I really want to read John Constantine comics But my personal problem is that hellblazer dead in America is too not self contained or the narrative is just too incoherent. So I went back to the beginning to original sins but I like a more modern maybe a little higher resolution art style as in the new absolute Batman for example so any ideas where I can start?
Is DC cosmology still relevant with this map? Or is it no longer something we should bother referencing?
For me, I read several graphic novels pre-new 52. And then followed along for some time during new 52 and rebirth. I couldn't keep up after, but often watched few summary videos on youtube about dark metal, future state, dark crisis, etc. Saw Absolute series recently and trying to read through them. I don't think I'd have to know and understand entire cosmology map of DC comics, but thought it might be good to have some basic idea.
I've read mixed things online. From what I understand The Zero Year titles are prequels and as such don't really continue the storyline and have seen nobody really talk about Graveyard. Is it necessary? Or is Endgame the next arc that I should read as it is where the Joker reappeares after Death of the Family?
?
I am on a blue beetle (Jaime Reyes) reading marathon starting from his debut.
Now I am reading Rebirth and I just got done with volume 1, but I got stressed out reading this stuff! Everyone is constantly arguing, bitching and yelling with each other, calling each other names, it's like no one gets along with each other in this title!
Paco and Brenda are always arguing every single panel they are in, Ted Kord seems off and he and Jaime Reyes also argue and yell every time they talk...
There are two newly introduced characters and those two just constantly argue with each other calling eachother names and constantly disagreeing with each other.
Hell even characters in the background are arguing with each other! (Yes for real).
And it feels like no really takes Jaime Reyes seriously for some reason... I mean the dude has a killer scarab that is a weapon of mass destruction on his back and he fears it and yet no one cares? And people have the guts to tell him to stop lying about it and they don't believe his nightmares where he destroys everything? Even though they live in a world where crazier things happen??? Like... what the hell?!
I am a huge comic reader and I can handle a lot (I read Spawn lol). But but this constant arguing with every single character its going to burn me out and I feel stressed reading it =/
Does it get any better or should I just drop it? I prefer not to drop it because I really enjoyed the other runs and I love the idea of the blue beetle...
Currently reading Tom King's Mister Miracle and I am quite enjoying how quirky and fun it is to read. Are there some suggestions of other comics to read after that in a similar vein? Thanks!
I got a new phone, and I wanted to download Infinite on it. I’m paying for it and I’ve been paying for the service for a long time now. But I can’t even use it.
Apparently I’m not putting the right login information in - I only have two emails that my account could possibly be connected to, but they’re not sending me the link to reset my password whenever I try to put one of my emails in.
How can I go about canceling my subscription, if I can’t even login to this app? I can’t login to do that much. What damn fool runs this show?
The studio comes to you and tells you that you get: • 3 Justice League films. • You get trilogies for Batman & Superman + 1 more Leager of your choice. • A solo film for 1 Leager • One additional film of your choice • A Live action Teen Titans Show set in the same universe.
Whats your timeline order? What Leagers are you choosing? What villains are you using for the three Justice League films? What Icks you trying to avoid?

When I saw the cat and realized that the professor was killed and replaced by someone looking like her, I for real thought for a moment that it was Klarion The Witch Boy and Teekl, with him using magic to look like the professor with him working with Circe for some reason. I especially believed this because of Eric's comment about the cat omen.
However, in hindsight, the beginning of the episode with Clayface at the professor's job would have been made a lot weirder and more Ew if it was Klarion... So yeah
I’m having an issue with finding a good reading order that has everything from this era with it.
I always wanted to learn more about black Canary so can anyone suggest a good origin story?
I'm just getting into everything superhero related and I have to ask: in which order should I watch the movies, and in which order should I read the canon comics about Batman? I already watched Christopher Nolan's trilogy and I don't know what to do next Also, what are the must-watch DCU and DCEU movies? I meant to post this in the r/batman, but I dont have enough karma :)
Disclaimer: This is not my go fund me and I have done no work on the campaign outside of sharing it. I am sharing this here after getting approval from the mods because Sozomaika is one of my favorite artists and her contributions to the DC Comics universe are substantial and outstanding.
As some of you may be aware, SOZOMAIKA (You might know her from her incredible DC comic covers at https://www.sozomaika.com) was hospitalized just before New Year's Eve. Without giving away too many personal details, after intense pain and checking herself into the ER, it was found that some of her internal organs had started to rupture during a time she had already been fighting the flu. She was given supportive emergency fluids and was in the hospital for over 12 hours. Over the last few days, it has been incredibly hard for her to have even enough energy to keep any water or food down, let alone chip away at any work. To make matters worse, she just relocated and has not yet found a permanent living space.The funds raised will be enough to cover rent, any missed or turned down work while she recovers, labwork testing and bills for the ER visit, and any refunds she may have to issue for outstanding commissions. It will also buy her some much-needed time to recover from the burnout that resulted in these serious health issues and get some much-needed rest.
With so many big events in comics, it can be easy to overlook the effects that the original Crisis on Infinite Earths had on DC.
Look at the books published before and after Crisis, especially Superman. The difference is night and day in how the writing is structured. Dialogue became more naturalistic. I don't think it's a coincidence that a lot of the older writers and artists were let go around this time. I heard that even Paul Levitz changed the way he wrote Legion of Superheroes.
I guess what I am trying to say is that Crisis on Infinite Earths was a reboot not just in content but in presentation as well. It brought DC up to date as it were.
