When I started this blog more than a year ago I had come across an episode of Alcatraz where a character was wearing a Wesley Dodds Sandman t-shirt. It was awesome and I took to the internet to find it. I couldn’t and it still can’t. But I have come across a couple of JSA related Ts.  Batman (1, 2, 3) Big Barda (1) Black Adam (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) Black Canary (1, 2) Captain Marvel, Jr. (1) Doctor Fate (1, 2) Eclipso (1) The Flash (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) Green Lantern (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) Hawkman (1, 2) Jade (1) Mary Marvel (1, 2, 3) Mister Miracle (1) Power Girl (1) Red Tornado (1) Shazam (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17) Superman (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) Superman: Kingdom Come (1, 2, 3, 4) Wonder Woman (1) While I have found some awesome t-shirts like the Doctor Fate one from above I still wish I could find the Sandman T. My guess is they made it for the show but if anyone has a clue of where to buy it… let me know.

Newsarama just posted the other half of the WTF cover for Earth 2 #11! Oh man! Doctor Fate, Mister Miracle, and Fury. Doesn’t that make you wonder if Fury has a connection to Big Barda? And with all these titles being thrown around I feel like we should be calling her Miss Fury or Professor Fury.

Now that we have been formally introduced, what does everyone think of the new Wotan?

USA Today has an exclusive preview of Earth 2 #10 and an interview with James Robinson and Nicola Scott. James had this to say about the Kent Nelson’s relationship with the book: You know how sometimes people by being dead they’re more interesting to the story than if they were alive? Kent Nelson will have that role, and there will be a mystery about Kent’s death that we will get into down the line as well. Nicola Scott had this to say about Woton: While re-familiarizing myself with Wotan’s past looks, there was something that struck me about his origin that I felt hadn’t been addressed visually before: He’s lived many lives over a few millennia, appearing as either gender over and over. I felt by now he might have become a bit gender neutral, rather androgynous. His odd skin color is the only real thing we kept, and it’s part of the story.
