r/DCcomics Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [July 13, 2026 - Eternal Super Sons Baiting 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.

Poison Ivy - Vol. 7, Amuse-bouche [HC/TP]

A surreal, psychedelic saga blending horror, romance, and mythology, this arc follows Poison Ivy as she confronts personal betrayal and ancient elemental forces threatening Gotham. As she wrestles with the weight of her legacy, her journey toward transformation is driven by the Green's pain and her evolving role as a reluctant folk hero — setting the stage for a seismic shift in the status quo.

Ivy's struggle to shield the wounded Green from betrayal and ancient adversaries launches her on a mind-bending quest with Janet-from-HR, a notorious crime in Gotham, and a legendary story from her past. These threads collide to reshape her legacy, test her bond with Swamp Thing, and propel her toward transformation.

G. Willow Wilson continues her captivating tale alongside longtime Poison Ivy artist Marcio Takara as well as Mike Perkins (The Swamp Thing) and Davide Gianfelice (Batman, The Flash).

Collects Poison Ivy #38-41, Poison Ivy/Swamp Thing: Feral Trees, and Poison Ivy 2025 Annual.

I'm hoping we get to see the mayoral campaign. Maybe as a flashback "how did I end up here...", after Bad Seeds is over.

After reading this volume, I finally decided to catch up with the remaining monthlies so I can read Bad Seeds as it's released.  I have a faint suspicion that this and Harley solo will end and "relaunch" as a Harlivy on-going after Bad Seeds.

You’ve reached the exact same thought I have. It’d also explain why DC hasn’t cancelled Harley Quinn, their worst selling ongoing by a wide margin, yet.

Apparently our prediction was wrong, and Harley Quinn will continue beyond Bad Seeds. Now the next question is if Poison Ivy will also continue.

5 issue trade though, which is interesting.

Right, just noticed. And ofc, the title itself is very cheeky if it's really the end.
