    Default Why does Super Sons...

    Have a blue "1" on the first issue as opposed to the other rebirth titles which are all standard black issue numbers?

    Because its special and blue is more appealing to young readers then black, or something like that.

    Really? Aesthetics can NOT be the only reason.

    Maybe because of the second wave of Rebirth.

    If it sells more copies ergo more money, then sure. Batwoman Rebirth #1 and JLA Rebirth #1 seem to be sticking to standard black.

    Of course, there's also the chance that DC just accidentally colored it blue same as the DC logo and they left it like that because it's already gone to printing and it's too late to change the issue number to black.

    There was a shortage of black ink at the printers that day.
    I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
    A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:

    Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
    Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

    Not the ones released by DC. Both Dustin Nguyen and ComicsPRO variants have blue #1.
