From Wally West to Ted Kord, DC Rebirth has brought many beloved characters back to the DC Universe, sometimes even going so far as to resurrect characters the company killed off years ago. It seems like another resurrection will soon take place in the pages of Action Comics, as current Superman scribe Brian Michael Bendis has teased the return of the original Question, Vic Sage. RELATED: Doomsday Clock Might Finally Explain What DC’s Rebirth Really Means Earlier today on his Instagram account, Bendis shared an image drawn by artist Ryan Sook that features the original Faceless Fury standing over the bodies of criminals, smoke surrounding the character’s body to form a question mark in what Bendis calls a sneak preview.

DC artist Mitch Gerads has revealed the “actual” variant cover to Mister Miracle #12, the finale of the Eisner award-winning miniseries from him and writer Tom King. Gerads previously released an unfinished version of the cover, teasing fans on the ending he and Tom King have planned for the critically-acclaimed and highly-unique title. That cover featured a costumed Scott Free struggling to avoid being enveloped in a curtain-like darkness, with the books’ now-infamous line, “Darkseid is.” The final version he tweeted now adds Scott’s son, Jacob, as he holds onto his father’s leg.

Tom King is a renowned and fan-favorite writer that has written many modern comic book classics such as Marvel’s The Vision, Vertigo’s The Sheriff of Babylon, DC’s The Omega Men and, currently, Batman. Ever since the DC Rebirth relaunch in 2016, King has been at the helm of the title, guiding the Dark Knight on a journey that examines both his strengths and his weaknesses, as a superhero and a man alike. Over the summer, the series reached a milestone with its 50th issue, which is said to be roughly the halfway point of the writer’s run on the world’s greatest detective. We may have only seen half of King’s long term plans so far, but already we might have a hint as to how the run will conclude. RELATED: No, Really, KGBeast Is One of Batman’s Deadliest Foes If you’ve been following Tom King on Twitter, then you know that the prolific writer has become infamous for something else entirely: his art.

Preview art for Animosity: Evolution #8 reveals what the previous issue hinted at — that a vast and terrible civil war approaches the new animal kingdom. Issue #7 ended with a band of dolphins effectively cutting off the water supply to Wintermute’s followers. The preview art hints at the repercussions for those actions. The preview art sees all manner of nightmares coming to fruition. Not only has Wintermute seemingly turned a corner when it comes to brokering peace based on the idea of equality, but the war drums are beating loudly. The sneak peek even sees primates tripping over themselves to get into a tank, which is never a good sign. RELATED: Bendis Shares Rebirth Debut of The Question in Action Comics #1005 It will be interesting to see how the land forces of Wintermute engage those of the dolphins, the latter, of course, being sea creatures who are adept in their environment and capable of wreaking havoc should they please.

Judge Dredd co-creator and longtime 2000 AD artist Carlos Ezquerra has passed away due to complications from lung cancer. He was 70 years old. Confirmed by Ezquerra’s Spanish publisher EC Comics, news of Ezquerra’s death has led to an outpouring of tributes online from the comic book industry, including Mega-City One Creative Lead Rob Williams, former Judge Dredd writer Mark Millar, and former IDW Publishing Editor-in-Chief Chris Ryall.

It’s a literal “Flash Mob,” as comics writer Grant Morrison crossed paths with Flash actor Ezra Miller in Los Angeles. Morrison shared the photo of himself standing back to back with the Justice League star at what appears to be Cold Waves LA.

However, he did co-write The Flash with Mark Millar, placing the then-current Flash, Wally West, in some bizarre adventures, like battling a sentient super-villain costume and rcing against an energy-based alien across the universe to save their respective worlds from cosmic gamblers.

Few films in recent memory have aroused the same kind of curiosity as Ruben Fleischer’s Venom. The very premise of the film is audacious — a Spider-Man villain acting as lethal protector, all while his signature nemesis is nowhere to be found. The supervillain-led film is the first of its kind in the modern age of superheroes, and if it does well at the box office it may be the blueprint for Sony’s own flavor of Marvel Cinematic Universe offshoot. But the question on everyone’s lips is a simple one — does that flavor even taste good? Luckily, we don’t have to wait very long to find out. RELATED: Tom Hardy’s Favorite Venom Scenes Didn’t Make the Final Cut Early reactions for Venom have started pouring onto social media as the first layer of embargoes are lifted (early social media reactions are separate from reviews, which will start going live tomorrow night).

