This year's annual'd shown her mind a bit, gone into her serving the Zanni and his need to make the world a circus.

She's been the head of Spheric Solutions, the super-weapons company militarizing Blüdhaven's police - legitimacy that's not looking so much to police commissioner Maggie Sawyer.

Sawyer and Nightwing knew her tie to recent disappearances of children. Nightwing went after Pearce for that - and for what a scheme of her brain'd done to Bryce Moran in issue #131.

She met him. )

Max, Out: INVASION #3 (JLI 28)

(Running this early because I might have some laptop issues imminent.)

The 80-page Invasion #3 has such a misleading cover that I wonder if it reflected an earlier, discarded version of the plot. AAR, the actual plot (by Keith Giffen) has enough impact on the Justice League that it deserves its own section here. Finished art (over Giffen layouts) by Bart Sears, who had a long future with this League ahead of him. Script by Bill Mantlo, whose work on the series was his only DC Comics job ever.

The war is over, but like Hiroo Onoda, the last Japanese holdout of World War II, one Dominator geneticist refuses to give up the fight.

Not that one should encourage too many comparisons between the Japanese and the yellow-skinned Dominators, who attach great importance to a red circle, are known as planners, have a pluralistic society, attacked the Southeast Indies…uh, but they also have castes and forehead dots, like Indians…Fu Manchu fingernails…you know, I’m starting to regret that I brought this up… )

Power Man is a future version of Luke Cage who is also the Sentry, and also Iron Fist, and also the Hulk. He's also a time traveler. This is all canon for the main Marvel universe.

Last issue, Power Man fought Aeon the Knife and the planet Mercury turned out to be a giant brain in a shell.

Invasion #2 wrapped up the actual alien invasion, leaving the crossover issues to deal with the aftermath and then get a surprise ending, leading into Invasion #3.

Wonder Woman begins WW #26 feeling a much greater sense of camaraderie with the Justice League International than she would ever show again, including years later when she was leading the team. It’s hilarious, but relatable, that even though the JLI would sign her on in a heartbeat, she’s like, I know it’s arrogant to think myself worthy, but what if they might maybe someday possibly consider me? If I keep my numbers up?

It’s a damn shame this era’s Max Lord never got to meet this era’s Myndi Mayer. )

The Teme runs through Ludlow.

We crossed Dinham bridge again and you can see Ludlow castle in the background:

What is Barbarian Lord? Well, there's a website that explains it perfectly cromulently, but if you want the short version, imagine Bone-style comics cartoonery illustrating an Icelandic saga. One part Carl Banks, two parts Walt Simonson. And it has an Epic Rap Battle of History.

I think technically it's called Flyting. )

Last issue, Power Man - a future version of Luke Cage who is also Iron Fist, and also The Sentry, and also The Hulk - fought some guy named Aeon the Knife, who killed some cosmic thing called the Celestial Heart.

What the heck is up with Aeon the Knife? What the heck is the Celestial Heart? Reader, you will find half the answer to one of these questions.
