Dark Crisis SDCC Panel: What We Learned

Dark Crisis  SDCC Panel: What We Learned

Dark Crisis isn’t the real title, it’s actually Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths, issues #1-3 will be reprinted with the new title after the title change officially happens in #4. While JW originally said that this wouldn’t be a reboot it certainly smells like a reboot. Pariah wins and is remaking the Infinite Earths, which will have huge affects on the rest of the dc universe, and they are redoing the Krona origin for the multiverse. They also have plans to “expand the dc universe”… so even if there isn’t a reboot there will be so many retcons it will pretty much be a reboot.

Young Justice is no longer the next-generation of heroes, it sounds like a lot of the current teams and characters will get pushed aside. If your favorite character is a legacy hero… good luck my friends.

Barry and Hal will team up in #4 to bring the JL back, they will officially return in #5

Nekron’s black lantern corps will return in #3, there will also be mentions of the GL’s rings and the Great Darkness that will be explored in Dark Crisis: The Deadly Green

the deadly green will feature Alan Scott as well as Jon Kent, Jon’s not all that comfortable with magic but he uses his powers to combine with Swamp Thing???

Dark Crisis: The Dark Army will feature Damian, who goes out on his own secret mission and tries to steal the Dark Army away from Pariah because “he’s cocky” and it will tie into Batman v Robin, Dr. Light, Red Canary, Power Girl, and Sideways will go with him. it will be crucial to the plot of dark crisis overall. 

Dark Crisis: War Zone will be the street-level perspective of the whole crisis event through the eyes of Iris and Linda, it will feature some big connection between them  it also reveals 5 stories & tie-ins from the 6th issue which is supposed to be emotional

I Am Batman #15 will feature a street fight between Jace and Sinestro

YJ #5 will feature the son of a major villain, they won’t reveal who it is until issue #4, Meg also teased that there will be a lot of emotional conversations in the upcoming YJ stuff **it looks like Bernard is on the cover

We learned Tom King doesn’t know the definition of fascism cuz he said this about Superman’s one-shot 

Beast Boy was shot purely for shock value cuz they had no plans to kill him off

TL;DR prepare for a lot of retcons, this is going to be a mess. best of luck to everyone, especially those whose favorite characters are legacy characters.

Night Culture au, Duke Thomas aka The Signal

Knight of Day

“I serve no kingdom, divine nor human. I’m guardian to those who need my light.”

A guardian of daylight, some say that the Signal mimics the likeliness of man so it doesn’t scare victims. Others say it’s only to lower the guard of its prey. With the ability to carry light and dark in its hands, the Signal is a new creature that haunts the streets of Gotham.

Day is no longer sanctuary to criminals

Yay so happy to finally designs Duke!! His Robin design draws a bit from nightwing so I had to wait :)))

He’s half human and half seraphim!
