Death in the Family and Goodnight Christopher Lee

You may have noticed a lack of posts this week. The reason is because my Uncle Kenny died last Thursday night at the age of 75 after fighting COPD for the past few years. His funeral was yesterday afternoon and I still can't believe that he's gone. He never married or had any kids but he did serve two years in the United States Army.

The first news that I read this afternoon after getting online was the death of Sir Christopher Lee at 93. Kind of bummer to see that the legendary actor that has played in so many horror movies have passed on.

Women Wednesday: Superwoman vs Wonder Woman

Today's battling women is brought to you by Convergence: Crime Syndicate #2 (July 2015):

The catfight between Superwoman from the Crime Syndicate of Earth 3 and the Wonder Woman of Justice Legion Alpha from the 853rd century starts rather late (WW does fight Ultraman and knocks out Owlman earlier):

This would make a cool poster or a t-shirt:

The women appear to be at a stalemate:

One of the women does rise out of the rubble but that's the last page that I don't want to spoil here so you need to pick up the issue and find out who wins for yourself.

DC's Infinite Crisis Game Shutting Down

Bad news for DC's INFINITE CRISIS Game Shutting Down In August. The game started only three months ago and no reason yet has been given for the shut down. I have always wanted to play it but never got around to it so there seems to be no point in doing so now.

Convergence #8

The cover of Convergence #8 (July 2015) shows Hal Jordan as Parallax, Supergirl, Flash, Superman, Lois Lane and baby in a giant hand (yes, they are all the pre-Crisis versions):

The highlights of this issue for me are the double page spreads featuring the alternate Earths in the multiverse that has been restored by the undoing of Crisis on Infinite Earths:

Of course, the planet that Telos was tied to becomes the new Earth 2.

To me this issue seemed rushed and left me a little underwhelmed. It's great to see the multiverse back but how exactly they did it was not shown. I think this event warranted at least two more issues. I have to wonder how many of these alternate Earths we will really see in the future.
