64. Question (JLU). I know there are purists that hate this take but FUCK, this is the best version of the character. His crackpot conspiracy theorist shit is always intriguing and hilarious. Not a weak line or moment the whole show. Watch Justice League, then watch JLU.
It is YOUR year. You WILL play an important role in an ongoing series. You WILL interact with your family and friends on-panel, you WILL have variant covers and character development, it WILL be a fruitful and abundant season for Eli Bradley, Patriot, I manifest it now.
6. Future State: Aquaman #1,2. They can share one spot, it's my list, sue me. Seeing Jackson as a fully realized Aquaman is everything , love the brother/sister relationship he has with Andy, I'm a sucker for that shit, every time she called him her brother it warmed my heart
10. The Other History Of The DC Universe #2. Karen and Mal just being black and in love, trying to navigate the craziness of life in the DC Universe. These characters don't get a lot of focus so seeing everything from their perspective was great.
60. Manifold a.k.a. Eden Fesi.
THE EVERYWHERE MAN!
Shuri's boo can talk to space, he can step to any Omega level mutant idc, Wakanda doesn't like anybody and they LOVE Eden, Gateway is basically his granddaddy, he's just a really chill, nice person THAT TALKS TO SPACE-
56. Alex Wilder. Betrayed the Runaways but fuck em, my dude was trying to save himself, his parents, his girl and even her family, Runaways act like he's Satan meanwhile Chase and Karolina can get away with any ol bullshit. White writers clearly don't know what to do with him
55. Hypno-Hustler a.k.a. Antoine Delsoin.
I mean...just look at him. How could I NOT love him, this is my favorite thing in the world.
54. Ha'Wea. Now that's a love interest! I love this guy just for existing, THANK GOD Jackson didn't get a bland white boy as his love interest plus he's adorable, met Jackson and started sharing poetry and shit, read Aquaman: The Becoming and Ha'Wea's intro in Aquaman #62, 63.
53. Power Man a.ka. Victor Alvarez. The protégé (and love child) of Power Man and Iron Fist. Dated White Tiger and they were cute. He can draw on the history and culture around him to super-charge his chi, can kind of talk to ghosts and you should read Ewing's Mighty Avengers!
50. Apocalypse. What do you want me to say that I haven't said?! MY ANCESTOR! A FATHER! A HUSBAND! A TEACHER! A HERO! He and Genesis have one of the most epic love stories in comics! I can't read the Crucible issue or X of Swords: Destruction without tearing up!
