"This creative team has consistently delivered strong performances across the series, and [Mr. Terrific: Year One] #5 is no exception. It’s thrilling, heartfelt, and thoughtful in equal measure...as much as I’m eager to see how it all ends, I don’t want this ride to be over."

‘Mr. Terrific: Year One’ #5 is thrilling, heartfelt, and thoughtful in equal measure

In the present, Mr. Terrific is far from home, facing a deadly menace; in the past, he battles the terror consuming his city.

This Wednesday, New History of the DCU #3 comes out. So much heart, knowledge, and research went into every one of these issues. This issue contains the info on most of the formative DC Comics of my life. The ones that made me a reader, made me want to make comics, and made me the person I am.

DC GIANT also ALSO was where I got a fleeting chance to work with the late, great, Tom Lyle. Tom gave me a shot when I was still very young and breaking in was a pipe dream, but he took my call and developed a pitch with me. I'll never forget that--or him.

Wonder Woman #25 will introduce a new Villian called "Matriarch".
