DC Comics – Convergence, Divergence … Resurgence?

So it’s goodbye to the New 52.

Look at them […]

Batman isn’t quite at his wits’ end dealing with the latest attack on Gotham by the Joker, but for once he doesn’t have a plan. In Endgame’s fourth chapter, the Clown Prince of Crime’s madness virus is claiming more and more victims, and if a cure isn’t found, death is the end. It seems death […]
