Convergence #4 (of 8) — Writer: Jeff King; Pencils: Stephen Segovia; Inks: Seven different guys; Colors: John Starr with Peter Steigerwald The main title gets a lot more linear this issue, with an actual plot that begins to tie everything together: the Earth-2 heroes, fleeing Telos, have ended up in The Warlord’s dimension of Skartaris, where the evil wizard Deimos is trying … Continue reading

The Multiversity Guidebook #1 (of 1) — Writer: Grant Morrison; Artists: Marcus To and Paulo Siqueira; Colors: Dave McCaig and Hi-Fi This is expensive ($7.99) but also awesome — more than just a guidebook, it’s a 34-page story spotlighting the Batman: L’il Gotham characters (who turn out to be from Earth-42), plus Kamandi (Earth-51), whose story summarizes the history of alternate Earths in the DC Universe since “Flash of Two Worlds,” plus the Batman from the Atomic Knights timeline (Earth-17), plus the Legion of Sivanas and other tie-ins to the other “Multiversity” books Morrison has been producing; these all make … Continue reading
