Article Summary
Absolute PowerfromMark WaidandDan Moracontinues to rip its way through the DC Universe , the pinnacle of Amanda Waller ’s plans to deal with the superhero threat as she sees it . Bleeding Cool has been hearing our first post - San Diego Comic - Con chit chat based on what ’s coming .
Amanda Waller ’s criticism scag of unfavorable judgment of governments after 9/11 or the pandemic , using the circumstance to seize as much great power as potential to keep open hoi polloi , but in the process , exchange the balance in the world and not give that baron back . World government of Justice League ? Amanda Waller does n’t see the difference .
The irony of row is that she is becoming what she fight against , as she literally takes world power , deal over the entire USA but everyone else , as she becharm and seizes the world ’s superpowered mortal , let in China ’s Great Ten , while Queen Brainiac reach all cosmos cognition to practice against any other government as leverage to get their way .
I am told that we see one of her earliest missions with the Suicide Squad , a retelling of a story fromSuicide Squad#9 from 2016 . It mightbe worth pick up or rereading in advance .
Which saw this squad ( plus Cyclotron ) send out on a mission to defeat the God Engine , used to create god - same beings from the oecumenical populace .
Only for Cyclotron to realize that this might be an chance for theSuicide Squadto take up themselves .
Amanda Waller did n’t have brain bombs at that time of course .
But she had the next just thing .
It did n’t end well .
But aside from Cyclotron , everyone else subsist and was recruited by Maxwell Lord inJustice League vs The Suicide Squad . Yeah , that might need a reread , too .
So with the heroes hiding on Themyscira ( see upcoming Wonder Woman ) , especially from , the Queen Braniac - ed Superboy . And Big Barda is quick with her kryptonite bullet , despite what their drawing card Nightwing tell her , the scrap is come . The heroes are depowered . But just as Amanda Waller used John Starr , The Time Commander , to become back time and repair Failsafe and the Amazo Robots , might Batman be able to apply him to put everything back the elbow room it was ? Could there be some runoff ? Lois Lane is about to become the new Superwoman again after all ..
And it might also be worth rereading theGrant MorrisonandRian HughesMultiversityMap too …
