## Resource

Jace and Rocky discuss a smaller fifth-week DC lineup for April 29, 2026, opening with a remembrance of Gerry Conway before diving into Swamp Thing 1989 #1 and the long-delayed Rick Veitch controversy surrounding Swamp Thing's encounter with the life of Jesus, Justice League Intergalactic Special #1 and its focus on Galaxy, Dreamer, Naltor, and the setup for more Pride-related storytelling, Batman/Wonder Woman: Truth #1 with Jeff Loeb and Jim Cheung delivering a visually strong but continuity-light Batman/Wonder Woman one-shot involving Catwoman, Harley Quinn, Joker, and the Lasso of Truth, and Zatanna #1 as Jamal Campbell positions Zatanna as the Prime Magus of the DC Universe while introducing new occult agency elements. They also cover the week's reprints, facsimiles, and collected editions, including Absolute Batman, Absolute Wonder Woman, Absolute Superman, Teen Titans by Geoff Johns, Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong, DC Finest: Joker, and The Omega Men deluxe edition. As always, Jace and Rocky rank every book and each host gives their top pick of the week.
