The Final Night is a 1996 DC crossover storyline where heroes must save Earth from an alien entity, the Sun-Eater, which threatens to engulf the sun, plunging the planet into eternal winter. This dramatic tale blends superhero action with human emotion and highlights the importance of unity in the face of catastrophe. Written by Karl Kesel and illustrated by Stuart Immonen, it serves as both a gripping disaster narrative and a pivotal moment in the DC Universe.

In today's episode, we dive into the nitty-gritty of the DC Kickstarter campaign—what’s working, what’s not, and whether this bold move by DC is shaking up the comic book world or just adding noise. Then, we’ll roll up our sleeves and dissect the "DC All In" and "Absolute Universe" initiatives—two ambitious projects redefining how we experience DC’s iconic characters. But that's just the warm-up.

Today I wanted to talk a little more about the kickstarter and what to expect or at least what I expect from it, and talk about why this game is fun.

“The Legend Returns!

DC Heroes is an innovative and award-winning role-playing game that was first published in 1985. It allows you and your friends to take on the roles of iconic Super Heroes like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Cyborg, or to create heroes of your own. The object of the game is to create brand-new stories pitting these heroes against The Joker, Lex Luthor, Brainiac, Sinestro, or any of the hundreds of other villains who threaten the DC Universe!

Over eight years of product releases, DC Heroes produced dozens of adventures and sourcebooks, many featuring contributions from some of DC’s finest writers and artists of the 1980s—Jack Kirby, Alan Moore, Denny O’Neil, George Perez, John Byrne, and many others. Thousands of gamers and comics fans are still playing DC Heroes even though it’s been unavailable for decades. To celebrate DCH’s 40th anniversary, we’re reprinting the line in definitive archival editions. Whether you’ve never experienced DCH before or you’re a long-time fan looking to plug the holes in your collection, we’ve got you covered.”
