DC Comics March Relaunch Speculation

[Goldrake]

At least with Rise of the Seven Seas the run ended in such a way that the cliffhanger wasn't a total swerve, even if now we'll never know what was going to happen with it other than bringing Queen Clea back.

.

He was taken off Aquaman by Didio. thats why there was never the rise of 7 seas.

[Jabare]

Do we know who is on the new Justice League?

[Goldrake]

Do we know who is on the new Justice League?

YES, its Bendis

[Jabare]

YES, its Bendis

sorry, I should have clarified. Do we know all the characters are on the roster?

I'm intrigued because it's Bendis and we all know his track record with Avengers

Superman, Batman, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Black Adam, Aquaman, Naomi, Hippolyta, and apparently a Flash but no detail on if that’s Barry, Wally, or someone else.

hmm Black Adam could be interesting, that's a very unusual choice. Naomi has a lot of potential as a fresh/new character. Will see what happens there. I don't get Hippolyta being on the team.

Other than that the team feels like standard leaguers. Outside of those 3 the team isn't jumping out at me too much. I'll wait and see how the three new leaguers are handled. Fingers crossed. I guess Wonder Woman not being on the team is kind of big too.

Where are you getting that there's a flash? I haven't seen an indication of that.

Also you're missing Hawkgirl.

[Digifiend]

He's named in the solicit. But yeah, we don't know who's behind the mask, because he's not on the cover.

Writer Brian Michael Bendis reunites with artist David Marquez (Miles Morales, Iron Man, Batman/Superman) for a new, star-studded Justice League featuring Superman, Batman, the Flash, Hawkgirl, Aquaman, Hippolyta, new DC powerhouse Naomi, and...is that Black Adam?! Superman is leading the charge to reinvent the Justice League—and at the same time, a new, cosmic-powered threat arrives from Naomi's homeworld to rule the Earth!
And in the backup story, dark days lie ahead for the new Justice League Dark. Zatanna and John Constantine take a road trip, only to discover horror around the bend as a friend—and sometime foe—is reborn in fire! A legend is destroyed, and another takes a terrible turn, as Merlin reveals the beginning of a new, blood-drenched plot for all humankind. So begins writer Ram V's new journey into the abyss with the Justice League Dark and artist Xermanico!

Ah. Being very coy there. Might end up being Wally then.

Considering how Bendis writes Barry, we might be better off if he's writing Wally.

[Jabare]

how many Flashes are there right now? Barry? Jay? Two Wallys? Bart still around? What about Jesse Quick and some other speedsters?

If we go by Infinite Frontier, a new one will be added soon.

Ah. Being very coy there. Might end up being Wally then.

Waid did mention several months ago that DC was eager to see Wally in his rightful place of prominence.

I still expect both Barry and Wally to be actively doing the Flash thing when all is said and done. But they're definitely playing it coy with Wally as even the Titans Academy writer said "it's complicated" about whether or not he would appear in the book.

how many Flashes are there right now? Barry? Jay? Two Wallys? Bart still around? What about Jesse Quick and some other speedsters?

Jay, Barry, Wally, Bart, Wallace, Jesse, Max, Iris, and Avery. There's also supposedly a new speedster in Titans Academy who I believe is part of Future State: Suicide Squad.

[Jabare]

wait, Iris? Iris West? Is she a speedster now? I'm not familiar with Avery

I hope not, this is like everyone on Hulk becoming a hulk
