DC Future State

[Iconic]

Does anyone know who the black man with the sword is?

Also while this looks interesting I also feel like we’re about to get a bunch of incomplete stories because this was clearly supposed to be the start of something bigger.’

That would be Jonathan Stewart.

[Sacred Knight]

I'm halfway glad that Power Girl isn't part of this at all; but also partway irked that even here, PG isn't part of the Superman Family as DC sees it.

This really is par for course. Ever since the Crisis PG has always been treated as rather independent of the Superman mythos. Sporadically certain creators have tried to include her, but it never seems to stick.

So, I'm I the only one confused by how this is the "future" and we have older characters, but some characters havent aged? Like the Aquawoman in JL, isn't she currently a child? Given, I haven't read Aquaman, but from what I read she's a child still currently, unless I'm wrong.

Rather interesting event, but I'm only really interested in the Justice League title due to Jo and Justice League Dark. I'll pick up the Batman one too, cause of Gotham City Sirens.

[Sacred Knight]

It might be that there's different potential futures depending on the title?

I mean, in Diana's title, it looks like Clark, Bruce, and Hal are dead but Kal-El is very much alive in his book, just off-planet and handing off the mantle.

the stories cover an extended period of time that starts around 2030 and stretches from there. Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and Superman all take place around the beginning of that time scale and the Justice League title is a few years later. so Andy is an early teen in Aquaman but grows up to inherit the Aqua mantle from Jackson by the time of Justice League.

Ah! Thank you! I wonder how these will effect the main titles in April then.

Elsewhere, someone speculated this was a castoff from the previous regime.

There is absolutely no doubt about that: it even confirms lots of stuff BC posted about as far back as a year, a year and a half.

Still, if they had the time to repurpose so much, so much, someone, somewhere should just have gone:" you know what, let's leave Wally alone for now."

[dornwolf]

Hmm. I see. This still makes me wonder where our new Aquaman is.

Neptune. The solicits say that Jackson is taking care of Arthur and Meras daughter as Aquaman and they get separated. Going off the Justice League cover and I'd say Andy goes through a time skip similar to what Jon went through she takes over as Aquawoman and Jackson is trapped in jail on Neptune for what sounds like 5 years.

[H-E-D]

The art on this looks way better than DC's usual fare.

[Frontier]

Vixen looking a little light-skinned (that is Vixen, right?).

I don’t think it’s short for anything, that’s just her name.

You'd think the scion of land and sea would have a more relevant and poignant name than "Andy."

Like, name her after Atlanna or something.

Maybe the Flash book needs to take all the Speedsters out so Future Slate Flash is the only Speedster.

[Korath]

Welp. Just when I expected it the least, a huge list of new comics has prepared a raid on my bank account it seems.

A lot of those seems interesting enough to try and grab them, and even those which don't interest me will have readers I hope.

Plus it'll be short and contained so it could be used to test some waters and see how things are received I guess.

Just so long as it only lasts for the month or so and they build on Speed Metal when things are back to normal. I will skip it anyway.

Sure. GL did the same thing. But the “how” of it here is iffy.

After reading some speculation on Twitter, I'm going keep my eye out on the possibility that Future State will be back as an imprint in the future.

That's my guess. If any of these sell strong enough we'll see a couple of books.
