The more we explored Earth-S, the more it felt like a reminder of what superhero stories used to celebrate. Do modern comics need more wonder?

The Batgirl/Supergirl conversation might be one of the most emotionally grounded scenes in all of Crisis. Do you agree?

Doctor Light II, having just made her first appearance last month in Crisis on Infinite Earths #4, appears in Who's Who #6, released on May 23, 1985. Dawnstar, who featured in the first arc of Crisis, also appears this issue.

Facsimile Edition of Crisis on Infinite Earths #2 released on May 21, 2024, with standard, foil, and blank/sketch covers available.

The first appearance of Lyla! New Teen Titans Annual #2 on sale May 17, 1983. The second appearance of the mysterious Monitor!

If memory defines reality in DC… Is canon just perspective?

Marv Wolfman didn’t just write a crossover. He helped define the moment DC decided continuity itself could become the story. Without Crisis on Infinite Earths, does the modern “event comic” even exist in the form we know it today? Happy 80th birthday to Marv!

May 9, 1985 - Crisis on Infinite Earths #5 is released: The Monitor - dead! The remaining heroes - assembled! And the Anti-Monitor revealed.

On May 8, 2019, DC released Crisis on Infinite Earths Companion Deluxe Edition Vol. 2. The hardcover collects various crossover issues that connect to the larger Crisis storyline. Did you pick this up?

Happy Star Wars Day - May the 4th Be With You! @Tdawghockey and I started building The Ghost from Star Wars: Rebels and Ashoka. Great build and includes my favorite droid from all of Star Wars - Chopper!

The strangest part of Crisis isn’t what changed… It’s who remembers that it did. Have you ever noticed that?

If two characters remember completely different versions of history… Which one is canon?
