Juggerdoom/doomernaut looks wack as fukk
Marvel released images of their Black History Month variant covers by Brazilian artist Ernanda Souza:
Looking at these it just struck me how quick Marvel was to bush Luke Cage once Bendis left the company.
Also that Storm cover looks like crap.

The boys are back! Picking up where the sensational Adventures of the Super Sons left off, the sons of Batman and Superman are back in the spotlight and ready to give evil a good spanking. But are Robin and Superboy in over their heads this time? A mysterious woman from beyond time has appeared to the DCU's favorite sons, and her arrival heralds certain doom (that's a hint, everyone) of things to come! In fact...it seems she's sent the boys on a bogus journey that they've already...returned from? Huh? What did the boys learn when they were whisked away? Why on earth do they have to save the Flash from instant death? Tune in for the first chapter in the most epic odyssey Robin and Superboy have ever been on!

Marvel seriously needs to stop spamming events.
I just read on Bleeding Cool that they had two other events in 2020 that got canceled, not to mention all the Outlawed and Empyre tie-ins they scrapped.

Rachel shows up in a lot of the X-Books as the Summers are members of basically every team and one of the most featured mutants in the main X-Men title (that is basically a bunch of one shots that build to different stuff). She's a part of X-Factor and is heavily featured there.

Picked up these omnis for about $110 total:
Annihilation
Daredevil Vol. 1 (original run)
Also copped Doomsday Clock. Was disappointed in the way they printed the trade. It’s not glossy paper, but the thicker paper material.

Brian Bendis No Longer Exclusive At DC Comics
Probably not as big a deal as the headline suggests. He's still doing Justice League and Naomi season two.
I remember reading around the time DiDio got fired that DC wasn't bothering with exclusive contracts anymore.

they could have put a little effort into making power princess not look like a literal dark wonder woman
im kina curious why they are making a bigger issue with this event than they have with the other aaron avengers stuff. its not like it all culminated to this. and having thanos in the mix makes me think this is some type of battleworlds esque story
i hope marvel doesnt take his ass back. theyre still recovering from his shytty storytelling
As someone who has not enjoyed Aaron's run on Avengers all that much I am not nearly as excited for this book as I want to be especially considering it's going to feature The Squadron Supreme who I really like.
Also I get wanting to do a mach-up of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver but who was the genius who decided she needed to be in Pietro's original green costume color scheme?
He could get away with being called Quicksilver while dressed like a leprechaun because his hair was silver and he was quick...how do you explain Wanda's being called Silver Witch while being dressed like she is? That has annoyed me ever since I read the synopsis of this event.
I originally thought they were combining Scarlet Witch with The Enchantress which made her look make sense.
How much was the Annihilation? I have the individual issues and a couple trades but I want to have it all in one place for future re-reads.
