Mark Waid and Dan Mora’s Absolute Power continues to make its way through the DC Universe, the culmination of Amanda Waller’s plan.
Absolute power out of Mark Waid And Daniel Mora continues to make its way through the DC Universe, the culmination of Amanda Waller’s plans to deal with the superhero threat as she sees it. Bleeding Cool has heard our first post-San Diego Comic-Con gossip about what’s to come.
Amanda Waller’s criticism is reminiscent of the criticism of governments after 9/11 or the pandemic, which took advantage of the circumstances to seize as much power as possible and save people, but in doing so changed the balance in the world and did not give that power back. World government or Justice League? Amanda Waller does not see the difference.
The irony, of course, is that she becomes the very thing she is fighting against, as she literally seizes world power, taking over not only the entire United States, but everyone else as well, capturing and kidnapping the world’s superpowers, including China’s Big Ten, while Queen Brainiac acquires all the world’s knowledge and uses it as leverage against every other government to get her way.
I was told that we will see one of her first missions with the Suicide Squad, a retelling of a story from Suicide Squad #9 of 2016. It could It is worth picking it up in advance or reading it again.
This team (plus Cyclotron) was then sent on a mission to defeat the God Engine, which is used to create god-like beings from the general population.
Only for Cyclotron to realize that this is an opportunity for the Suicide Squad to go.
Of course, Amanda Waller didn’t have any brain bombs back then.
But she had the next best thing.
It didn’t end well.
But apart from Cyclotron, all the others survived and were recruited by Maxwell Lord in Justice League vs. The Suicide Squad. Yes, this may need to be read again.
So the heroes are hiding on Themyscira (see the upcoming Wonder Woman), especially from Superboy, created by Queen Braniac. And Big Barda is ready with her kryptonite ball, even though their leader Nightwing tells her that battle is imminent. The heroes are depowered. But just as Amanda Waller used John Starr, the Time Commander, to turn back time and fix Failsafe and the Amazo robots, maybe Batman could use him to put everything back the way it was? Could there be a spillover? Lois Lane will become the new Superwoman again after all.
And it might also be worth it to Grant Morrison And Rian Hughes Multiversity Map also…
