This release has me thinking back to two of my favorite sets from Pokémon TCG's past: Legendary Treasures and Generations Comparing these sets and the upcoming Celebrations, I can't help but wonder… whatever happened to the Radiant Collection? Radiant Collection Mew Credit: Pokémon TCG First, a bit on what the Radiant Collection is[...]

Often by shunting older stories into parallel worlds or attributing them to other characters (poor Supergirl and Power Girl, getting conflated like that). Well, today's Generations Forged #1 has introduced a new way of seeing things, The Linearverse The series has seen characters picked out of time and space, often continuity that no longer exists, or[...]

DC Comics titles today have ads for Generations: Shattered, the cross-time caper led by Dan Jurgens, spinning out of Detective Comics #1027 and Dark Nights: Death Metal and maybe, just maybe, having some relevance to Future State and what will follow it And laying out when and where the various characters have their origins. The Cast[...]

Once upon a time, DC Comics was going to publish a series of one-shots, the Generations books, which would lay out the new DC Timeline and lead to a relaunch and a rewriting of the DC Universe as 5G or Generation Five Then publisher and champion of the project, Dan DiDio, was fired and the[...]

Once upon a time DC's Generations series was to lead up to a big reboot/relaunch of DC Comics with a Crisis, an ageing of the main superhero line and new characters taking over the lead books, as part of 5G or Generation Five But then publisher Dan DiDio was fired and DC Comics took advantage[...]

That was the plan anyway. And it would begin with the Generations volumes, numbered one to five, running through the summer Then DiDio was fired, shutdown happened and DC Comics took the opportunity to sh-tcan the whole thing Generations Zero that was planned for the Free Comic Book Day issue, along with the new DC Timeline[...]

Even if one despises the work of the other… Superman & Batman: Generations Omnibus HC  Feb 21, 2021 Legendary writer and illustrator, John Byrne, transports us through this century-spanning tale to witness the evil that brings the Batman and Superman together as a team Now collected entirely in an omnibus! Imagine a world where Superman and Batman aged[...]

A new 60-year history of the DC Universe, with some time-twisting shenanigans along the way (thanks to Zero Hour, Crisis and Doomsday Clock), but showing us four distinct generations of DC Comics history And realising that 5G meant the fifth generation of DC Comics history We then learned that Jonathan Kent will be aged again,[...]

As with all figures in the relatively new Studio Series line, the figure is meant to commemorate over a decade of live-action TF films. With the Prime Wars Trilogy, the third era of the Generations line draws to a close Optimus Primal has been made a Prime and thus turned (once again) into Optimal Optimus. #gallery-4 { margin:[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Generations: Ms Marvel #1 I've yet to give my opinion of Kamala Khan, AKA Ms Marvel, in my time on Bleeding Cool Well, it's time to do that. I think she's great She is among the most charming and inspiring heroes in modern comics She maintains that sense of altruism and dedication to what's right that[...]

After all, Jason Aaron, the writer of Marvel Legacy #1, has been using the Phoenix a fair bit of late himself, in The Mighty Thor and Generations: Thor He obviously has plans for the character And with rumours that Aaron is taking over Avengers in the future with a big event in mind, perhaps it's[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Generations: Hawkeye This one slipped past me somehow I'm sad; this was the Generations one-shot I was most looking forward too, and I somehow missed it when the week it was released. In any case, Kate Bishop finds Clint Barton locked in a deadly competition of the best marksmen in the world After convincing young Hawkeye[...]

In the Generations series of comics, we see a recent adopter of a Marvel identity — Miles Morales Spider-Man, Jane Foster Thor, Riri Williams Iron Heart, Amadeus Cho Hulk, and the like take a trip in time to meet their classic counterpart in a different period They have some form of adventure together And then[...]

Secret Empire #10 is satisfying, but it still suffers from being a Secret Empire ending, with many of the same hang-ups of the series as a whole.

So when I picked up Generations: All-New Wolverine/Wolverine #1 from Third Eye Comics, I knew I was going in with a decent enough background. The book opens with Wolverine chest-deep in fighting undead ninjas, when X-24 shows up and kicks major ass We don't know how or why she showed up, but she's there, and willing[...]

Generations: Wolverine & All-New Wolverine has action, blood, heart, and a touching reunion. It's a very solid read; you won't regret picking this one up.

In their gearing up for the next “non-reboot,” Marvel is releasing their Generation line of one-shots, wherein the new identity of some hero titles meets

Marvel Comics was originally going to advertise the Secret Empire comic book series on TV, but some negative public reaction to the very existence of the storyline — despite having a silver lining, according to Marvel EIC Axel Alonso — seems to have scuppered that plan, as well as various other activities in renaming and rebranding[...]

As it starts next month, the PR machine must really ramp up for Marvel's ten issue series of one-shots, Generations, that promises to prove that there is space in the Marvel Universe for original Legacy characters and their modern counterparts. All beginning inside yet another Marvel event, the currently running Secret Empire, the stories begin with[...]

Marvel has released yet another media blast for Generations, the upcoming publishing stunt that will save Marvel from the brink of destruction as the ever-diminishing effects of its current marketing stunt, Secret Empire, continue to fade This marks the third time Marvel has tried to reveal its plans for Generations, only to leave out key details[...]

Marvel have teased the final issue of Secret Empire this week, with the tagline of 'What is the Vanishing Point?' and with cover art taken from the Generations art created by Alex Ross. This obviously suggests that there is a closer link to Secret Empire and Generations than previously assumed, but just what is that link?[...]

Everyone else is the original, or even classic, version of the character. Captain Marvel is the only modern day, diverse version of an original character to have taken on the name after their classic counterpart. Considering Marvel are making a definitive promise that Generations and Legacy will see the new and the old side-by-side for a Marvel[...]

But while DC may have scored some major points in the artist arena, the company failed to capitalize on Marvel's more prominent diversity gaffe[...]
