52 discussion

Since no one is posting scans of 52, I'll put up some (abridged) spoilers for the past few weeks, in case anyone cares.

*JINKIES! SPOILERS, I SAY!*

WEEK 25

-Bruno Manheim of Intergang has named himself the 'Apostle of Crime' and killed off many of the rival Gotham City crime lords in order to take control of the city
-Mary Marvel and Marvel Jr. protect some trick-or-treaters from a gigantic demon on Halloween night. The Black Marvel family swoops in and KO's the demon, then carry it away. Marvel Jr. says he wants to find out more about Black Adam Jr.(Osiris)
-In Hell, Fate's helmet shows Ralph the imprisoned soul of Felix Faust, and tells about how Faust wasted away his own soul through repeated deals for power. After Ralph & Fate leave, Faust's soul dissolves into dust.
-In NYC, Infinity Inc. stops a robbery and shows off their newest member: a hot red-head called Matrix (who might have been an actress at one time)
-Nearby, GL Alan Scott meets with Mr. Terrific about joining Checkmate to monitor the corrupt forces in the world (such as Lex Luthor)
-On Oolong Island, Dr. Magnus tells Dr. Morrow that he refuses to build any crazy robots. Chang Tzu (Egg Fu?) meets Manheim and offers to give him a new weapon: The Four Horsemen!
-Secret Origin: Nightwing

WEEK 26

-Black Adam & Isis drop Question & Renee off at Nanda Parbat in the Himalayas. Renee meets Dr. Tot and starts training with Richard Dragon.
-Steel and Natasha argue about Luthor on the pundit show YOU ARE WRONG!, hosted by Jack Ryder (The Creeper)
-Dr. Sivana's ugly kids build a time machine and see Waverider about one week in the future. Mrs. Sivana invites the Black Adam family over for dinner and asks them to help her find her missing husband. Osiris leaves in a huff because he has no friends (aww...)
-A female scientist shows up on Oolong Island to get the other scientists to hurry up on the Four Horsemen project. Dr. Magnus is the only one who is indifferent toward her.
-A big crocodile-man crashes the Sivana dinner, and flees the house. He meets Osiris outside and tells the kid that he was one of Dr. Sivana's experiments, and that he has no friends and no name. Osiris asks if he would like one (aww...)
-Secret Origin: Hawkman & Hawkgirl

WEEK 27

-Ralph & Fate's helmet meet the Spectre out in space. He shows them Eclipso/Jean Loring and offers to bring back Sue if Ralph agrees to punish Jean. Ralph gets some of Spectre's powers temporarily and teleports out with Jean.
-Waverider is hiding scared in a clock store. Time Commander shows up and dies, but yells that Waverider and Rip Hunter tricked him and other time stealers into joining them for some reason. Skeets shows up and demands to know where Rip is. Waverider refuses to say and is killed. All this happens during a single second at 5:25:20 am.
-Question tells Renee that he's dying of lung cancer. Renee throws away her remaining smokes. Tot shows them a page of Intergang's crime bible, which has a prophecy of Batwoman dying in about two weeks.
-Ralph & Jean show up at his house on the night that Sue died. He makes them go 'ghost', and restores Jean's mind to sanity so she can witness the horror of the murder. Ralph says he plans to seal her in a time loop so that she can witness Sue's death for all eternity. At the last moment, however, he screams and relents, and they poof back to outer space with the Spectre. Ralph learns that the Spectre was tricking him all along, but at least he learns that Sue can be brought back. He tells Fate to take him to Nanda Parbat.
-Secret Origin: Black Canary

I'll put up week 28 once I read it.

I miss the old days of entire issues being scanned.

Yep... those were the days, eh?

Its funny because no one in the industry gives a **** if she's a lesbian, but everyone else made such a big deal about it 🤣

Yeah, it isn't anything worth getting excited over. So Batwoman is a lesbian...ok...either do something with her besides that, or kill her already. Stop wasting my time lol. Make Supernova kill her so we can get an issue with him, since we haven't for a while.

