As the power battery was destroyed, thousands of Green Lanterns died or were stranded or incapacitated, John Stewart was one of the stranded in hostile territory, the Magistrate program had been approved by the mayor and Bruce battled Peacekeeper-01, Crush and Lobo got a miniseries, the Batman TAC got a second run, this run of Iron Fist ended, Felicia had some wins and then came the consequences, the Chameleon Conspiracy started in Spider-man, Hulk took on the Avengers again, the prelude event Infinite Destinies started (this involved the six individuals who were inhabited by/merged with the Infinity Gems), War of the Bounty Hunters started, and the Hellfire Gala had begun (this would be the most influential mutant event in recent history, other than X of Swords and the Krakoan age generally).

A Guardian was dead, we got introduced to a new character in Batman named Miracle Molly (one of the Unsanity Collective), the classic story: Thanos Quest got a reprinting in one volume, Storm had big changes in mind, Big things were happening in Hulk, America meets someone who is part of a past she doesn’t remember, Fisk hired everyone to get Boomerang and Spidey, the event Heroes Reborn started (II didn’t actually get many of these just because it didn’t look like a substantial event, but it had some influence on things, so I bought the collected edition which should arrive in July of this year.), and finally, the prelude to an event I got every issue from arrived, SW’s first major event of this era: War of the Bounty Hunters (this told the story of the moment Han got flown away on Slave I to the moment he was dropped off at Jabba’s palace. Yes, there was a lot between those two points.)

Mr. Worth was quite a crazy Batman character XD, the Warworld story in AC was beginning, the TT Academy was having problems on day one, Damian got a title all his own where he participated in a very deadly tournament (that arc ended recently), the 50th Anniversary of Man-Thing continued with another special, Miles got his own Clone Saga arc, Reed and Ben went exploring through the Forever Gate and found quite an expressive place, Silk was busy with a cat demon, Vader landed on Exegol, we got the guide for the first Krakoan Hellfire Gala (the second one is happening soon), and the next SW Insider.

I liked the cover for the guide, hence the standalone image, and then some more DWM issues.