Chuck Palahniuk, author of the 1996 novel Fight Club and its 2015 comic book meta-sequel Fight Club 2: The Tranquility Gambit, is teaming up with Dark Horse Comics once again to continue Tyler Durden’s story with Fight Club 3. Joining Palahniuk in this new installment will be Eisner Award-winning artist Cameron Stewart (Fight Club 2, Hellblazer), letterer Nate Piekos of Blambot, colorist Dave McCaig (X-Men, Adam Strange) and cover artist David Mack (Jessica Jones, Daredevil). RELATED: Palahniuk Talks “Fight Club 2” & His Conflicted Relationship with Tyler Durden “What’s the first rule of fatherhood?” is the question Fight Club 3 poses. This monthly 12-issue maxi-series will revolve around Marla Singer, who is getting ready to have her second child. However, the baby’s father is not the unnamed narrator from the original novel, who now goes by Balthazar, but rather, perennial agent of chaos Tyler Durden.

Though DC’s new Freedom Fighters comic will take place in the current day rather than the past, its central villain is someone ripped straight out of the history book: Adolf Hitler. Or, rather, Hitler’s son and grandson. Robert Venditti and Eddy Barrows’ new 12-issue series takes place in a dimension where World War II went a decidedly different way from our reality’s. There, on Earth X, the Nazis won the war and have ruled the planet ever since. Now, Hitler’s son sits upon the metaphorical throne, and oversees what his father achieved. RELATED EXCLUSIVE: Eddy Barrows’ Design for Freedom Fighter’s PlaSSticMen Hitler’s son rules with an iron fist, but he’s pragmatic. By contrast, his son is all about cruelty and malice, driven by this warped view of the American population as his playthings,” Venditti explained in the latest issue of DC Nation. “There’s a struggle between the two of

DC Comics has revealed the line-up of upcoming titles and creative teams for the first wave of Wonder Comics, the new teen-focused, in-continuity imprint curated by Action Comics writer Brian Michael Bendis. According to the official press release from DC, Bendis revealed the information at New York Comic Con as a tease for his spotlight panel on Saturday night. Bendis himself is set to partner with artist Patrick Gleason on a Young Justice comic, which will unite Impulse (Bart Allen), Superboy (Conner Kent) and Robin (Tim Drake). Bendis also said he’d be introducing Teen Lantern as a part of the new Young Justice team’s lineup. Bendis and Gleason’s Young Justice, which will kick off the Wonder Comics imprint, is slated to debut early next year.

Lead The Walking Dead character Rick Grimes has thus far survived in both AMC’s television series and the comic series it’s based on, but he’s going to have to meet his maker at some point. At New York Comic Con on Thursday, franchise creator Robert Kirkman warned that when Rick’s time comes, don’t necessarily expect his demise on the show to have much in common with that in the comic. “I know exactly how Rick Grimes dies in the comic book and it’s possible there will be some difference there,” said Kirkman. “[In the comics] it could happen next issue or it could happen 10 years from now, I could change my mind. I can’t say anything else.” RELATED: Rick Grimes May Have Just Become The Walking Dead Comic’s Main Villain The fates of many of the characters have differed from those shown in the comic since the premiere of the television series.

Political cartooning is one of the oldest forms of comics. Ben Franklin’s “Join, or Die,” published in May 1754, is sometimes regarded as the first of its kind (at least in the United States). The tradition has continued down through the present day in obvious and subtle ways – with cartoonists like Thomas Nast, Garry Trudeau, Al Capp, and Walt Kelly contributing their wit to lancing the political elite. To no surprise, the current Presidential administration has inspired its fair share of sequential art retorts. Some of the very best criticisms of the Trump presidency have, maybe surprisingly, come from two artists outside the political cartooning stable, both best known for their mainstream comics work. Pia Guerra, famed for her five-year run illustrating Y: The Last Man, has been skewering the administration with a series of emotionally devastating one-panel stilettos. Addressing topics ranging from family separation at the bo

When writer Alan Moore and artist Dave Gibbons’ iconic Watchmen first hit shelves back in the 1980s, it completely changed the landscape of the comic book industry, ushering in a new age of darker, gritter comics. The merits of this shift are still being debated by fans and creators alike to this very day. As it turns out, however, Gibbons himself is actually of the mindset that the influence Watchmen had on the medium was just a little too negative. RELATED: Dave Gibbons Isn’t Done with Watchmen Yet Gibbons explained how surprised he and Moore were that their graphic novel became such a big deal in the first place in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. “It is amazing to me that after all this time there is still interest in it,” said Gibbons. “Alan and I thought we’d have a mildly successful series that would have its end and go into the remainder bin and that would be the end of it. The fact it’s kept on f

