Holy ****. I hope this is true! Basically do the New 52 right this time lol. Wouldn’t put it past Snyder to write Batman again, but maybe he’ll do Superman or Wonder Woman? Lord save me if Taylor is on Superman.

Here comes DCU synergy.
But I guess it's just the new imprint, they won't reboot the entire line.

[Last Son of Krypton]

It's going to be DC's "Snyderverse"

[Vordan]

Williamson is introducing a “Brainiac Queen” and Superman 10 will start a Western arc that brings back an old Superman Rogue (its 100% Terra-Man).




Looks like Redondo is permanently moving to Superman from Nightwing.

So another reboot is coming.

No they describe it like the Ultimate Universe. It would stand alongside the main Earth 0 line without replacing it.

If this thing kicks off by 2025, I bet it's going to resemble DCU and that's going to their attempt to grab the new audience.

They mention that it will use lots of classic continuity, that describes DC's style of rebooting very well.

Man I was hoping for a reboot lol

[Mantis-Ray]

An Ultimate Universe isn't really a reboot.

Its just an ongoing AU-verse alongside the main continuity.

Of all people. Jesus. His last several years at DC were a fucking disaster.

At least it's not Johns, I guess? Lol.

No mention of the Clayton Henry book, so that’s gotta be with Waid. Initially I thought it had to be set in the modern day, but if it’s not Action then I think it will be a World’s Finest: Superman book in a similar vein to the Titans book. Set in the past to let Waid play in the status quo he prefers. Would Waid be involved in Snyder’s Ultimate DC? I’m sure he’d love to do a Superman book where he could kill the Kents lol.

In the sense of retelling old stories with a modern spin, same way Bendis retold the Clone Saga or Peter wearing the symbiote suit for the first time. It’s not a reboot if it’s set in a different universe.

Do you think that Snyder is going to retell all his stories and stuff like Batman Year One again? Or will he just build the universe around such stories?

[Morgoth]

Batman is actually a really big problem here, because there are dozens stories about his first years, some of which are really essential, and I clearly don't know what else can be told about that.
