What Is DC’s Summer 2024 Event?

This summer, DC will present Absolute Power, a crossover event that began in DC’s Free Comic Book Day preview. The storyline will consist of a four-issue miniseries from Mark Waid and Dan Mora, as well as a number of spinoffs and tie-in issues published across June and July.

Absolute Power shows how Waller will use the strategic and military might of Failsafe and the otherworldly technology of the Brainiac Queen to steal all metahuman abilities from every super hero and super-villain around the globe, a threat so dire it will take the combined efforts of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and the Super Heroes of the DC Universe to defeat it.

Absolute Power has been teased across the Dawn of DC initiative for several months, teasing a “Trinity of Evil” that will make a profound impact on the DC Universe. As we now know, this “Trinity” will consist of Batman’s recent foe Failsafe, the recent Action Comics adversary Brainiac Queen, and Amanda Waller.
