Death of the New Gods #1

Or, "Oh Fuck, Oh Fuck, Oh Fuck, Oh Fuck." At least on this end.

Apparently Metron's pipe will be his undoing as he witnesses the predictable chaos coming. But that's not what this post is about.

This went as could be expected.

I scanned the last two pages, and I... well, yeah. I saw this coming when I saw what they're going to do with Scott later.

I suppose I should mention this is a spoiler for a book that just came out this morning.

( Someone dies behind the cut. )

I'm not really sure how to react, honestly.

This one time Barda died...

We go back in time to Mister Miracle Volume 3, in which Granny Goodness finally kills Barda for the Black Racer, and Scott accepts his godly powers to bring her back... only to ultimately free himself of them again. Mostly.

Because off-panel deaths are not befitting of warriors. At the statement "The man never bothered to seek out a God power," well that's just wrong, Mr. Darkseid. And you know it firsthand.

( Scott denies his Godhood. It goes south from there. )

Of course, it's a Mister Miracle comic, so there's bondage involved. Only... well, it's heavier bondage than usual. Involving the Source.

( The door or the trap. )

He finally accepts his Godhood, and uses it to go to Hadis and confront the Black Racer. Who tells him to build and army and what-not to get Barda back. Which leads to a huge zombie fight.

Barda makes a cool zombie. And there's a little problem; Barda zombie just loves the endless battle of death too much. But Scott gets her back, anyway. Being a God. The Black Racer is pissed.

( You want me to use my power? )

But let's end this on a better note, shall we?

A note like say...



...Barda and Diana sparring to an Amazon audience, perhaps?

That took up most of Mister Miracle #6. Good times.
