What's DC's pitch to a prominent non-comics creator right now, especially from a marginalized background? "You'll get to write a superhero! For very little money! An insane fanbase will bay for your blood! And not only will we not defend you, we'll look for an oppurtunity to throw you overboard!"

Metamorpho! Rex is a top 10 DC character for me thanks to Ramona Fradon, and one of my favorites to draw. Of all the Terrifics, he turned out to be the one I missed the most afterward. Glad to see folks discovering him thanks to Superman. Also everybody should read Ewing/Lieber's book!

āWe brought this with us from homeā. I love movies and used to love going to the cinema but until Sinners had only been once in the last 13 years. And the only reason I went to the cinema to see this was because I got to go with one of my favourite people.
