New 100-page giants launching in September.

[Digifiend]

$4.99, minimum 24 pages new material, and there's more than 11 titles in the line!


That explains the cancellations of Teen Titans Go and Scooby-Doo Team-Up.

What the heck is Ghosts?

Will these be USA only again?

They do look a great idea. I'd def buy Swampthing one

They will be available in two versions with different covers: Diamond accounts (comic shops) and mass market (regular retail). So i assume the comic shop version will be available internationally, with the retail version probably being USA only again.

Ghosts kind of sounds interesting to me. It's non-superhero stuff.

Sounds good... I loved the 100 page giants from the early/mid 1970’s, you’d get some great golden age reprints... Still got loads of them and will certainly have a look at these.

I will try adding to my pull list in UK and see what happens.

Yes Ghosts looks interesting too - will wait for press release to see what it is.

A good initiative

Having kid oriented 100 Page Giants like Scooby Doo and Teen Titans Go! makes a lot of sense, I imagine it's more appealing for parents to buy a comic for their kids that are slightly more expensive but have more pages.

"New to them" is a powerful selling point, especially for new readers. If "graphic novel" trades are increasing in value, a book like this could provide a cheaper introduction to a character and their stories. Gaining of new readers seems like a key objective for DC (and Marvel).

I thought DC ended its offering of non-comic book shop versions of single-issue comic books in general here in the U.S. a while ago?
Haven't seen any newsstand versions in a while, and those Walmart-only giant-size books weren't even offered in all Walmart locations.

(Also, if Scooby-Doo Team-Up is now cancelled, I might not be buying any new DC comic books any longer . . . )

They'll still be in Walmart like the previous set of 100 page giants, though you're right, everything I've heard says distribution was spotty, and I can't see it being any different this time. But now they'll also be in your LCS, and I assume digital as well.

Yeah, Scooby-Doo Team-Up ends in September. I bet it's been absorbed into this new Scooby-Doo 100 Page Comic Giant, along with Scooby's other book, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You.
