Man, DC really needed some cosmic/supernatural overbeing.
We've hardly had more than two dozen over the last few years.

is that Fate's symbol?
Cameron Nelson
Julian Garcia
Yes.
Gabriel Sanchez
That symbol was popularized a few thousand years before DC comics started using it.

Uninspired design-check
Uninspired origin-check
Uninspired dialogue-check
Good thing this is just going to be another forgettable Fate villain. "Spirit of the Lords of Chaos" pffft.
I'll assume Superman is in this so that a few readers might care, and so Clark can job hard to it for villain cred.

That's all. Hope you enjoyed this book.

>Bendis still on Superman
MAKE IT STOP
Nathaniel Ross
You plan on storytiming anything good this morning or just dumping every major DC book?
Isaac Edwards
Does Green lantern counts?
Nicholas Martin
I normally really love Maguire's art but it feels really out of place here. The silly Bendis dialoge making light of Sam Lane dying makes it all the more jarring.
Zachary Myers
This entire conversation feels like Bendis trying to justify the crap he wrote.
Blake Watson
Kevin Maguire used to be great
Then he bought Manga Studio
Many such cases
Ayden Green
Sounds like your typical Bendis villain.
Matthew Roberts
Yeah, not feeling it either. I guess he's trying to make a boring script seem interesting by making the facial expressions a bit extreme, but it doesn't work that well.
Gavin Gutierrez
Is that what it is? Looking at this awful art, I thought he just had a stroke or something.
William Bell
Everyone's just sorta mugging for no reason. His art is great otherwise. It's just kinda wasted here. Superman getting half-assedly butthurt about something he should be way shittier about is just lame.
It just feels phoned in on both of their parts. Dialogue is typical Bendis and the expressions seem like a parody of Maguire's usual work.
Josiah Ortiz
There’s a sort of desperation here from a greedy fuck like Bendis. No one is going to use this guy
Sebastian Powell
I thought DEO was destroyed by Leviathan?
Angel White
>CHADS
Jaxson Johnson
>He actually acknowledges Russel's Wonder Twins
Alright Bendis, Im listening.
Camden Clark
>Ted Kord
Isnt he filling the evil white businessman role in Suicide Squad right now?
Jackson Williams
Shit like this is kinda crazy to see in real time. People will look back on this material the same way we look back at media material from WW2.
Michael Green
>Bendis writing MAI NIGGGA Fate
At least the lord of chaos is shittalking khalid
