DC Comics 2024 News/General Discussion

[Leancarp900]

Bleeding Cool says there still isn't a Batman editor and that previous talks fell through. The problem being that most qualified people for the job are located in New York while DC is located in Burbank.

Also that Batman #150 isn't coming out until September (to coincide with the end of Taylor's Nightwing and V's Tec?). Seems like the Absolute Power tie-ins might be replacing the Batman/Superman/WW books. At least it's not the whole line this time I guess.

It feels like there hasn't functionally been an editor for the Bat books since Conroy left anyway.

[HsssH]

Requirements don't sound very high considering that this is Batman.

Where's her totem? I wonder if he just missed it and it will be added in another sketch or if her powers are internalized for this story. (do we know if this is an Elseworlds?)

Also, I guess nobody likes her original hair.

Her original look doesn't look recognisable honestly. Long hair, mask, costume that isn't mostly yellow. She looks more like Pantha from 90s New Titans than Vixen!

Action Comics #521 cover, if you can't see it.

Sad thing is his most work on DC won't sniff a trade because of the writer.

Green Lantern, vol. 3, #13–17, 19, #25–31, 33–35, 38–39, 41–43, 46, 132–133, Special #2, 80-Page Giant #2 (1991–2001)
Green Lantern Corps Quarterly #1–3 (1992)
Green Lantern: Emerald Dawn, miniseries, #1–6 (1989–90)
Green Lantern: Emerald Dawn II, miniseries, #1–6 (1991)

Gerard Jones, right? Yeah, his stuff's been banned by the publisher unfortunately, that's why two issues are missing from the upcoming Amalgam reprints.

Strangely, DC is still reprinting some of his work in a JLI omnibus, and I believe Marvel is doing the same for his Wonder Man series. Maybe it's just that the Amalgam book has a higher profile.

Anything that's primarily Jones' work can probably be written off, though, but there might be enough of Bright's work with Priest on GL for a collection.

No Wildstorm characters are known as of now. But there will be a lot of books if the list leaked is correct so could happen.

Um, I wonder if Tom King will be behind the WW tie-ins. Seems like it's going to interrupt the current climax of his second arc, so I hope it doesnt end on a cliffhanger that leaves me starving for 3 months, lol

It would be absolutely idiotic of DC to interrupt Wonder Woman when it's finally selling well. So I'm sure they will do just that.
The only thing I could see is if they tie it to Sovereign which would make sense seeing as Waller is working for him.
