Miles' tenth anniversary is in September, and... {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}...He's getting a new costume {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Here's another look at it from a Ms. Marvel variant cover: {Spoiler}I think that costume’s just the Homemade suit from Miles’s PS4/PS5 game. There’s a bunch of cover variants with Miles wearing his costumes from the game.

Didn’t realize Tom Taylor is writing Dark Ages for Marvel.
I went from “Eh, I’ll see it from a glance” to “I might actually check it out”.

Grant Morrison talks a bit about Superman and The Authority www.cbr.com/superman-and-the-authority-grant-morrison-interview/It initially began when Morrison was pitched the idea of an authoritarian Superman, he resisted the idea, not being a fan of a dictator Supes, when Didio was fired, Morrison and Phillip Kenendy Johnson got in touch and reworked the series to fit into PKJ's plans for the Superman books, with Morrison taking an alternate approach to the concept that thematically served Superman better. The series starts in the 60s, and follows Supes debating to himself just why the New Frontier notion for America prevalent in the Kennedy years didn't work Following completion of Superman and the Authority, Morrison will finally be taking a leave of absence from DC to focus on his television and film career. www.gamesradar.com/grant-morrison-taking-a-break-from-dc-after-superman-and-the-authority/

Giant Size Amazing Spider-Man: Chameleon Conspiracy {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Ah so the big reveal about Teresa is multiple choice, she could be a Chameleon, her parents may be Chameleon agents, Chameleon may have been Nick Fury at some point and duped her into thinking she was a Parker...it's all a little vague, but in the end it's another "it's what you are now that matters" hallmark life lesson. Aw, that's sweet, I HATE SWEET, I NEED PHOTOS, PHOTOS OF SPIDER-MAN
In the meantime, Peter saves Jaime and successfully makes an emergency landing before the casino ship can smash into the city, It turns out most of the villains on the Casino airship are all Chameleon agents, Peter seems to buy that Ned is legit and lets him go home to Betty, but not before we see Ned grin rather mischievously
Kindred is tied to The Chameleon, and requires something from him...a serum, Chameleon says it's always good to do business with an 'Osborn'
Doc Ock and Electro journey to the savage land and recruit Kraven

So I completely forgot Crossover #7 is out so read that and… {Spoiler} Key thing is…this issue is written by Chip Zdarsky and it’s about…Chip Zdarsky being on the run from the person who is going after comic book creators. At the same time, he meets up with the comic version of himself who is trying to save him from this fate and, after meeting him on the road and getting into a car crash, sacrificed himself to let the real Chip get away.
And he tells this story to…Christian Walker and Deena Pilgrim, the two main protagonists of Powers, essentially re-debuting at Image. This book is kind of nuts and I love it.

My good (real life) friend's latest video tackles the anti-diversity crowd who constantly bellyache about diversity in comic books. If so inclined, give him a watch, thanks -

Jordan White confirms Marvel have largely abandoned Hickman's vision for the X-Books and are just playing in the sandbox with what he set up, and that they're not building to anything with a definitive middle or final act. Hickman had ideas, but they all changed while co-ordinating with the other talents. aiptcomics.com/2021/06/28/x-men-monday-113-hellfire-gala-week-4/

Exactly. Feels like they get the guy in to do these big universe-changing things and decide to not stick the landing. (And yes, I know Secret Wars was likely because of what happened with the New 52 at DC but considering it basically changed barely anything, I'm counting it)

Double dose of DCAU on stands today Justice League Inifnity#1 (continuation of DCAU Justice League) {Spoiler}Amazo travels towards a door in the heart of Najarran space, he enters it to find a cosmic fracture. In another part of the world back home, New Delli, we find Martian Manhunter has long since left the team to try and understand humans better
Meanwhile, at Metro Tower, It's Wally's birthday and the League throw him a surprise party. Batman isn't so cheerful, Diana teases him about it, still interested in him romantically. Speaking of awkward romances, John is still seeing Vixen and he sees she's having a chat with Hawkgirl. Shayera is discussing a recent meditative trip to Themyscria, but John thinks they're comparing notes on him, this annoys Shayera and she tells him off, but we find she is still deeply hurt and conflicted over her emotions from their break-up.
Suddenly, a boom tube forms and Granny Goodness and her hoards attack. The League fend them off and with Mister Miracles' help, send them packing. Clark, as Superman, is still dating Lois and tells her about the adventure, but is suddenly swapped out with Ultra Man, who demands to know what Lois has done to him Batman: The Adventures Continue Season Two#2 {Spoiler}Deadman possesses Alfred and gives Dick a hug. The cover of the issue also lies, as Dick never fights Talon in the entire issue, and Babs is mentioned but not seen. Turns out the leader of the court of owls is a revitalized Mayor Hill, who faked his death. He kidnaps his son and reveals the truth about a powerful journal to him, but Junior isn't sure his dad is doing the right thing. Batman and Deadman intervene and in the ensuing battle, the Owls' lair is destroyed. Junior, wanting his father's position, dares not reveal the truth to the police for it will disgrace his family

Funny thing happened today... picked up my monthly comic order at the post office, and mixed in with my order and my copy of Diamond Previews (with the Marvel booklet) was a copy of DC Connect #14.
I thought they went to just digital for the order booklets?
I don't follow industry news sites and the only place I get anything resembling news is here... can someone tell me why they're making the books again? Did physical copy sales tank so badly that they're trying to fix it?

Amazing Spider-Man#70 {Spoiler}Lizard and Curt are split in two by Octavius, Peter tries to track down Ock and his crew but has no luck. He suspects Kindred's hand in this
Mary Jane continues her investigation into Carlie's disappearance. She talks to Jarvis at Avengers Mansion as well as Carlie's friends and landlord, so far she's found no trace of her.
Carlie in the meantime is having a chat with BND era Harry, he says he went to Europe to investigate some transactions coming from dormant Oscorp accounts, Harry's investigation leads him to one of his dad's 'real estate holdings with a troubled history all it's own', and it looks very much like the building Sarah and Gabe from Sins Past were raised in!
Arriving there, Harry is captured by Kindred. He's been a prisoner for months.
The body Carlie identified in the morgue was Harry Osborn...so who is the person she's talking to right now? She decides to keep this to herself for now
Boomerang returns as Overdrive recruits him and his fellow Lethal Foes at the Bar with no name
All of the factions of Spencer's run are being steadily assembled, the time is approaching for a more 'sinister' truth to be revealed
Kindred unveils the sixth member of Ock's team: Mysterio Immortal Hulk in a nutshell this week {Spoiler}"Um, Betty, I love you, I'm trying to be a good person, BTW I left the love of your life in hell, do you think I'm a good person now? Betty? You still there? Oh, might as well get Bruce back then"
