Ep 434: Checking Out DC Next Level

from Major Issues Podcast · host Comic Book Clique

This week on the Major Issues Podcast, we break down the latest wave of titles announced under DC’s Next Level initiative, including Barbara Gordon: Breakout, Lobo, Batwoman, Firestorm, Zatanna, and Deathstroke. Join us as we dig into the creative teams, the direction DC appears to be taking with these characters, and how this lineup reflects the publisher’s larger goals for the Next Level era. From street-level drama and cosmic chaos to magic and espionage, the conversation explores which books feel the most promising, which characters benefit the most from a relaunch, and how these projects could reshape corners of the DC Universe moving forward.
