Spoilers for comics in July!

These are from the official solicits for that month, which you can see in full at Adventures In Poor Taste. Of note: DC comics return to Wednesday releases as of that month.

THE FLASH #11 Written by SIMON SPURRIER Art by RAMÓN PÉREZ Cover by MIKE DEODATO Jr. Variant covers by JAVIER RODRÍGUEZ and MATT TAYLOR Artist Spotlight Variant cover by JOSÉ LUIS GARCÍA-LÓPEZ $3.99 US | 32 pages | Variant $4.99 US (card stock) ON SALE 7/24/24 As Barry, Max, Mr. Terrific, and Pilgrim head into the Speed Force to uncover what’s really causing all the chaos around the world, Wally returns home but is under the same mind control that seized Barry. Meanwhile, Linda finally meets the Resident, the being Wally turned to while trapped in the Gallery!

I get the feeling the chaos may be (partially) caused by somebody who appears on the above variant cover. He sure seems to be having a good time.

The next two solicits are speculative and are included here because they may possibly be of interest.

POWER GIRL #11 Written by LEAH WILLIAMS Art by EDUARDO PANSICA and JÚLIO FERREIRA Cover by YANICK PAQUETTE Variant covers by TERRY DODSON and INHYUK LEE $3.99 US | 32 pages | Variant $4.99 US (card stock) ON SALE 7/24/24 Forever alone?! Dating is hard, especially if you’re Metropolis’s breakout hero Power Girl. Will an innocent date with the mysterious Axel be just what Paige needs to get her groove back? Or are there some skeletons in her suitor’s closet waiting to be set free?

This probably isn't our Axel, but it's here just in case.

DARK KNIGHTS OF STEEL: ALLWINTER #1 Written by JAY KRISTOFF and TOM TAYLOR Art by TIRSO CONS and RICCARDO FEDERICI Cover by TIRSO CONS Variant cover by GERARDO ZAFFINO Variant cover by FRANCESCO MATTINA 1:25 variant cover by HOMARE 1:50 variant cover by FRANCESCO MATTINA Foil variant by HOMARE ($6.99 US) $4.99 US | 40 pages | 1 of 6 | Variant $5.99 US (card stock) ON SALE 7/17/24 The snow falls thick, blood runs black, and color itself is only a distant memory. The legendary assassin Deathstroke stalks a frozen wasteland, killing for coin among a nation of ever-warring jarls. But when our murderer for hire finds himself cast in the role of reluctant guardian, will he fight to end the icy curse destroying his land or be consumed by the sins of his own dark past? The red-hot Dark Knights of Steel epic expands into bone-chilling new territories with new surprises in store!

It seems likely that Len will appear in this AU (and hopefully Lisa will too), but who knows. One of the variant covers appears to have Killer Frost, though she isn't named and it could be someone else.

This idea wouldn't leave me alone, but I don't feel up to writing it myself. At least not right now. So I drew for it instead and decided to put it out here in case anyone feels inspired by it.

Writing Prompt:

Basic Idea: Somehow the consciousness/memories/skills of different Dick Grayson variants across the infinite earths get merged with regular Nightwing Dick Grayson

Possible Ideas for this:

> interesting variants might include Renegade, Talon, Agent 37, Vampire Dick, non-vigilante Dick (maybe even from a coffee shop AU)

> as initial events there could be Speedster's mishap, mad scientist, Bat experiment (or contingency plan) gone wrong

> when I considered writing this, I figured that at first everything might look good, like nothing happenened, then dreams starting to get weird turning to voices in his head while awake to actually seeing hallucinations to maybe even phases of take-over from one of the others. A slow decline if you will. All at once might be interesting, too, though. Up to you.

> as for take-overs, I was thinking maybe getting overwhelmed by thugs on patrol and Renegade deciding to throw the no-kill-rule out the window. Or an Arkham breakout and overhearing Jason yelling about the Joker still being alive only for Talon to go "oh, finally, a target, something I know how to do"

> time-wise anything's possible. Personally I was thinking maybe after the Spyral-fiasco to make Dick alienated and lonely enough for the drama to sufficiently unfold without early interference. 

> other ideas I had included: non-vigilante Dick being either a coffee artist and/or passionate about healthy food who won't stand for this universe's Dick's sub-par coffee/eating; having discussions or arguments or simply talking to his other parts aloud and people thinking he's lost it

Should anyone feel inspired and create something based on this idea, please share it with me so I can properly cherish your awesomness!
