What a disappointing mess. Ivy was beaten by pointing a gun at her still human heart. And Batman in the end shot her anyway because fuck her i presume. What he expected by that? Snapping last straw between her humanity and godhood? And Bruce got not one but two pep-talks with Gordon and got nothing from them

I understand that Bruce is a deeply broken man at this point going through a couple months of constant mental and physical torture, but this twist from being Batman that is willing to go with more blood than usual to an edge-lord’s view of trigger happy Batman is just idiotic. Snyder has truly messed this moment up and this constant switching from scene to scene gets more jarring with each issue.

At least Ivy’s origin is properly tragic. And most importantly she cannot be redeemed into a hero on a whim due to her obsession with evolution

P.S. Oh no Martha is dead. Who expected it. She is definitely died off-screen and this Tallon definitely shot at her… Come on Scott, this is just bad manners at this point. This trope doesn’t work if you use it as a cliffhanger

Absolute Superman #15-17 — "The never-ending begins" (2025-2026)

Proper status quo Absoulute Superman was pretty good. This small arc continues breadcrumb trail from the Absolute Evil. Hawkman sucks in the best way possible. Clarks daily life is fascinating and shows that realistic and gritty Superman still can and should be a kind person. Parasite given me some long needed dose of body-horror. And Absolute Lex Luthor is a kindest and chillest family guy ever. Untill Brainiac comes to his home

And this part was truly painful to watch. Especially the reveal page on which Lex just sits alone in the aftermath of the massacre that Brainiac done for some idiotic reason. The only thing the open brain accomplished by that was gaining the enemy potentially far worse than any kryptonian

Tropelet Annataz ot ytefas.

As i predicted Absolute Zathana is not evil. She was mindcontrolled by a starfish living in her throat. On literally third page she had coughed it out and ran away

Also this issue had a fight between two giant women :)

And as you could’ve concluded the Suicide Squad that was built up in past issue turned out to be a bunch of incompetent villains. Which was expected honestly. Half of the squad either were gone in first 8 pages or got beaten up by their allies. Cheetah for example was useless and got unceremoniously killed off to introduce Zee’s <evil/chaotic/uncontrollable> ghost dad

The main event of this issue was a fight with Giganta for which, as i already said, Diana had used magic to grow a couple dozen times and give evil giantess an uppercut and subdue her by strangling. It was sick!

The main question for me is mostly how Cale still gets all that government money if she cannot control competent part of her crew and how incompetent does it’s job so badly that i feel shame they should feel? Absolute Universe had set evil triumphing as law of nature, but Diana got problems of same stakes as average season finale of My Little Pony

Which is not really bad, but looking at what Bruce and Clark are currently going through you’ll definitely see how much demiurge of this world really plays favorites with the Last Amazon

Absolute Batman #17

In this episode of “Life and torture of Bruce Wayne” we finally have long awaited debut of Poison Ivy. And damn she is fabulous, especially in her true form

This issue has three plots run simultaneously. First is Bruce’s daily life going to hell. Second is Ivy’s origin full of delightful deranged philosophy. And third happens in current time with Ivy taking over the center of Gotham and corrupting it with her idea of “the Seventh Kingdom of Life”

I fell in love with this Ivy because she definitely, without any small print of goodness saying that she is right: delusional in her conquest. Absolute Poison Ivy is no longer an eco-terrorist with good point and horrible execution, she is no longer anything resembling a human being. She became something more in her own eyes and she wants to let this more to sprout and grow throughout humanity. She is a fascinating monster with minimum requirement in origin to still be sympathetic and tragic in her own right

So it would be very fun to see what circle of hell Ivy will make Batman go through and what irreversible damage will be done on poor poor Bruce this time

Absolute Wonder Woman Annual

Honestly out of the annual issue i expected more. Of course it was good to see how much compassion Diana is holding and how she was impacted by her temporary transformation into Medusa. And it was good to see her try to fix real Medusa’s curse after feeling how torturous this form was. But it could’ve been done better

Especially in a way they incorporated Athena. It is truly a great fumble to not give Athena a real true bad action and pretend that she hadn’t cursed Medusa and it was just misinterpretation and lies. She is a greek goddess for Pete’s sake, gods cursing people on whim is kinda the main thing of greek myphos

But the moment then Diana looks Medusa in her eyes and Medusa cries from finally seeing somebody’s living face after thousands of years of her torturous existence. I almost had cried by myself.

ABSOLUTE ZATANNA IS HERE!!! For whole 3 pages

AND NOW SHE IS A BAD GIRL!!! In a Suicide Squad and her own book was announced. So most likely she is not really evil

AND SHE’S HOT! Which is true

And that is why you should never trust comic book marketing.

Well it was actually expected. It is a first issue of a new arc. So it’s point was to introduse the scenery in which the fight will happen. Also it introduses Aphrodite, who is depicted wearing a classic halloween sheet ghost costume that was soaked during Wet T-Shirt contest. Which is oddly fitting for a goddess of beauty

Also Steve Travor is finally a character. He gives a great speech on a senate hearing about him resigning from the army because US army cannot handle supernatural events that been happening during the events of the book.

Meanwhile Veronica Cale plans to commit act of domestic terrorism using Suicide Squad. Which in this version is consisting of Wondie’s classic enemies and Zatanna. And Zee got and upper hand.

To be continued… I’ll be waiting for next issue, book still works well

Never stand behind a centaur!

As you could’ve guessed i don’t realy like crossovers with Batman, i think that Bats is the parasite on any of this crossovers, he always becomes the center of attention, even if he dies he still lives. THAT HAPPENED TWICE!!

But i like Absolute Batman quite much, because unlike his mainline counterpart, Batbuilder has something odd that people call — conciquences.

And this issue is about him dealing with conciquences of getting his closest friends into his vigilante buisness, about him dealing with trauma.

And most importantly, getting kicked by a centaur :)

A long awaited 2 issue crossover arc of Batbrick and Wonder Woman.

And it’s first part feels quite inconciquential. It is nothing but a setup for an interesting part, the part that DC by their tradition given out to Batman…

>:(
