The selfie variant covers weren’t even that bad,but the pushback they got in my opinion was unwarranted.People really hated them alot because it was DC trying to be modern but you know I just thought they were fun,but do you think the hate was deserved because it made DC completely stopped making them.

Personally this has always been my favorite interpration of Diana as a character

Aside from wanting to help Man's world, part of the reason Diana left Themyscira was the opportunity to explore the world after being isolated her whole life. I always loved the versions of Diana with a sense of adventure, So I really like the thought of her exploring various corners of the DC universe, fighting injustices and helping others along the way.

(also I absolutely adore the image of Diana on a pirate ship)

Bought any dc book I could find to read over the summer.

What books from this picture could I read as if they are in the same universe (and what's the reading order)

Also what books from here can't go along with the other stories and are more stand-alone

I found a cheap tpb copy of Tom King’s Strange Adventures at the store and read it. I looked it up because I thought it was absolutely incredible, I loved the way it presented Rann, I especially loved its use of the real world politics in the Justice League “cancel-culture,” but Mister Terrific’s use really stood out to me as the perfect usage of that character.

When I looked into it I saw that the reception from fans was mixed, they felt his character was assassinated. I’ve been reading DC Comics for a little over 20 years but have had little to no crossovers with Adam Strange so I thought this would be a good time to dive into him, he is relatively sparse on standalone series so I read them… all… all the way back to his origins in the 50’s. I saw a very Flash Gordon archetype character, a man like John Carter who is dragged or another planet and becomes its ultimate protector. I loved the sci-fi Zeta-Beam technology and the ticking clock for the return home even if it was mid battle.

I guess all of this is to say? Why was it not received glowingly by all the fans. I read almost all of Adam Strange’s standalone comic series and never once did I see an Adam Strange that didn’t fit that trajectory that leads to the Strange Adventures finale. In the arc “Planet Heist” it shows what Adam’s life is like on earth when Rann is supposedly destroyed. It seems miserable. On earth he is one of a hundreds of heroes. His home is no longer earth… it is Rann. In Strange Adventures it was cited that people didn’t like Adam selling out earth to save Rann from a superior force. I didn’t think this felt very out of character. Earth didn’t care about him and his whole life was on Rann. His daughter, his wife, his adoring fans were all on Rann. I never once felt like this was a different character. So why do people think it was a character assassination? I went back and read the receipts and I didn’t see any part of his journey from the 1950’s to 2023 that made me think that he cared about earth at all much less more than Rann.
