Zero Hour heroes take the stage as DC’s multiverse shattering Convergence event enters its second week.

Lost worlds from DC’s past have been captured by Brainiac in domes but now Telos has broken the domes and declared to its heroes:

“Today your captivity turns to competition. And only one city among many will survive this day! Defenders of each domain will battle the other, and only the greatest heroes will live!”

ZERO HOUR was the Crisis in Time event by Dan Jurgens from 1994. In this week’s tie-in books, the heroes of ZERO HOUR are back including the hooked Aquaman, Azrael, the 90’s punk Superboy and an old school version of Suicide Squad…and Hal Jordan as Parallax!

  Get ready for a Kryptonian Clash! Superman, Superboy and Supergirl. Three heroes. One alien enemy. One big crossover. DC Comics revealed the #14 issues of all those series will featured in a battle against H’el, an alien with a “pro-Krypton, anti-Earth plan.”

  Superboy #14 by Tom DeFalco with art by R.B. Silva and Rob Lean guest stars Supergirl and the Teen Titans.

  In Supergirl #14 by Mike Johnson and Madmud Asrar, Kara encounters H’el but is she on his side?

 And in Superman #14 Scott Lobdell and Kenneth Rocafort, the Man of Steel faces H’el.

 DC is calling H’el a “creature of unknown Kryptonian origin who is not only more powerful than Superman, but is also smarter than Supergirl and more lethal than Superboy.”

H’el hits Earth this November.

  DC Comics is promising a team up of the revamped Superboy and new creation Bunker against the menace of Detritis in Superboy #11. Scott Lobdell writes both books.

  Superboy may have escaped N.O.W.H.E.R.E. but faces a big problem now that he’s free. Bunker is the Mexican, open and flamboyantly gay teen sensation that made mainstream media headlines when he was introduced in Teen Titans.  

  The two young men must team up against a metal monster in this cover by Scott Clark and Dave Beaty. This issue comes out in July.

 DC Comics The Source announced SMALLVILLE SEASON 11 by former Smallville show writer Bryan Q. Miller, the new digital first series will be published digitally on April 13, 2012, with new digital chapters released weekly thereafter.  The online chapters will be offered in a print periodical, along with an episode guide to the hit television series, with the first print issue released on May 16.

  The new comic book series continues where the show ended (with Clark officially now as Superman) and along with fan-favorites Oliver Queen/Green Arrow, Chloe Sullivan-Queen, Lois Lane, Lex Luthor, and General Lane.  The book features an all-star creative team – including print cover artist Gary Frank, digital cover artist Cat Staggs and interiors by Pere Perez.

  “Six months after Clark Kent donned the cape and took to the skies to save Earth from Apokolips… enter Season 11!” declares Miller.  “New allies abound!  New enemies afoot!  And old friends return where they’re least expected!  Pere and colorist Chris Beckett have done a fantastic job of capturing the look of the show and the players, and Gary and Cat are knocking it out of the park on covers. I couldn’t be more excited to help give seasoned viewers and new readers an all-access pass to Clark’s first year in the cape.”

 

Congratulations to patient Smallville fans! Enjoy1
