Wow! For a moment, I thought Mouse Man had unwisely decided to work for Count Nefaria. But, the High Evolutionary?! To call him an enigmatic anti-hero would be putting it mildly.
Great capture, Ross! Which WW issue is her portion originally from?
@Carycomic: It's from JLA #162.
Oh, yeah! The Maximus story arc. Thanks. :-)
@Cary: Actually, he was in JLA (v.1) #221-23. #162 was the start of Zatanna's long-overdue search for her birth-mom (and the transition from her ill-advised unitard to the even-worse outfit with the Lovecraftian scarab headdress).
I don't know, Anon. That bird-creature, alone, looks more like a Thanagarian Man-Hawk!
I actually would be a little surprised to not see a few additional seeds toward Richard Ryder in Thor: Love & Thunder and Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3. Even Captain Marvel 2 could give us a little something. Fans have been wanting it, and Kevin Feige is pretty good about giving fans what we want. (Personally I've never been excited about Nova, but all the noise has me interested in seeing what the MCU would have to offer for him!) So we just might get some Nova love in Phase 5, most likely on the big screen. And I'd consider it a huge treat if at least one of the above included a significant role for John C. Reilly.
Re: today's cover: these creatures look like they could be the combined work of Doctor Moreau and Anton Arcane. Swamp Thing taking the journey to the former's island in pursuit of the latter might make an interesting story in itself -- especially if the High Evolutionary is tutoring the two mad scientists!
On a lighter note, that rat-guy looks like he's making some remark to the scorpion-guy. I don't know what it'd be, but I like to think it's something we'd find humorous (like, some cultural reference or other).
I would love to see Richard Rider Nova in the MCU. However, Marvel has been pushing Sam Alexander very hard the last half decade or so, so I think RR will get the Janet Van Dyne/Hope Pym treatment.
Yeah, the Nova who has been both in the Spider-man and GOTG cartoons (which have a high success rate of predicting MCU appearances) has been Sam. Now that the GOTG have been to Earth and know the folks from Endgame, it makes sense they could run into Sam the next time Thor comes home to restock on Asgardian Mead, or the Nova Corps could ask them to check out rumors of a rouge Earth-based Nova.
For me, Sam or Richard doesn't matter. I'd just like to see an active Nova in any form.
@Jay: ...or even a rogue Nova. #PickyPickyPicky
@Carycomic They're right. It wasn't the Thanagarians, it was the Shark. I did a review of it a long time ago.

@ShadowWing Tronix: As in, Karshon (GL and Aquaman foe)?
@Cary: my guess would be yes.

Actually that must be some kind of insect-guy: Scorpions don't have antennae...
@Simreeve: maybe he was genetically engineered from a water scorpion. Techically, they're insects, not arachnids. They just happen to have pointed tails like true scorpions!
@Bob: I thought that looked wrong, but the spellchecker didn't complain, so...
And, apparently, Anon's spellchecker didn't notify him about "technically," either.
;-D
@Jay: So your spelling went rogue, and now your face is rouge!
@Ross: There's an idea for you: Mulan & Rogue. Then see how many people misread that name combo....
Rapunzel and I have a dream: Justice League vs. Xim The Despot!
The latter turning out to actually being an ancient Atlantean warlord who was exiled (robot army and all) to Mars.*
*I gotta stop eating Domino Meatzza's before bedtime.
@Cary: Please don't. It's too much fun for the rest of us!
@Bob: Super-lol!
@Carycomic Just saw the email. I don't know a lot about Shark's history. I think he fought Green Lantern but in this story he only mentions that Wonder Woman had used her lasso to force him not to become human again so he instead somehow evolved himself into a humanoid "super shark". His goal in the story was to create more of his kind with a compound stolen from STAR Labs.
@SWT: Ah, yes! Now, I remember. Thanks for the update.
