Have you ever wanted to know the history of Arm-Fall Off Boy, or wondered why the first Red Tornado was a geriatric lady with a pan on her head? James Gunn has unveiled a brand new book about the weirdest heroes across the DC Multiverse!
It’s no secret that James Gunn is a fan of the wacky and weird corners of comic books, with The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker pulling obscure DC Comics characters, from Bloodsport to Weasel. Fans will finally get a peek into the mind of the co-chair of DC Studios with an upcoming book entitled Strange and Unsung All-Stars of The DC Multiverse, which chronicles the forgotten and outlandish characters fans love:
Strange and Unsung All-Stars of The DC Multiverse, written by Stephanie Williams with a foreward by James Gunn, seems to be written in the vein of Jon Morris’ League of Regrettable Superheroes series, though with a heavier focus on DC Comics. With the Creature Commandos on the front of the page, it’s likely this book may give fans hints to what characters may appear in the future of the DC Universe, so it may be wise to pre-order it today!
