Review – Justice League Unlimited #9: Battle for Time
Justice League Unlimited #9 cover, via DC Comics. Ray: It's the aftermath of 'We Are Yesterday', and the big threat is resolved – but it's created a few dozen new perils for the League. Grodd has been captured, but his machinations have created a ripple that have left countless timelost heroes stranded in the present including Batman Beyond, Jonah Hex, and even the deceased Abin Sur. Additionally, new characters keep popping in and out – including a chaotic Harley Quinn who still loves her 'Mistah J'. The timeline is increasingly unstable, the anomalies are increasing, Air Wave is still missing and possibly dead, and everyone is worried about time paradoxes – except Mister Terrific, who has holed up in his lab with his past self as they try to figure out how to get Air Wave back to the present. Michael Holt once again proves that he's one of the DCU's best characters, but the past Terrific blinks out of existence just before he can reveal his findings. Mistah J. Via DC Comics. And as the chaos escalates, the heroes get an unexpected helping hand – from the Time Trapper, aka Doomsday, who has become an unlikely ally of Superman. He's brought with him the World Forger, a cosmic being who was linked to Perpetua and the Monitor. They both want to set things right – but they might need to claim Grodd's life to pull it off. Grodd wastes no time manipulating things in his favor, and it nearly sets off a war between the present-day heroes and the time-displaced ones. There is a lot going on in this issue, with a bunch of fantastic easter eggs and cameos through the issue, but the story is at its best as Holt tries to solve this puzzle and bring Air Wave back to the land of the living. The story of this abandoned kid who was manipulated by Grodd has been the emotional core of this run in many ways, and this issue brings the whole story full circle with style.

Review – Green Arrow #26: Drugged
Green Arrow #26 cover, via DC Comics. Ray: Chris Condon's second arc dials back the clock to one of the darkest chapters of Green Arrow's history – Roy Harper's addiction, and the horrible way Ollie reacted when he found him shooting up in that infamous issue. Now, Roy's seemingly relapsed – being found unconscious in an alley, in a coma, after a massive overdose that also claimed the life of the man found with him. When Ollie finds out, he's immediately overcome with rage and disbelief, insisting that Roy wouldn't slip up like that. Of course, we know that's absolutely the truth – Roy was targeted, like countless other ex-addicts, by the Crimson Archer, a twisted new vigilante who seems to be targeting what he deems the dregs of society. Similar to the first arc, it's a villain with an MO that's all too relevant if you're watching the news. Unlike the first arc's villain, there's nothing sympathetic or tragic about this monster. Partners. Via DC Comics. Of course, Ollie isn't the only one who's invested in Roy's fate – Lian is over as soon as she hears, and Ollie is forced to step up to protect his granddaughter. I'm glad to see this character being pulled into the story – she's only been used fitfully since she returned from the dead a few years back, and Josh Williamson used her really well in his run. But now, Ollie has a new case to investigate – and this one is even more deeply personal. Along with the help of the detective he partnered with last arc, he starts digging into what turns out to be a massive streak of serial killings targeting those vulnerable to addiction and overdoses – of which Roy might be the only survivor. But as the end of the issue indicates, the Crimson Archer may not be done with Arsenal just yet. This is one of the tensest issues of the run, with a deeply personal look at the long reach of addiction that you rarely see in comics. To find reviews of all the DC issues, visit DC This Week.

Charlottetown distances itself from MAGA musician's performance at city-owned venue
The City of Charlottetown says an upcoming concert by controversial U.S. Christian musician Sean Feucht is 'not a city-sponsored event.' Feucht, a rising star in the MAGA movement, is a missionary and author who has spoken out against the 2SLGBTQ+ community, abortion rights and critical race theory on his website. He's scheduled to perform Thursday at city-owned Confederation Landing in downtown Charlottetown just days before the the beginning of Pride Fest 2025. "The City is aware of a concert taking place at Confederation Landing … and of some concerns raised by members of the public regarding the performer," reads a statement from the city. "This is not a City-sponsored event and while a permit was issued to the organizers, from a legal standpoint we are limited in restricting access to public spaces." The release adds that the city wants to be clear in its full support of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. "If there are any opinions or statements expressed by any performer to the contrary, they are not the views of the City," the statement reads. The statement was posted on Facebook, where several commenters criticized the decision not to cancel the performance or revoke the permit. Feucht is also on Wednesday, which has also sparked outcry from some residents there who are urging Parks Canada to cancel the event.
