    House of Heroes last edited by KillerZ on 03/10/24 11:20AM View full history

    The biggest adventure in DC’s history is here!

    Join visionary writer Grant Morrison, today’s most talented artists, and a cast of unforgettable characters from 52 alternative Earths of the known DC Multiverse! Prepare to meet the Vampire League of Earth-43, the Justice Riders of Earth-18, Superdemon, Doc Fate, the super-sons of Superman and Batman, the rampaging Retaliators of Earth-8, the Atomic Knights of Justice, Dino-Cop, Sister Miracle, Lady Quark, the legion of Sivanas, the Nazi New Reichsmen of Earth-10 and the latest, greatest Super Hero of Earth-Prime: YOU!

    Comprising six complete adventures – each set in a different parallel universe – plus a two-part framing story and a comprehensive guidebook to the many worlds of the Multiverse, THE MULTIVERSITY is more than just a multipart comic-book series. It’s a cosmos spanning, soul-shaking experience that puts YOU on the frontline in the Battle for All Creation against the demonic destroyers known as the Gentry!

    In issue #1, pencilled by superstar artist Ivan Reis (AQUAMAN, JUSTICE LEAGUE), President Superman of Earth-23 uncovers a threat to all Reality so apocalyptic it will take a team of incredible heroes from across the Multiverse to face it – including Captain Carrot, like you’ve never seen him before!

    But even with a multitude of alternate worlds to choose from, where every variation is possible, can anyone hope to prevail against the onslaught of ultimate evil and undying hatred – in the unstoppable form of a one-time cosmic defender with unimaginable powers?! Join us, if you dare, for the beginning of THE MULTIVERSITY!

    Notes:

    • Mary Marvel, Abin Sur, The Wizard, Fiddler, and the Thinker only appear on covers
    • The fifth cover is a homage of the cover of Action Comics #1.

    When I found out that Multiversity was actually coming out I was over the moon. When the days dwindled down and it was only a week away it was the only thing I was talking about. Today when it came out it was the only thing I could think about. So to put it lightly you could say I was excited. Now, Grant Morrison is my favorite writer so I would be excited to read anything the man wrote but the idea of Multiversity would of gotten me to check it out if anyone was writing it. So as of now I have ...

    A career like Grant Morrison is truly unique. His early work on titles like the Doom Patrol was frenzied in intensity and creativity. He later applied that creativity to the sometimes convoluted but almost always satisfied arcs that he brought to characters like Batman. Here, I feel he returns to his roots, and although the DC Universe is still his sandbox of choice, the chaos here transcends the limitations of any previously established continuities.

    So it's finally here, Grant Morrison's The Multiversity, and boy it did not disappoint. I'll try to right this with little to no spoilers, but if you have not read the book yet, be warned, there might be some minor spoilers. First off, I just want to say that the concept of this book is genius. A team comprised of heros from all 52 Earths being formed to fight an end of the universe? Count me in. We still don't know much about this group of baddies that our heros are fighting, but they app...
