding the disheartening rumors for a moment I'd like to examine possible positive outcomes from the story. At least the one I think it could have if handled properly.

The word bubbles on the RHATO cover for #25

I love how he's echoing Batmans' words. The first words of this bit:

Batman: My city. My rules. You get one strike, Jason. If I think for an instant you're in too deep--I'm pulling you out. If you take one life--for whatever reason...I'm coming for you.

Short Review: Flash #51

I forgot that this was the epilogue for Flash War.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Extremely Short Review: Catwoman #1

I pre-ordered this and I just got it in the mail.

SPOILERS AHEAD

DC Solicts for October 2018

Did--did DC just spoil one of their books before it was even released?

This is also the month for the foil covers which I'm currently undecided about.

Random comic related thoughts

There was a lot of news over the week and additional thoughts I didn't want to separate into different entries.

Potential SPOILER for my opinion on a plots' direction

Star Wars Black Series Figures

I'm happy to see that so many Rebels figures are being made. That leaves just Zeb and Kallus left. I'm glad Solo is still getting figures too.

SDCC Mattel 2018

None of the characters I was hoping for but I do see some nice figures.

EDIT: This site has pics of works in progress including a figure I've wanted to have a proper figure for a long time. I hope Dexter Soy sees it.

John's shares information on The Three Jokers

I'm a little unclear if the Black Label will connect with the main canon. I was  under the impression that it doesn't but this storyline was introduced in the main DCU. This is briefly touched on but I'm still a little confused.

SDCC Lee & Didio talk about the big picture

Found here. My thoughts ahead.

Injustice figures

Including the fan requested Red Hood.

DC Collectibles Press Release

I hope DCC has more revealed at SDCC because I'm pretty disappointed.

Looking back at the All Caste

Some things that stuck out during Lobdell's first run about this group. This is just idle musings.

Cassandra Cain in BOP Movie

This makes me happy. With a little luck she may regain the Batgirl history in the comics.

In other news I guess the solicits will be announced with comic con. I forgot it was this week.

Why did Jason do it?

I've been seeing some confusion over this online and gave this some thought.

SPOILERS AHEAD

How Heroes In Crisis came about

I heard that this King interview mentioned Booster and skimmed it to get to that part.

Is Bruce too harsh towards Jason ?

At the beginning I'm talking about various punishments and threats Bruce made. That's mainly to get to a big retcon that really bothers me.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Red Hood and the Outlaws #24 Vol. 2

Due to solicits we already have some idea what's going to happen and where it leads into the next arc. That doesn't mean there's no suspense in how we get there or what else happens.

SPOILERS AHEAD

RHATO art

By Clayton Henry. I don't think anyone besides Soy draws the jacket sleeves up. Given one of the covers for #26 I'm guessing this style won't be done for awhile.

Flash #50

The last issue of the Flash War arc.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Variant for RHATO #26 Vol. 2

Shown here. Cover by Yasmine Putri. I'll be buying two issues for this arc to support the series. I'm glad because I liked the first cover and this one looks epic.

Possible art for the Annual?

You can't tell much but the guy with the backwards baseball hat might be Roy.

SPOILERS AHEAD

RHATO #24 Vol.2 Preview

I only saw one page but it's adorable. This will be a nice treat before things get tense.

Steve Ditko Died at 90

He did a lot for comics and it's strange to think he's passed on. Rest in peace Steve Ditko.

Flash Waid TPB Vol 1

I wanted to read more about Wally West after having my interest perked in Flash War. I wasn't sure what issues to read but I've read Waid's work in the past. How does this trade measure up and what do I think of Wally?

SPOILER AHEAD for Flash

Honestly it's pretty messed up

I've been hearing things about it Batman 50 and when you think about it the wedding that was planned doesn't sound so great.

SPOILERS AHEAD

DC Nation ad for Heroes In Crisis

Which has a page of characters that may fall in the three categories listed.

• Three are suspects
• Two will be murdered
• One will be the murderer

What's the odds of the characters listed fitting the roles?

SPOILERS AHEAD

Batman Prelude to the Wedding: Part 4 Red Hood vs. Anarky

I hoping for more of a fun time with this one.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Is King reusing a previous Booster Plot?

I just saw a spoiler page for an upcoming issue. What's really WTF to me is related to the Booster Gold arc King did.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Batman #50 was SPOILED

Spoilers found here.

Some thoughts about this. SPOILERS AHEAD
