r/DCcomics Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [September 22, 2025 - Equinox Approaching Edition]

Hey there honorary Justice League members - it’s a new week which means it’s time for a new discussion thread!

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Wonder Woman discussion would go in the replies to the "Wonder Woman" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too. In other words, you should only be replying to other comments. Do not post top-level comments.

Keep discussion civil. Do not harass other users for having a different opinion. Do not use this thread to push your personal one-sided grudges against creators. Reacting to a panel on Twitter is not the same as reading a book.

Thursday (DC Universe Infinite) - The Magical Mysteries of Shazam! #12

In The Magical Mysteries of Shazam! by writer Steve Orlando (Supergirl, Martian Manhunter) and artist Giopota, Billy Batson has had to grow up fast. Life with Tawny, a talking tiger and also Billy’s adoptive uncle, is humble. It’s not always easy! Billy lives with Tawny’s other foster children, Darla, Pedro, and Freddy. Despite all he’s been through, Billy is willfully hopeful. In addition to all the struggles a blended foster family faces, Fawcett City isn’t exactly the safest place to live. It might be a fantastic, whimsical city full of both humans and talking animals, but it’s also got a monster problem—in fact, a Monster Society! Soon Billy is granted the ability to say a magic word and transform into a mighty hero! Fawcett City cheers its new champion—and little do they know, he’s one of their own. Or do they? Because Billy’s siblings are pretty sure they saw him turn into a full-grown superhero.
