In this week's New Avengers, anyone have any guesses why Hawkeye gets taken down by the power drainer?

It's clearly not just Bendis continually f*cking with Clint- he has Mockingbird specifically wonder why Clint goes down but she doesn't, so he knows that something is up. He even gives a more or less adequate reason for Bucky being taken down by it (is arm is freaking out)...

So, what do you think the deal is with Clint?


I was wondering the same. Did they show his face recently in prior to the event, did he talk either to mocking bird? It could be echo, or maybe it has something to do with wanda bringing him back or something.

Does anyone have a list of DC characters who have gone beyond the Source Wall, and into the Source itself?

lucifer
swamp thing
metron
darkseid
highfather
yuga khan
martian manhunter
mxy
spectre
barry allen
superman

lucifer's breaching of the wall was the most impressive out of those listed [followed by mxy's.]

I thought Yuga was stuck to the wall?

he was. i just listed any characters i could think of who actually made it into the source - and yuga was one of them.

See you went back to the old sourcewall sig 313

you remembered.. bashful

Source wall sig, destiny avatar, error location.

A comment about the existence of man? mmm

very impressive. 👆

WOW!! According to Wiki, there has only been 5 people who have ever gone beyond the Wall. Not 11. Lol.

Are you sure all of those peeps have ventured into the Source, or are you just guessing? 😛

I can actually confirm that Metron and Swamp Thing did not go to the Source in that comic, I read it and at the end Darkseid revealed that what they really visited was a dimensional point called an Aleph where the entire universe could be viewed at once, it was not the Source.

to get to the aleph you must apparently venture through the source itself [confirmed in the lucifer scan i posted.]

Lucifer is doing the same thing.

the stone looking figure is lucifer's perception of the source. lucifer ignored that figure because he merely wanted the aleph's vantage point, in order to find michael - a vantage point he could apparently only reach by entering the source.

Outstanding! Thanks a million! 😄

But I'm pretty sure Darkseid said that they didn't actually reach the Source.

he did. however, i'm talking about the more recent evidence [lucifer] which tells us that in order to get to the aleph, one must travel into the source.

"Superman once walked over the wall and had tea with the Mad_Hatter on the other side. Ted Kord was known to throw wild parties there and Booster Gold went beyond the source wall in order to defeat Thanos with the Infinity_Gauntlet."

Wikipedia quality check, it's taking 5.
