honestly? It's pretty shit. There's action and the art's okay, I honestly feel like DC from the comics I read is trying the reel in some of the really really bad woke stuff.
This issue an oppressed and enslaved race(s) visits earth with their captors, of course the aliens have their illogical way of galactic domination where they challenge a champion of the planet if the champion wins they free the slaves and spare the planet if the alien oppressors enslave the planet. The slave asks superman to be their champion. Superman chews on a rifle to show he's a street tough, they has fight, Superman wins alien vaguely hints they might be reneging on the terms of the challenge. Oh, Black people were attacked while playing basketball and most affected by the initial alien attack. Pretty sure the enslaving aliens are allegory for the their twisted version of the right with a spin where instead of aliens coming to them, they go to the aliens.
Wew, having said that, I read some Batman, Action Comics, and Catwoman and they're all about on par with late 2000s early 2010s quality comics, which is like early 2000s but with forced diversity and visible quota of woke agenda checklist that leaves a taint on the comics.
I wouldn't spend money on it, I'd read the TPB for free at libraries or from a friend who still buys.
My LCS closed 2020, but it was already on its way out, the other LCS is now a LGS/merch store with a rack of comics and boxes of old comics that they raised the price on.
I regret not buying 80s and 90s comics for a dime or quarter a pop when I had the chance.
I'll admit when it comes to capitalizing color of race 50 percent of the time I do it just due to idgaf when typing, it's tricky because I always capitalize race based on origin, I only pay attention if I'm deliberately making a point not capitalizing it knowing it'll rustle jimmies.
You're mixing up nationalities with race. Other than being at the start of a sentence there's no reason to capitalise "black", unlike 'Nigerian'. Similarly there's no reason to capitalise 'white' however 'American', 'Brit', 'Scot', 'Spaniard' and the like can be.
Besides, "black" isn't even a homogenous block, even before ignoring literal blood feuds between neighbours that go back decades despite the genetic similarities being far closer than others on the same continent. Those neighbours will be closer than ever yet still hate each other far more than what social media idiots push.
Thanks for the info. I’m a life long collector but outside of indies I buy comics from 2014 or prior. You can find a lot of 80s and 90s stuff in dollar bins. Sometimes cheaper than a dollar
How is current Superman comic doing? I stopped reading modern action right before the gay son appeared
Sounds like an interesting premise

You already started the sentence, this shouldn't be capitalised.

Unfortunately for a lot of us, our grammar habits have become a racial battlefield.
So now both sides are looking for the microaggression slipup so they can virtue signal on you for upvotes.
