Zatara

Action Comics number one is also notable for a few other things.

It was the first appearance of Zatara, the superhero stage magician who practices real magic.

Oh, and it also featured the first depiction of Superman, I guess, if that's what you're into.

And it is what a lot of people are into, to the point where prices for Action Comics number one are...

by the end of the issue after a atomic kick by ray palmer he kind of alludes to this but we'll probably get in the next issue what else what else what else jeff lemire further like world builds by connecting stories from absolute wonder woman and absolute superman the last issue we got fawn and like the control pit you know controlling the attack on the city right behind her is brainiac and then we have you know who's attacking the city It's Abracadabra, who makes reference to Absolute Wonder Woman.

What's it? Who's the other magician? Satana's Zatara.

There we go.

So that's cool.

And like, it's funny how like, they'll show you like a definition of something.

Also Giovanni Zatara is in this for a second.

Um, So looking forward to whatever that's going to be, because it's going to be a problem for one of the characters for sure.

Sure.

And he goes off and he ends up abducting another person that we find out is a mathematician that has figured out this equation.

And that gets intercut with our little sidekick kid who ends up in this elevator and he ends up in front of Giovanni Zatara.

Right.

And Giovanni Zatara is like, oh, the kid's like, you're not supposed to be here.

And Zatara is like, you know, you are.

I summoned you.

Of course, why would you? He's like yours.

And he goes, we're witnessing the next movement of a dance whose participants took each other's hands long ago.
