FINAL CRISIS: Indirect tie-in list *SPOILERS*

[Paul Newell]

Getting together a checklist of indirect tie-ins to Final Crisis. So far we have:

SIGHTINGS:

Justice League of America #21 - Libra gathers together the villains and the Human Flame.

DARK SIDE CLUB:

Birds Of Prey #118 - Misfit & Black Alice are captured by the Dark Side Club.

Infinity Inc #11 - 12 - Several members are captured by the Dark Side Club.

Teen Titans #55 - 59 - The Terror Titans capture Kid Devil & Miss Martian and sell them to the Dark Side Club.

The Flash # 238 - 243 - Members of the Dark Side Club capture The Flash's children.

Terror Titans #1 - 6 - The Terror Titans take over the now empty Dark Side Club.


LAST RITES:

Batman #682 - 683 - Details Batman's ordeal and escape.

Do we know if these are all Dark Side Club tie-ins that are going to be coming out? If it's just these tie-ins I'll probably buy them but if they're going to go Countdown-crazy I won't bother...

I'm also wondering about the Teen Titans issues. Is the DSC just a sub-plot to the whole Clock King storyline and doesn't the Club appear in #60 at all?

And does the Club appear in all three issues of the Fast Money arc in Flash or just in #240?

Thanks for any answers!

[Seraku]

doesn't fast money go on till #243?

[Seraku]

damn double posts

So apparently Action Comics #866, which I think is the start of the big Brainiac arc, is the second(?) issue to have a Sightings banner. Has anybody read it? It doesn't tie in to Final Crisis at all, right?

It seems like they might just be using Sightings as a simple way to signify when new big storylines starts. Action Comics: start of Brainiac, Justice League #21: sort of the start of Final Crisis. But why not Batman RIP?

[Seraku]

the Terror Titans mini series will tie into Dark Side Club

[MasterChiefofComics]

the Terror Titans mini series will tie into Dark Side Club

Yeah it will

From what I recall, ACTION #866 had nothing to do with DSC or anything Final Crisis related whatsoever...

JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA No. 20 -- On Sale November 5, 2008

Quoted from

http://www.dccomics.com/dcu/comics/?cm=10375 (http://www.dccomics.com/dcu/comics/?cm=10375)

It's the Justice Society of America vs. the Justice Society Infinity of Earth-2 with the fate of Power Girl at the center of it all! Meanwhile, Starman struggles with his returned sanity as he embarks on his true mission in our time period – one that will have vital consequences for the Crisis of the 31st century!



(Thanks to "shaunofthedead" from the DC Boards for pointing out this LEGION OF THREE WORLDS tie-in.)

[Seraku]

add Green Lantern 36-38, the entire Red Lantern arc seems to be happening parallel

also the Rise of the Olympians arc (Wonder Woman 26-??) apparently involves the Society

[drinkblatzbeer]

shouldn't the Lightning saga from JLA/JSA be included, along with Action Comics #864 since both are pretty much the lead-ins to Legion of 3 Worlds???

[Paul Newell]

They're in the Countdown list.

[billbank]

They're in the Countdown list.
:eek:
where?

[Paul Newell]

Fifth thread down.

[drinkblatzbeer]

sure, but since countdown has been pretty much made moot, and the lightning saga itself is essentially a key part of the lead in the LO3W, couldn't we break nerd-code and put them on both lists??

[CYOTI]

Seven Soldiers - introduces Darkseid and the fate of the New Gods
52 - The introduction of the religion of crime.
The Lightning Saga - Reintroduces the very first Legion.
Four Horsemen - the fate of the Four Horsemen and reveals that Snapper is recruited by Checkmate.
Crime Bible - explores the Religion of Crime
Booster Gold - sequel to 52
JLA 21 - first reappearance of Libra.
Rock of Ages - details Darkseid's reign on Earth, a possible FC future.

so the only "DC sightings" so far has been the JLA #21?

has this thing died out or somethign?

[drinkblatzbeer]

so the only "DC sightings" so far has been the JLA #21?


also action comics #866 and new krypton #1 have the sightings tag...

supposedly reign in hell #4 is also supposed to have one, though i didn't look for it so not sure...

[CYOTI]

Sightings has nothing to do with Final Crisis. The Former has to do with major happenings going on. AC had brainiac, New Krypton was the first part of a crossover and RiH was Lobo in Hell.
