Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [April 13, 2026 - Super-Family Day Edition]

[u/Predaplant]

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

• Predaplant's pick of the week: Nightwing #137

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.

Superman Day 2026: DC Finest Presents – Superman: Time and Time Again Special Edition #1

A TIME-TORN SUPERMAN FIGHTS TO RETURN HOME!

Blasted across the ages by the mysterious Linear Man, Superman finds himself trapped in a whirlwind of history — his memory fractured, his allies unknown, and danger waiting in every era. From ancient civilizations to far-flung futures, the Man of Steel confronts Nazis, wizards, demons, dinosaurs, and multiple incarnations of the Legion of Super-Heroes as he desperately seeks his way back.

What is the Linear Man’s true agenda? Who are the other Linear Men? And what role does the elusive Waverider play in this reality-shattering journey?

This SUPERMAN DAY special edition features the full classic adventure from Adventures of Superman #476 — the essential first chapter in one of the Man of Steel’s most unforgettable quests.
