Gail Simone on the Flash? Thank you. I've wanted this for years.

Titans is just Teen Titans rebranded with the exact same content. Synergy with the streaming TV series, I imagine. Wonder Woman is a rebranded Justice League of America. JL and Aquaman are still there but WW reprints (she already starred in the new material) replaces Flash - who you forgot to mention is moving to his own title.

The new lineups seem to be:
Flash: Flash, Adam Strange, Shazam
Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman, Justice League, Aquaman
Titans: Teen Titans, Sideways, Super Sons
Swamp Thing: Swamp Thing, Animal Man, Shadowpact
Batman: Batman, Harley Quinn, Nightwing
Superman: Superman, Green Lantern, Terrifics

I'm stoked to see Gail Simone on the Flash. I might actually drive up to a Walmart to get one of those now.

Well, that didn't last long. The Walmart line is cancelled.

I think a general release is probably more advisable then just having them in Walmart, but I'm not business expert.

The current books are done. Future Giants will be 48 pages of new material, 52 pages of reprints and ads.

Does this mean the February issues are the last ones to be only at Walmart? Isn't the Superman arc supposed to be 12 issues long?

Yeah, I think they're onto something with the larger size books geared towards new readers, but the Walmart exclusivity had too much opposition.
Being exclusive isn't a good idea, unless that exclusivity is through comic shops. Lol.

If they're axed with immediate effect, then you'll be forced to double dip to see the rest of them, by buying the trade.

[Flash Gordon]

Tim Seely AND Joelle Jones on Swamp Thing? That's an instant buy for me.

Once it's being sold somewhere besides Wal-Mart. I can wait.

In case people were misinterpreting the Walmart exclusive line ending because it was a failure, DC has stated many times how successful it was, and Didio reconfirmed that on his Facebook today (

So they did well. Unless they get these new trades in non comic shops nothing will come from killing them as it was to get non comic readers to read comics.

Didio spins everything into a positive. It's his job.

I doubt it, the quotes say "later this year."

"Wallmart"?



Is this what Trump is talking about when he says he wants to "build the wall"?
