Comic Timing Episode 272 – The New History of the DC Universe: Issue 1 Cover Breakdown, Part 2

We are back, concluding our epic breakdown of ALL the characters rendered on Scott Koblish’s variant cover to New History of the DC Universe issue 1. Murd and Ian are the crew for this one, beginning with the middle left portion of the cover and making their way right to get through the rest of it all. Any of you DC history buffs, you’re in for some treats! Not only are there plenty of characters you’ve probably never heard of, but there’s also Annie and Tin Tin rip-offs, a few animals, a few talking animals, and versions of characters you’d barely recognize based on what they look like today. History at its finest here! And here is a link to DC’s high resolution version of this cover that we used for the YouTube version of this episode.
