Okay, this is not a news page, but I have to somehow emphasize the importance of some cool announcements that we have received, so…

The Manifestations of Bobby Park looks like a continuation of two main YA traditions. On the one hand, this is a completely author's character, who, if successful, can count on a place among the more familiar guys and girls in masks. This is a one-time story that you will read and put back on the shelf until better times, like any independent Vertigo comics or collections of the latest Mystery in Space format. In this case, it can be described as an "opportunity for creators." On the other hand, I see an emphasis on the action element. This is quite new to us, because if you remember Mera: Tidebreaker or even Barda, these are almost always quite calm and fixated on the feelings of the character in the story. I mean, the usual superhero format of healing trauma through battle here is more a visual addition than a real part of the narrative. Bobby Park feels like the spiritual heir of a very cool Tom Taylor experiment. Will this turn out to be a real sequel to C.O.R.T.: Children of the Round Table? We'll see very, very soon.

What do we know about Princesses of the DC Universe? I'm not familiar with Alba Glez comics as separate elements of the Marvel universe, but her style is very recognizable. She very elegantly combines pure anime with the grace of America, which gives rise to a new approach to superheroics. I would call it a Slice of a Warm Morning. Lovely! I'm not familiar with the writers, so let's talk about the characters. First of all, I like how often we started getting Natasha as the main character. Yara has great prospects to reveal herself here, because she's stuck in team-more-a-picture-than-a-person-projects. So, in fact, this is her first solo project as a stable hero. And Megan...hi, Megan! 2027, too!

The journalists got their money. Not literally, but it's definitely a trend. Since the beginning of the third season of My Adventures With Superman, almost every publication has begun to use the phrase Animated Universe in the context of a large world with long-term prospects. Of course, this may turn out to be a simple demonstration of the audience's desires floating in the air. Or even a delusion, as it was, for example, with the Tomorrowverse. But with Jess, with all the bold decisions and interesting hints in the interview, I wouldn't be surprised if we achieve this. The only question is how animation feels in general, because we haven't received anything from the giant pile of announcements from previous years. Knightfall feels like it doesn't exist for example...

DC Comics Announces Early Reader, Middle Grade Reader, and Young Adult Graphic Novels for 2027

Supergirl's: Zoo-Per Heroes: Scent of Justice is an Early Reader story by Rob Justus that takes place after the events of Supergirl's: Zoo-Per Heroes: Krypto's Big Break. The Zoo-per Heroes have escaped the zoo and zookeeper Cass. "But they know the clock is ticking on their freedom… and Supergirl is counting on their help to track down the rest of the Justice League’s enchanted laundry!

Krypto has a plan to follow the scent of magic down into the stinky underbelly of Metropolis—where every animal for miles knows the best food can be found! And who knows what secrets and mysteries lurk in the dark, as well?" (DC Comics)

"While planning her coming-of-age ceremony, she realizes she’s been so busy she doesn’t have any friends to invite! No matter: by royal decree, Yara Flor, Steel, and Miss Martian legally have to accompany Maxima to her planet! Surely, they’ll become friends during their road trip…through the stars!

But when their ship is stolen, a simple trip turns into an epic adventure! Can they get their ship back, find some socks, help Superman escape a dungeon, rescue an entire planet, and make it back to Maxima’s home world in time for her ceremony?" (DC Comics)

Green Lantern: Destiny, from Minh Lê and Andie Tong, concludes the story of Tai Pham from Middle Grade Readers Green Lantern: Legacy and Green Lantern: Alliance. Tai continues his training under John Stewart, but "Tai knows Xander Griffin was just a distraction from Sinestro’s more nefarious plans. And while the Yellow Lantern leader’s imminent arrival has the Justice League concerned, Tai can’t seem to convince them of just how helpful he could be in stopping Sinestro from taking over Earth—Tai is just a kid, after all. If only he could help prepare for what’s coming!" (DC Comics)

As if she wasn’t traumatized enough already!

How will Olive navigate her trauma as a new student? Who will she share her first kiss with? And…why are the existing fans talking so much about maps?" (DC Comics)

Gotham Academy: First Year goes on sale on March 2, 2027.

The Manifestations of Bobby Park is a Young Adult Graphic Novel from Jeremy Holt and Chong Hou that will introduce a new teen hero to the DC Comics Universe. "Sixteen-year-old Bobby Park is a devoted son, helping at his immigrant parents’ laundromat business in Central City’s Koreatown. Despite their modest income, Bobby’s genius-level aptitude for science and biology earns him a full scholarship to an elite academy, but after a racially charged attack puts his father in the hospital, his stress and anxiety manifest as painful acne that detracts from all his joy and pride. Frustrated by failed attempts to clear up his skin and tired of dissociating to tolerate his life, he takes matters into his own hands, concocting his own cure using the academy’s state-of-the-art facilities.

The trial serum is an instant success but comes at a great cost. Beyond his newly acne-free face, Bobby sees the reflection, and hears the voice, of an alter ego named Atlas Ahn; a muscled extrovert with catalog-model features—the exact opposite of how Bobby sees himself. And when an attack at the academy leaves Bobby critically wounded, Atlas convinces him to take his hand, which unwittingly unleashes a hulking monster known as Gemini." (DC Comics)

The Manifestations of Bobby Park goes on sale on April 6, 2027.

Wanda Maximoff

Avengers (2023) #6

[smashpages]

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur will return in their own ongoing series in December, but they will not be coming alone. Writer Jordan Ifueko and artist Alba Glez will introduce a new team of Inhuman kids assembled by Lunella to — get this — form a roller derby team. I didn’t know how much I needed this new title until I saw those five words.
