Wednesday Comics #6 - DC

Well, it's another edition of Wednesday Comics. Lets see how we stand on all of our various stories here. Batman goes to confront Hardy Stone . . our supposed killer. It's interesting though as he looks like a gang-member, but he's sitting in his house listening to Opera. Kamandi and the girl break free of the apes' bonds, but it may not be enough. They find Dr Canus still alive, after the crash, but Tuftan is still on his way back to ape city. Which, I assume is their next destination. Clark is enjoying a morning of sleeping in . . in Kansas, when he's interrupted by an explosion, and the yelling voices of aliens . . "Kryptonian!" Deadman appears to have run out of luck, after he was cast into whatever demon dimension he's in . . because he did something Rama Kushna told him not to. But just as it appears to be over, 3 visions of loveliness appear before him. Hal's still thinking back on his competitiveness with Dill. All it cost him was getting kicked out of the space program. Even still, he's now rushing to his opponents aid. Metamorpho and Element Girl go further into the relics, only to find giant snakes as a deterrent. There's a game on the bottom of the page for kids. Blue Beetle is still battling Trident, but . .they're both worn out. Trident is still trying to kill the Titans. He says they're a danger to the future, but doesn't give specifics. However, we find out this time that he's Arthur Light's son. Adam Strange zeta-beamed back to Earth last issue only to find out that back home . . he's an old man. He seems to be set on an expedition in Peru, circa 1957, and after weeks of being stuck her, he's beginning to think that his life back on Rann was all just a dream. Supergirl goes to Aquaman for pet advice, but being the protector of the oceans . . 70% of Earth, seems to be keeping him a little busy. I think in order to get advice, she's going to have to go with him. The Metal Men have risen to the challenge and negated Dr Pretorius' threat of blowing them all up, but . . by circumventing his remote, they've unwittingly sent out a homing signal to an even bigger threat . . Chemo. I'm still a little confused about the Wonder Woman story. She's gotten most of the seven stars, now she just needs the sword, girdle and lasso. And she meets Etta this time. However I'm not sure if this is still a dream, and . . Ben Caldwell changes the format this time. That was a little confusing. Sgt Rock is aided in his escape when one of the scientists cuts his ropes. He wants to take the advantage while the Nazi's are busy. Barry has to again vibrate into the past, as he finds himself in space, and now there's 3 versions of himself. While in the story that was about Iris, we learn a little bit about the history of Gorilla Grodd. The Demon comes face to face with Morgaine Le Fey. And Hawkman, having brought down the plane in the ocean, and then to a deserted isle, finds that while most of the passengers have survived, although injured, he now has to face the threat of leaking, and exploding, fuel. Like I said last time, I'm starting to get into the stories more . . except for Wonder Woman, that is . . but I'm still not thrilled about the format. We just don't get very much information with each issue. But I'll keep getting it and reporting to see what kind of progress we make. It is some nice looking art though.
