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[...]

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.

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.
