Grant tries to one-up the Animal Man scene, the last page of the physical comic is a reflective surface showing you as the monster.

I could've sworn I read something about the reader being the hero in the Ultra Comics issue so maybe we're supposed to set it on fire

d00gZ posted:rrf http://comicsalliance.com/multiversity-annotations-part-3-morrison-ben-oliver-just-dc-comics/ Since you said you didn't know what why Superboy was hacking up dust, I guess I'll just say that it brought to mind that just recently the evil Superman in the current Earth 2 series was revealed to be their Bizarro and he dissolved into dust. Of course, this probably doesn't mean anything in the context of Multiversity, since Morrison's all about callbacks to older stuff (plus I don't know how far back he writes these vs. when the art is done), so I doubt he'd be referencing something that happened just a couple of months ago.

Pretty sure the Kon-El clone, Match, got all white cracked Bizarro-y as well. Guess we can assume that K-cells shrivel up as cellular decay leaves them unable to process solar energy, making them flake off as new cells

poo poo brought up that made me feel dumb after I posted the annotations: 1. The name of the lady he sneezes on is Vapor, and he says "inhale" because he sneezed and is a Bizarro. Duh, I'm dumb. 2. The gun Damian holds is the Hyper-Poon from All Star Superman #6 that the 5th dimensional Superman was rocking.

So is this some sort of Multiversity offshoot or side effect? Because it looks like involves alternate timelines and such. DC's 2015 Event Will Preempt All Regular Comics For Two Full Months quote:The alien supervillain Brainiac has trapped cities from various timelines and planets that have ended, brought them in domes to a planet outside of time and space, and is now opening them for a great experiment to see what happens when all these folks meet. ...

It's spun out of Superman Doomed and Fututres End. Not related to Multiversity except for involving stuff like Red Son characters, which are on Grant's map. Expect contradictions to the Multiversity guidebook if anything. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Nov 12, 2014 |

Senor Candle posted:What? I didn't think it was spinning out of anything. Just two months of filler so people can move. Yeah. That's why it's happening but it's had a little set up. Superman Doomed ended with Spoiler... Braniac sucking out the brain energy of everybody on the planet and Superman whacking him into a black hole where on the last page he ended up here  and a future big monster Braniac is talking about collecting multiple versions of people in Futures End. Check out the pink areas in these covers:

That's interesting, I was expecting it to be this as well, considering that when Final Crisis was announced, it was pretty clear that DC looked and went "there's not enough money in this... let's COUNT DOWN TO IT." It wouldn't surprise me in the least if they tried to tangle up some bits of Multiversity in it, but apparently it is just straight out of the Doomed and Futures End stories.

For some reason, Jim Lee is drawing the Earth-10/Freedom Fighters issue. http://uproxx.com/gammasquad/2014/11/exclusive-see-whats-next-for-grant-morrisons-multiversity/

ASBAR is probably the most interest Lee had ever been (Miller tends to bring that out of some artists), but the early Justice League stuff, what I saw of Superman Off the Chain, and this are all super bad.

I don't really know much about Lee, but it sucks he seems to have a bad rep. I really love the Freedom Fighters so I've been having high hopes for that issue.

That looks like Lee trying to be Michael Turner, of all artists. But yeah, I hope the issue's been in the can for awhile. Maybe the series took so long to come out because of it!

That cover looks like something from a smaller comics studio. The type where everything looks brash inside and the back half of the book is just ads for other series in the line.

The similarity with a moderately popular nazi supermen comic is probably purely coincidential  Doug Mahnke would have killed on that Multiversity issue.
