DC IS OUT OF IDEAS


DC Comics has an upcoming month-long cosmic event called "GODHEAD". The solicts read:  "Highfather, leader of the New Gods, has long studied the infinite and infinitely mysterious Source Wall which surrounds the universe. Now, he has learned that during “Green Lantern: Lights Out,” the ring-wielders broke through the Wall and stole secrets of cosmic importance. Determined to breach the Source Wall himself, Highfather must gain one of each colored ring in the emotional spectrum."

Hmmm, 7 Cosmic Rings, each a different color, combined into a "cosmic cube" of Power.....

Just... amazing in its unapologetic similarities to Marvel's Cosmic Cube & Infinity Gauntlet.

While we're at it, anyone wanna comment on the Jawa hanging out with Thanos?

(Kidding, I know it's suppose to be Death.)

I wonder how they will fudge 7 rings fitting in a 6-sided cube...

but seven rings are always better than six gems!
