    If you aren't reading The Omega Men, you're slipping.

    Just read that Constantine number 1 and they do the ? stuff off the jump. It's sad too because Dark Universe's (Justice League Dark) ideas went into that book. Straight trash.

    Yeah man its really good. When it came out over here the issues were sold out. Might want to read them online.

    I need to catch up on Morning Glories too, last issue I read was 34. Probably at 53 the way they ship their comics out.

    Constantine is far from trash. It's easily the best book that character has been in since Flashpoint.

    I read the first five issues and he seemed pretty bland to me. He was more of the ? he was in Hell blazer but that was the extent of it.

    Picked up Clean Room # 1 and 2 on my lunch break.

    Art looks fantastic. I hope Gail Simone does this story justice.

    Yeah Injustice was dope but I fell really behind during year 2 and they're now on year 5 (the last one) so I guess I'll trade wait it all.

    I left off on Year 3... I will wait til year 4 and 5 come out in graphic novel form... But very entertaining story so many characters getting killed during this war its crazy man.

    I gave up on Injustice. It was fun at first but it became mostly filler. It didn't really hold interest.

    What is the Significance of Omega? i thought Omega was just a symbol for Darkseid. Is it something more in the DC universe? They have the same symbol as darkseids omega symbol. Did he create them or something?

    The word omega just means end as in the last letter of the greek alphabet which is what brings an end to that sequence (this letter here: Ω). Omega Men represent the end of the tyranny and oppression of The Citadelians in their story. Darkseid also represents and end of things but he exists in a plane of existence unknown by most in the DCU iand simply beyond their level of understanding in every way.
