Today sees the publication of Action Comics #1065, Suicide Squad Dream Team #3 and Green Lantern #11, and they all have aspects tied in together, and beyond towards Absolute Power. As Amanda Waller insists she is the good guy…
… even as, in Suicide Squad Dream Team #3, she is reading the Amazo robot guard designs by Zur-En-Arrh, which will host multi-dimensional versions of Batman's backup personalities.
In Green Lantern #11, Guy Gardner is hunting down Lobo… even if it is not Lobo.
While in Action Comcis, we see the actual Lobo fighting alongside Superman against Brainiac's Czarnian Army, definitely using words like that.
And there's plenty of that from plenty a Czarnian as a certain child of Brainiac also makes it onto the scene.
And totally doxxes the Czarnians. All as Brainiac brings back a city from a long destroyed planet, courtesy of one of his many bottles.
From his homeworld of Colu. And he has plans for it, big ones, for someone at least.
A kingdom for a Queen, his new planned form as Queen Brainiac. And he's gathering folk – and powers – from all over, it seems to create her.
Working with Lex Luthor as well.
Although Luthor has his own narrative going on.
Why Czarnians? Well, they do have immortality as part of their genetic makeup, able to heal from a drop of blood, creating duplicates of themselves. Or they could once, at least.
Which is why he might even want a fake Lobo over in Green Lantern.
And it seems he has been taking the Czarnians all over the galaxy looking for superpowered planets.
… and just taking what they can.
So it's definitely not just Earth. But its an ill wind that blows no Amanda Waller any good. Even if Amanda Waller, killed Brainiac once. Well, one version of him.
But does Brainiac have a more altruistic plan? Will the Bad Guy Have A Point?
I mean, he's not overly find of Lex Luthor, who he has put to work, until that work is done.
And there's even a father-son moment that suggests what Brainiac is really looking for.
Is he going to give Vril Doz a new mother in the Brainiac Queen?
Unless he is already planning to use an existing one…
Dreamer knows the future with Amanda Waller…
As well as the past…
As Free Comic Book Day revealed that she was going for Brainiac's power absorption technology with Zur-En-Arrh…
…as well as what that will mean for everyone…
Absolute power? More like an absolute shower, Terry Thomas style…
