ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Welcome to the start of DC’s All In era — and the birth of the Absolute Universe. In this episode, we do a canon-accurate, spoiler-filled breakdown of DC All In Special #1, explaining exactly how it sets up DC’s main continuity moving forward and establishes the Absolute Universe as a separate track. Then we cover the first wave of #1s—Absolute Batman, Absolute Wonder Woman, and Absolute Superman—what changes in each origin, what stays true to the core of the characters, and why the “less advantage, greater opposition” premise hits so hard right now.