Uh guys, I am new I know but I looked around and there are the scans of the comics here, bot now you all stopped. I prefer D.C and can't get my hand on comics due to private reason. Can someone put them on here again please ?? It isn't fair to put teasers like that.

How about 52 turns out to be an alternative universe where Black Adam becomes God... then Batman and Wolverine appear through a wormhole and get pimpsmacked by Adam and The Midnighter's awesome anti-fanboy bad ass powers. THEN, EVil Knevil and Chuck Norris fight over New York City and MR T calls them "phoos" so they spontaneously combust. This causes a time paradox, a mysterious alternative Superman appears and bucthers everyone in sight, then he joins forces with an alternative universe Stilt Man and the duo set out to rewrite time. However, Wolverine's fanboy aura resurrects him and he uses his previously unrevealed power to rewrite time and all that crap and undoes the bad guys' work... and a retarded year-long weekly thing with shit storylines and whiney comedy kids starts anew...

*WEEK 28 Spoilers*

-Question & Renee are back in Gotham, and they use a hand-held bat-signal to summon the Batwoman. She dismisses them in a huff, but they show her the prophecy of her death from Intergang's crime bible.
-A bunch of Australian Aborigines are about to lose their settlement to a Nuclear Mining corporation called Ridge-Ferrick. The Aborigine mechanic uses the makeshift android (with Red Tornado's head) to fight off the corporate thugs. Red Tornado continuously shouts '52' through this entire scene. The android then starts to summon up a huge tornado, and one of the other Aborigines uses a sledgehammer to knock off the head before any serious damage can be done. The Aborigine mechanic is arrested. Red Tornado is torn apart and sold to a scrap metal company (including his head).
-Lobo & the space trio dodge attacks by the Emerald Head of Ekron
-Batwoman beats up some Intergang goons, but is zapped and captured by Bruno Manheim, who starts to throttle her. Question & Renee pop out of hiding and Renee points her laser gun at the crimelord. Now pay attention here, Bruno says the following: "The Questions... no, you CAN'T be here, not YET... the Questions have not yet been ANSWERED!" Bruno then flees the scene.
-The space trio land on a big space skeleton and plan to set traps for the Emerald Head. Before they can start, however, the head shows up and starts blasting them. Starfire shoots back, and the Head suddenly stops fighting and they can hear a voice coming from within. On close inspection, they see that the head is actually a ship of some kind, and that the cockpit is marked with the Green Lantern insignia. The creature inside the head mumbles that it was the Lantern of Vengar until 'she came... the destroying flame' and that 'the Stygian Passover has begun'. The trio realize that Lobo stole the Emerald Eye, which left the Lantern unable to adequately protect his sector from the mysterious new threat. Adam Strange has a hissy-fit and tosses his helmet. Buddy goes to retrieve it, but then sees a big energy portal forming in the distance.
-Next week: scenes that show a woman fighting some kind of shadow creature, Chang Tzu/Egg Fu looking angry, and GL Alan Scott flying above Infinity Inc.
-Secret Origin: Catman. Catman?! What the heck?

Then don't read the teasars *shrugs*, but if you personally can't buy them trying downloading them via torrent.

Slight spoiler & speculation for Week 32:

Does anyone else suspect that the voice of Fate's helmet is really Felix Faust in some way? Firstly, we saw Faust's soul statue dissolve in Hell several weeks ago, which may mean that he wasn't really there or that he'd escaped. Ralph mentioned Boston Brand at the beginning of this week's issue, and Fate didn't seem to really know who Brand was. I'm thinking that this is where Faust got the idea to disguise himself as Deadman in the new Justice League of America series.

Buddy noooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

atleast Starfires stil alive droolio

Is it true that they're doing an issue about the Joker's origin??

Heh, I didn't even suspect that 😬

Good guess though ✅

Some clever poster at Newsarama figured out the meaning of 52, by solving Didio's puzzle he had left for readers in his DC Nation column.
