In comments that I have made here and in Mister Silver Age's forum (may it rise again), I have asserted that the DC Multiverse (Pre-Crisis) had contained several versions of Plastic Man and, by extension, Blackhawk. But then I started thinking down a

Trillium is an eight-issue miniseries based upon a very creative sci-fi concept, involving teleportation across both space and time. The story begins in the year 3797 on a distant planet. Scie

DC's April-May event, Convergence, will be a 9-part weekly series framed by 40 2-part microseries, each apparently featuring characters from alternate realities and DC's past. In addition, it looks like the books will feature a lot of talent not regu
As I fell behind in watching Arrow, I was surprised to learn that Brandon Routh who played the Man of Steel in Superman Returns had been cast as RAY PALMER though not as THE ATOM at least no yet. Ray also appears in DC's New 52 comics but not the Tin
It seems like both the hardcore collectors and the casual reader have been focusing on the new revelations and movie incarnations of longtime Avengers, QUICKSILVER and the SCARLET WITCH. I have been a fan of both characters since I read those Silver
