Warning! Spoilers for Earth-Prime #6: Hero's Twilight by DC Comics
DC Comics just revealed an iconic villain who will make their debut in The CW's Arrowverse in a brand new comic book crossover, as Magog will take on Superman & Lois, Batwoman, and more heroes in the epic Earth-Prime finale. On Wednesday, DC revealed the Kingdom Come and Justice Society of America villain will take on the greatest heroes in the CW Universe in a story from Jeff Hersh, Thomas Pound, and Will Robson.
Magog is one of the most powerful villains in the DC Comics universe, first appearing in Mark Waid and Alex Ross's epic Kingdom Come miniseries. Magog can harness plasma energy through his staff, which can cause some serious damage. The half-blind villain can also channel infrared vision while serving as a false idol of sorts as he wants to overtake Superman. In Kingdom Come, he kills the Joker while turning the world against the Man of Steel, adopting "The New Man of Tomorrow" moniker. However, after Captain Atom explodes in a fight alongside Magog and kills millions, several heroes would rise again to bring him to justice.
Magog will be making his debut in The CW's Arrowverse in the grand finale of their Earth-Prime comic book crossover at DC Comics. The hero will emerge from across time to try to usher in a new age of peace without superheroes, as he wants to make society reach its true potential by eliminating "heroes." That means Magog will cross paths with Superman & Lois, Batwoman, the Legends of Tomorrow, and possibly more heroes from the Arrowverse. Check out Kim Jacinto's Magog-starring cover for Earth-Prime #6: Hero's Twilight by Jeff Hersh, Thomas Pound, and Will Robson.
Magog made a secret cameo in the first issue of The CW's Arroverse crossover, as he was seen manipulating villains behind the scenes, freeing Clayface from his imprisonment from Batwoman. Each issue of Earth-Prime will feature Magog recruiting villains to his fight against Superman & Lois, Batwoman, and the rest of the heroes in the universe.
The Earth-Prime comic book crossover from DC Comics is currently underway, as Batwoman: Earth-Prime arrived is in comic book stores and online retailers this week. Earth-Prime crossovers starring Superman and Lois, Legends of Tomorrow, Stargirl, and The Flash will come out over the next two months. Magog will make his full presence known in the Arroverse's crossover finale, Earth-Prime: Hero's Twilight, which is currently scheduled for a June 21, 2022 release.
