Before March Solicitations Are Released, What Comics Do You Expect to See?

[kurenai24]

Thinking about all the interviews and the rumors and your own guesses, what comics do you expect to see in March.

My guesses:

Detective Comics
Batman
Second Tynion batman book
Nightwing
Batgirls
Red Hood or Red Hood & the Outlaws
Catwoman
Harley
Action Comics
Superman
Superboy
Supergirl or Superwoman
Wonder Woman
Wonder Girl aka Yara
Titans Academy
Suicide Squad
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps
The Flash
Justice League
Justice League Dark
Legion of Superheroes

-----

Some other comics I think are coming but am not sure about (but could possibly come down later in 2021) is:

Something with the New Gods.
Another Outsiders book...
Tim led book.
Teen Titans and/or Young Justice book
A Shazam and/or Black Adam book
Something with Nubia.
The rumored Superman & The Authority book.
Rumored Batman and Robin book.
Birds of Prey, Gotham City Sirens and Grifters (from Future State), and maybe another team book and another green lantern one are comics I'm even more unsure about.

I remember earlier this year, while I was reading new solicitations, I counted how many DC related comics were being published and it was over 50, so with the rumors of them publishing less comics, I think I kept this under 35, plus some of these could be minis, maxis, limited, or digital runs.

I think something with the New Gods would make sense given the Jog reveal in suicide squad this week and Mister Miracle popping up in Future State. Batgirls makes sense too given all the lead-up for them and their presence in Future State. a longer form Vixen series, again, would make sense given the movie rumors, her popping up in Future State, and the reception to her leading the first story in Truth & Justice. This may be wishful thinking but I think something for Duke could be on the horizon too because he appears to be on a bit of a roll lately; he just wrapped up with Outsiders, his story in Robin King was received more favorably than the main story (at least from what i've seen), he had a little cameo in Death Metal, he has a starring role in Tales from the Dark Multiverse: Metal, and he's also popping up in Future State too.


I'm not sure how i feel about the odds of another Outsiders book but I would want to see a Black Lightning book.

Didn't follow Suicide Squad, who is Jog and what was revealed?

Jog is a Speedster who turns out to be Black Racer's kid.

No Aquaman?

Green Lantern will be an April launch by the way, Morrison's GL season 2 #11 was solicited for February.

[Frontier]

I honestly don't know what my expectations are with all the shakeups at DC and the rumored move away from mainstream ongoings.

yeah that's a strange omission now that you mention it. I feel like Aquaman is at the point where he's a must-print title like Green Lantern or Batman or Wonder Woman.

It’s honestly plain disrespectful to list off red hood and catwoman and not list Aquaman

[Artemisfanboy]

Here are the Ongoing titles from December that will be returning in march as none of them were solicited as having their final issues.

1. The Flash
2. Aquaman
3. Justice League
4. Justice League Dark
5. Batman
6. Wonder Woman
7. Action Comics
8. Superman
9. Batman/Superman
10. Catwoman
11. Detective Comics
12. Legion of Superheroes.
13. Nightwing
14. Red Hood

As of December, only Batman, Wonder Woman and Justice League are bi weekly. Flash was double shipping as of november though.

As for how many titles I think we can expect to see from DC, Future State has 23 individual titles, most of them monthly. With only Batman and Dark Detective double shipping with four issues. (Imperius Lex is an outlier having three issues shipping two in one month). In generally I think it can be used as a measuring on guessing the overall size of the line, either in number of titles(23) or individual issue output(31). It's probably the best ball park range we can probably guess. I also don't know how fast or to what extent DC may adopt the anthology format used by some of the FS books.

Morrison's Green Lantern will conclude in March. So we'll be getting a new title or titles either then or in April.

I'm really hoping we get our post-doomsday clock JSA relaunch. The delaying and dragging their feet with them has been frustrating. The JSA has Stargirl and Black Adam and a animated film are in the pipeline. It's time to bring them back in full already.

Titans is definitely being set up for a relaunch with Dick's team mentoring Damian's former team.

Bendis claims his Leviathan sequel will happen at some point with some alterations. I'm guessing either in spring or summer.

Joelle Jones might be either on Wonder Woman or doing a Wonder Girl series with Yara.

Other than that there are some safe guesses. Batgirls, Supergirl, Harley Quinn, Suicide Squad, Shazam, Black Adam, Green Arrow. Major heroes with multimedia presence.

I was slightly disappointed the Super-Sons series isn't part of the relaunch and in the present, but I'm happy we're getting it and hoping it will lead to Jon's age up being undone and getting Super-Sons back in the present main continuity.

[Lee Stone]

I expect-

Batman
Detective Comics
Legend of the Dark Knight
Superman
Action Comics
Wonder Woman
Sensation Comics
Justice League (with or without ‘International’)
Titans (using the older comic versions of the Teen Titans Go team as a basis)
Flash
Green Arrow
Supergirl
Aquaman
Suicide Squad
Doom Patrol
Batwoman

[CaptCleghorn]

I've seen Legion 0f Super-Heroes mentioned a couple of times and the "to be concluded" blurb at the end of the latest issue screams DONE and calling the series at twelve issues. But there are the two Future State issus of Legion. Are they meant as an epilogue to the Bendis run, or are they a sign that there will be more of the Bendis version even if a different writer takes over?

With no evidence to support a conjecture, I do not feel there will be a Legion of Super-Heroes 13 in March. There MAY be a new Legion/Legion of Super-Heroes/LSH #1 then, though. I AM fairly confident that DC has a darn good idea what they'll be doing with the Legion next March, though.

[Twice-named]

I expect-

Batman
Detective Comics
Legend of the Dark Knight
Superman
Action Comics
Wonder Woman
Sensation Comics
Justice League (with or without ‘International’)
Titans (using the older comic versions of the Teen Titans Go team as a basis)
Flash
Green Arrow
Supergirl
Aquaman
Suicide Squad
Doom Patrol
Batwoman

Do you expect a Ryan Wilder or Kate Kane Batwoman series?

I very much doubt Jon is gonna be de-aged, I see Damian being aged up over that. I expect a Superboy book too.

Jon being aged up has no bearing on Super Sons, the book could still happen, it's just the stories would all take place in the past.

I've made my opinions quite clear on this, I disliked the idea of Jon being aged up to begin with, and I absolutely hate the mechanism by which it was accomplished, with Jon being tortured on Earth 3 for seven years from 10-17 and find intolerable. I've decided that in order for me to come back to the Superman books, they will need to fix and give Jon back those stolen years, preferably by rescuing his younger self from Earth 3. I don't care if they put Mark Waid or whoever on the Superman books. I'm not picking them up until Jon is fixed. I'm standing my ground on this and going to keep fighting.

Challenge is nice, and I'm thankful for it, and I'll get it. But I won't accept that Jon's main canon future fate is to be tortured for the entirety of his pre-teen and teen years. It needs to be undone and fixed. Similarly, I don't just want Super-Sons to become an alternate continuity thing while the main version of Jon keeps this as his canon fate.
