THE COUNTDOWN RUNDOWN - WEEK 44: CHANGES OF ADDRESS


Due to a family vacation, this week's Rundown is super-short:

ISSUE 44

Jimmy Olsen plays tough and discovers more super-powers in his mystery box - this time another blast to the past with Porcupine powers!

Holly Robinson (a/k/a Catwoman II) hooks up with a bunch of Amazons in a very good-looking homeless shelter!


The man formerly known as Captain Atom, now parading through the Multiverse as Monarch, entices a recently fired Monitor lackey to join him. Forerunner takes the deal . . . for now!

The Trickster and the Pied Piper realize that they are now in a world of hurt, having participated (however tangentially) in the death of The Flash (Bart Allen). The whole world is going to be gunning for the Rogues, and they know it!

Mary Marvel finally finds her brother, the former Captain Marvel and current keeper of the Rock of Eternity. Billy isn't too happy with Mary's choice of powers (she inherited them from Black Adam!) and the two don't exactly see eye to eye on Mary's future!

Plus, Dan Jurgens's recap of the history of the DCU Multiverse back-up feature hits is midway point with a look at the original death of the Multiverse in Crisis on Infinite Earths!

Next week, the Rundown will be back to full capacity, the promised side-article on Captain Atom/Monarch will be up, and the lowdown on Issue 43 promises: A Funeral for a Friend!
