The Purple Skies Of DC Comics' Knight Terrors This Week (Spoilers)
The Knight Terrors crossover running through the DC titles may heavily impact the characters. Or just have purple skies. Spoilers ahead...
One of the many things the Crisis On Infinite Earths was known for when it was published forty-ish years ago, was the Red Skies. Indeed, certain crossovers are known for being "red sky" issues, not impinging in any other way other than someone in the comic noticing the colour of the sky. Well, the Knight Terrors crossover events running through the DC Universe may be a little like that too. Some will impact on the final battle, with characters lining up for one big push. Others have DC characters suffer some really strong nightmares and wake up a world transformed, with nightmares walking the streets and the sky turned purple. Which is which? Well, will the second issues of Knight Terror tiw-ins starting to land, we're starting to get an idea. Knight Terrors spoilers ahead…
As Black Adam seems to get a Sleepless Knight of his own, drawn from his mythological history and symbology.
Poison Ivy and Janet from HR just got a purple sky…
The Joker gets his own Mitch McConnell moment two minute moment.
But I somehow don't think Mitch McConnell has this excuse.
Purple skies and a bad headache for The Joker. Oh and some really bad jokes.
The Ravager also gets purple skies as Stormwatch come a-calling.
But also ties into the upcoming Brave And The Bold. And may have brought a certain Knight Terror with her.
Batman has a lot of purple to battle through…
But a battle to face when he gets there. And yes Damian is holding a gun. But it's the one belonging to Wesley Dodds… and a direct continuation right into the main Knight Terrors event.