October’s Nightwing #50 will kick off the “Knight Terrors” storyline, which will delve into a traumatic event in Dick Grayson’s past. The four-issue arc will see Dick forced to come face-to-face with Dr. Jonathan Crane as he reminisces about a scarring time when he was at a crossroads in life. A new, traumatic injury will be the catalyst for Nightwing’s ruminations. DC Comics has teased the upcoming issue by tweeting a piece of teaser art alongside the caption, “Some scars run deeper than others.” The teaser is credited to Christopher Mooneyham, one of the artists working on the issue. DC has been hinting for some time now that Nightwing will soon receive a life-changing injury. It seems that injury might be a nasty blow to the head, if the teaser is to be believed.

Tom King and Mitch Gerads’ exceptionally harrowing Mister Miracle, a comic that has both breathed new life into the world of the New Gods and provided poignant commentary on the issue of mental health, is preparing to come to a close. With Mister Miracle #12 set to hit comic book shops in late October, Gerads has officially revealed his variant cover for the comic. This cover features a costumed Scott Free as he struggles to avoid being enveloped in a curtain-like darkness.

For those who are familiar with the origin of Vandal Savage and, for that matter, the Immortal Man, it means that the meteor that created these evolved and immortal cavemen was actually a piece of the Totality itself. It means that whatever this power ends up being in the end, it has a clear ability to evolve life into superior beings, as previously seen during the title’s opening storyline. The Totality designed the universe as we know it, and may even have the ability to grant people superpowers, for all we know. RELATED: A Long-Missing Hero Returns in Justice League #7 – But What’s It Really Mean? Savage has always been an evolutionary anomaly who split from the natural order of the world to become a powerful shaper of human history. However, now it appears that his origin is far more unnatural than we ever thought, as the supposed “blueprints” of the Multiverse had a hand in creating him. Also, if you trace events back

Of course, it doesn’t look like Carol will get off on the wrong foot with Law’s character — at least, not right away. “These extraordinary powers she has, he sees them as something of a blessing and something that she has to learn how to control,” Law teased. “That’s a motif throughout the piece, the element of learning to control one’s emotions and to use your powers wisely.” Nevertheless, it’s worth remembering that Marvel rarely makes direct adaptations; the studio typically takes a character concept from the comics and works it to fit the film plot, while staying true to the spirit of the character. It wouldn’t be surprising, then, if Yon-Rogg didn’t start out as a villain, only to become one later on. In fact, Doctor Strange pulled a similar stunt; Karl Mordo was originally a mentor and ally to Stephen Strange, but turned villain when the foundation of his faith was shaken. Cap

Marvel Comics has announced Guardians of the Galaxy will be relaunched by writer Donny Cates and artist Geoff Shaw in January, and the title of the first story arc will borrow a very important phrase from Avengers: Infinity War. Cates has been tearing his way through cosmic Marvel on titles like Death of the Inhumans and Thanos. Now, he’s also slated to take the reins on Guardians of the Galaxy as they try to recover from the events of the currently running Infinity Wars story. RELATED: Marvel Comics to Relaunch Guardians of the Galaxy in 2019 “Geoff and I have some INSANE plans for our first Guardians arc,” Cates told Marvel.com. “This arc is called ‘Endgame,’ and as seen in Thanos Legacy, it begins with the reading of Thanos’s last will and testament. An artifact that Thanos’s brother Eros dug out of his late brother’s heart, which very well may spell doom for the entire universe.” &ldqu

Lois Lane’s upcoming retrospective has more to it than just secrets about Superman, according to the issue of DC Nation released this week. Earlier this year, in the Brian Michael Bendis-helmed Man of Steel miniseries, Lois Lane and her son, Jon Kent, decided to travel the stars with Jor-El, Superman’s father. Lois went to keep an eye on her son and find material for her next book. The revelation that she has been back on Earth and working on the book without telling Clark only raises more questions. What happened with Jor-El? Where is Jon? And perhaps, most importantly, what did Lois learn that’s got her hiding from Superman? RELATED: Action Comics #1001: What’s Lois Lane’s Big Secret?
