Hawkman V5 (2018)

Posted on by EHT Comics

A new Hawkman series was announced in March 2018 with writing by Robert Venditti and art by Bryan Hitch, the book will explore Carter Hall’s experiences after the events that happened during Dark Nights: Metal, alongside his relationship to Hawkgirl.

The first arc of the comic deals with Hall, believing there are gaps in the memories of his past lives, recovering a mystical artefact that allows him to unlock all his memories. He becomes aware of multiple previous incarnations of himself, which include Katar Hol, and also has a vision of Earth in the future, destroyed by gigantic winged creatures (later revealed to be spaceships) known as the Deathbringers. Hall deduces that his first human incarnation, Prince Khufu, had the same vision, resulting in a winged figure becoming an important symbol throughout all his lives.

Carter Hall also discovers that, as well as reincarnating over time on Earth, he has also lived multiple lives on alien worlds, and at least once two or more of his reincarnations have existed simultaneously.

Jonah Hex: Two Gun Mojo (1993)

Posted on by EHT Comics

Two-Gun Mojo is a five-issue Jonah Hex storyline published by the Vertigo Comics imprint. Following the conclusion to Hex, a series that placed him into a post-apocalyptic future, this was the first Jonah Hex project in five years and returned him to his Western roots. Because of its Vertigo publication, an imprint usually associated with dark fantasy, the series deals with the Western-Horror genre and uses zombies as the antagonists. This creative team would go on to write the next Hex series, Riders of the Worm and Such.

Posted on by EHT Comics

On July 16, 2013, DC announced that a new Harley Quinn ongoing comic book series would begin publication in November 2013, co-written by Amanda Conner and her husband Jimmy Palmiotti, cover illustrated by Conner, and story illustrated by Chad Hardin. The series has notably become distanced from the “Batman Family” of DC publications in both tone and premise, with Harley no longer having any significant connection to either Batman or the Joker following the “Death of the Family” storyline. In the series, Harley Quinn has become a landlady at Coney Island, is a part-time member of a roller derby team and has returned to her work in psychology under her real alias, indicating that Harley’s real identity is not public knowledge in the new status quo.

Star Trek V1- DC (1984)

Posted on by EHT Comics

The plot of the 1984 DC series picked up immediately after Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. After eight issues the series took place after Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.[5] In these later issues, Kirk, after a multi-issue showdown with the Mirror Universe, takes command of the Excelsior. Spock is mentally restored after mind-melding with his mirror self and takes command of the USS Surak. Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home took place right after III left off, so the series wiped the slate clean by having Kirk lose command of the Excelsior and Spock return to the state he was in at the end of III. After The Voyage Home, the series continued with Kirk commanding the Enterprise-A. These issues re-introduced Arex and M’Ress from Star Trek: The Animated Series. The series ended in 1988 after 56 issues, 3 annuals, and two film adaptations, when Paramount required all tie-in licenses to be renegotiated.

The story revolves around Sister Shannon Masters, a Joan of Arc like heroine of the Order of the Cruciform Sword, a fictional military order of Warrior Nuns and Magic Priests in service of the Catholic Church.

In modern times, this has grown to a world spanning organization in the service of the Catholic Church with the current Areala, Sister Shannon Masters as the best and brightest.

The New Mutants V1 (1990’s)

Posted on by EHT Comics

Sales of The New Mutants had slumped for several years in the late 80’s, but took a sharp upturn after Rob Liefeld took over the penciling and co-plotting chores at the end of 1989. A new mentor for the group, the mysterious mercenary Cable, was introduced, further helping sales. Over the next year, several longtime team members were written out or killed off. However, the relationship between Liefeld and Simonson was fraught with tension, and Simonson claims that Harras dealt with the situation by rewriting her plots and dialogue so that the characterizations did not make sense: “Although I wasn’t being fired, I think I was being shoved out the door with both hands by Bob Harras. Bob was only doing what he had to do, I expect, which was make Rob Liefeld happy.” Simonson eventually gave in, leaving after issue #97. When Liefeld and Fabian Nicieza, who wrote dialogue based on Liefeld’s plots, took over as writers of the final three issues of the series, they included several harder-edged characters.

The New Mutants was cancelled in 1991 with issue #100, but the new platoon-like team formed by Cable continued in X-Force, a successful series (whose first issue sold approximately one million copies) that would continue until 2002, and feature a variety of the former New Mutants cast.
