DC Universe Infinite New Weekly Releases 1 February, 2022

Can Jonathan Kent wear the cape that his father made famous? I’m looking to find out in Superman: Son of Karl-El #1 and so far, the story seems to be pretty good. Wonder Woman has a couple if good issues, and Atlantis is being attacked…again. It looks like a good week from DC Comics.

Anyway, here are the issues I found on DC Universe Infinite this week…

Top Release of the Week

    by Che Grayson, Rachel Smythe, Mariko Tamaki, Tillie Walden, Stephanie Williams, Corin Howell, Jamie McKelvie, and Ashley A. Woods.
    Published by DC Comics, 2021
    This new, visually stunning, and all-star-packed celebration of Wonder Woman continues! Some of comics’ greatest storytellers present five beautifully bombastic tales that take Diana all over the DC Universe. First stop…the very depths of hell! Both friend and foe come along for the ride of a lifetime with guest appearances by Steve Trevor, Nubia, and the First Born. The issue concludes with a journey to a place never seen before-Wonder Woman’s dreams-as the celebration of her 80th anniversary continues!
  • Superman: Son of Kal-El #1
    by Tom Taylor and John Timms.
    Published by DC Comics, 2021
    Jonathan Kent has experienced a lot in his young life. He’s traveled the galaxies with his Kryptonian grandfather and lived in the future with the Legion of Super-Heroes, who were intent on training him for the day his father, Clark Kent, could no longer be Superman. There is a hole in the Legion’s history that prevents Jon from knowing exactly when that will happen, but all signs point to it being very soon. It’s time for the son to wear the cape of his father and bear the symbol of hope that has told the world who Superman really is. Join writer Tom Taylor (Nightwing, DCeased) and artist John Timms (Infinite Frontier) as they usher in a whole new era for the House of El!
    Also, “Tales of Metropolis” continues. Jimmy Olsen gathers his misfit heroes, including Ambush Bug and Gangbuster, to find out who the Projectress really is and why she set her sights on Bibbo!
  • Action Comics #1033
    by Becky Cloonan, Michael Conrad, Phillip K. Johnson, Michael Avon Oeming, and Daniel Sampere.
    Published by DC Comics, 2021
    Atlantis is under attack! Taking in the Warworld refugees also means taking possession of the deadly Warworld tech they brought with them, and holding that much power makes the undersea kingdom a threat to the rest of the world. Can Superman move fast enough to prevent all-out war? Doing so may mean taking the power into his own hands…Meanwhile, some of the escaped Warworld prisoners have found the Fortress of Solitude…and along with it, Lois Lane! In our second feature, Midnighter has gone deep into the Trojan compound and found a very unexpected guest whose path he crossed in Future State-none other than Mister Miracle!
  • Harley Quinn #5
    by Stephanie Phillips and Riley Rossmo.
    Published by DC Comics, 2021
    Did I miss something, or is there another new creep in a funny costume tryin’ to take over Gotham? Villains in this city are like that multiheaded hydra monster: blow a few up in Arkham Asylum, and 50 more pop up in ridiculous costumes thinkin’ they’re worthy of one of those fancy character variant covers. And here I thought bustin’ outta Hugo Strange’s new headquarters and savin’ the clowns was gonna be my biggest problem today.
