DC Comics 2023 News/General Discussion

[Hypo]

Really trying to sell people on Trinity.

Nah man, trying to capitalize on the early sales success of King's WW.

I’d be surprised if it wasn’t a Red Hood ongoing, given he wrote Jason is Task Force Z, The Joker, and then most recently wrote the Red Hood Gotham War tie-in. Suspect they’ll be a new wave of Bat-books being announced at the Gotham Panel.

Don't think it'll be a Red Hood ongoing, the unannounced Shawn Martinbrough Red Hood mini still needs to drop.

If digital copies don't abruptly play Wonder Woman's DCEU guitar riff when you get to this page then I'm not buying

[Frontier]

That's a good Arthur and Mera kiss .

To think this comic might be the last time we see DCEU Wonder Woman...

Aaron taking over Action Comics instead of Waid would be quite the curveball. Neither would excite me though. Can’t say I’m that enthusiastic, he’s been burnt out since the middle point of his Thor run. If he’s doing a Superman mini like his Batman one that’s fine however.

Rosenberg has stuff to announce at NYCC

Oh no. I hope it involves characters I don’t care about this time.

I'm amused Axelrod is in the Metropolis section considering her Hawkgirl book is only tangentially related to Superman by Hawkgirl being based in Metropolis for that book.

Oh, for godsake. We still are suffering the effects of the last Marvel burn out than jumped ship, precisely on SUperman when it was in a good moment.
I really hope you, Vordan, are right about the mini series possibility. Because if he lands on the regular series...

Maybe she has more work coming.

[Hypo]

Maybe she has more work coming.

She does have an unannounced project:

Jadzia Axelrod has unannounced DC work.

If Aaron was writing a Superman ongoing he would surely get the main book, not Action.

I think he recently said he isn't interested in writing ongoinga for now though. Most likely it's a black label book or something.

That would probably be for the best.

[OBrianTallent]

After the first two issues of Hawkgirl, Axelrod's name attached to anything is a guaranteed no sale for me, so hopefully whatever it is wont be a book or character I care about.

XD Lol I hate how much they hammered that into the movies, but now it's so bad that I kinda want it to never stop, no matter what movie Gal Gadot is in, or who plays Wonder Woman.

And they for some reason never used Hans Zimmer's more logical rewrite in WW84, where he used brass.
