Plus, Superman flies onto the scene to shake things up even further! From the creative team that brought you last year's Event Leviathan comes the next surprising chapter in DC's most dangerous saga.

The synopsis for these read less like coherent plots and more like a kid explaining his doodles. Why wouldn't Lobo be in Space, Snyder. He's a fucking space bounty hunter.
Also does anyone at DC remember Maxwell Lord used to be one of the good guys?

Welcome to planet Rann, Mr. Terrific! Earth's champion of fair play has traveled halfway across the galaxy to investigate firsthand the crimes Adam Strange stands accused of. He's not going to find many friendly witnesses, though, as the people of Rann consider Adam Strange their true champion. Yet for all the resistance Mister Terrific faces on the surface of Rann, his true opposition may be lurking closer to his subject than he realizes. This adventure between two worlds continues, with Mitch Gerads drawing the gritty Earth sequences, and Evan "Doc" Shaner showing us the splendor of Adam Strange's battles in outer space!
Moore's Watchmen style, cadence, voice filtered through brainlet Johns in Doomsday Clock was daft and hilarious. His take on the Killing Joke should continue this trend.

Variant cover by IAN MacDONALD
The price on Harley's head is getting higher and higher, and more and more of Gotham City's most dangerous villains are crawling out of the woodwork to claim it. So where the hell is Batman? And after what she's put the Birds of Prey through in just a few hours, is Harley going to have any allies left to protect her?
Who comes out on top when Bumblebee, a journalist, and a super-villain get in a fight? Find out when Karen Beecher and Lois Lane face off in a battle of wits with... Harleen Quinzel?! Three students top the leaderboard at Metropolis High, and the upcoming midterms will determine who's the best in class. But each girl must first face challenges from their real lives!
From New York Times bestselling author Grace Ellis (Lumberjanes) and artist Brittney Williams (Goldie Vance) comes a new story about 13-year-old Lois Lane as she navigates the confusing worlds of social media and friendship. It's the first day of summer break in the sleepy town of Liberty View, and young Lois Lane bursts onto the scene with what she knows is a sure-to-go-viral video channel. Okay, maybe her platform only receives two views a week (thanks, Mom), and maybe her best friend, Kristen, isn't quite as enthusiastic about social media, but when Lois sets her mind on something, there's no turning back.
At the end of the week, the big neighborhood barbecue and bike race will be the perfect backdrop to Lois and Kristen's #friendshipchallenge video. But when the girls find out the annual fireworks are missing, Lois doubles down on her efforts for fame, testing her friendship in ways she couldn't imagine. With Kristen leaving for sleepaway camp after the barbecue and a new girl on the block taking all of Kristen's attention, will Lois be able to find the missing fireworks, celebrate the summer, and post the best #friendshipchallenge the internet has ever seen? Or will she have to face her challenges IRL?

Things only get worse when they encounter the bunks they'll be competing against in the camp's games: the Titans East and the H.I.V.E. Five! Given all of that, there's only one thing on Robin's mind... No, not escape. It's how to beat the other bunks to become the camp champions. This is Robin, remember?

Ryder Murphy
The sad thing is, if that leak of the script is even halfway accurate (and there is A LOT from the trailer which points to it like Diana lassoing the lightning, Maxwell Lord getting his powers from a magic wishing stone, Steve being rez'd) the movie actually sounds like an okayish to do a Maxwell Lord villainy slide story well because the man will have second thoughts by the end of the film, be redeem and go to prison willingly.

There is a greater mystery at work, and Jackson makes a deep-seadiscovery -- but not before a depth-defying battle with Orm! Speaking of Ocean Master, he's bringing all of Dagon to the wedding ceremony, and the Seven Kingdoms will never be the same again!
I want to believe the idea is too absurd to ever see the light of day. I thought nobody was insane enough to do anything with Grail other than pretend she doesn't exist.

In the epic finale to our story, Harley will come face to face with the person pulling the strings and learn who's out to see her fail!
