It’s been a little while since I checked in on The Flash, I think the last one I read was the final issue of Joshua Williamson’s outstanding run. The funny thing about this book is that each time a writer does a long extended run, you think nobody’s going to top that. Yet someone always comes along and seems to at least match it. Back in the day Cary Bates did a great run. More recently Mark Waid’s was great. Even more recently Geoff Johns put together an outstanding run, and then Josh Williamson. The Flash clearly has such rich mythology and characters that it’s the perfect playground for writers. The converse of that, of course, is pressure. Any new writer coming in has to take on that history,...

As stay-at-home orders started to crash over the world at the end of March, Diamond Comics Distributors announced that it would be suspending shipping of new books. Diamond has been functioning essentially as a monopoly for years, so this move meant, for all intents and purposes, the end of new comics releases, and it’s been that way for a month. But now, DC Comics announced that new comics will be hitting shops on April 28th, and the way they’re doing it could be a long-term shift in how we get the comic books we love.
The new releases are a scaled back list of new titles, not the full list of books one would expect to come from DC on a regular basis. Shipping on the 28th are Laura Marks & Kelley Jones’ Hill House book, Daphne Byrne #4; the final issue of Si Spurrier and Bilquis Evely’s run...

Billy Batson rounds out the Shazam Family for his battle with Black Adam and the Deadly Sins.
Shazam is turning in one of my favorite villain team ups of all time. I can think of other rogues galleries that might make me lose my mind harder, but pound for pound, putting the Seven Deadly Sins, Dr. Sivana, Mr. Mind, and Black Adam on the same page is almost guaranteed to make me excited.
Dr. Sivana is pretty much my ideal mad scientist. He’s as arrogant as any other villain in comics, and when that’s done well, it’s perfection. If you peel away Sivana’s self regard, he can actually be a pretty capable villain, but his ridiculously high opinion of himself always gets in the way and leads to his defeat.
Black Adam is surprisingly one of my favorite characters in all of comics because of his versatility.
