This week on The Legends of the DCU Podcast! Drew Leiter and Cletus Jacobs meet the King of Dreams as we discuss this week’s episode of The Sandman. Barry Allen’s past is revealed as he joins Elenore Thawne’s Project Olympus setting in motion the events that eventually create Wally West and the series’ central conflict in Absolute Flash #8. Diana teams up with Batman to investigate ritual murders in Gotham orchestrated by Veronica Cale and the Joker in Absolute Wonder Woman #15. Absolute Batman: Ark M Special #1 reveals the tragic, horror-filled origins of Arkham Asylum and its transformation into Ark M, showing how a well-intentioned institution was corrupted by the sinister influence of Jack Grimm (the Absolute Universe’s Joker) while setting up new threats for Batman. Diana, haunted by her temporary transformation into Medusa, embarks on a perilous quest to seek justice and redemption for Medusa herself in Absolute Wonder Woman 2026 Annual #1. All this plus, DC News, Shout Outs, and much, much more!
