Absolute Evil Is DC’s First Absolute Universe Crossover


October 2025 marks the one-year anniversary of DC’s hugely successful Absolute Universe line. To celebrate the occasion, DC is giving readers the first proper Absolute Universe crossover in the form of Absolute Evil #1. This universe may not have a Justice League, but it looks to be gaining its own version of the Legion of Doom.

Each of DC’s Absolute titles in October will be extremely important to the future of this shared universe, with key developments like Superman’s showdown with Ra’s al Ghul and the debut of Absolute Catwoman. Read on to see all of the Absolute books releasing in October 2025 and why they’re so important.
