DC Next Dawn Bullpen

I doubted myself but I was actually able to get in Outsiders & Teen Titans! My eyes are still fucked up (apparently 2-3 months for that to self correct) but hopefully I can read all the other submissions at least by the end of november!

Gonna be late again this month, sorry! Unexpected Halloween happenings were thrust upon me.

Halloween gets the best of all of us at times! No worries.

You are the hero we need. Speedy recovery, my friend.

Just to double check Billy Batson is not claimed by anybody?

Just to double check Billy Batson is not claimed by anybody?

Indeed, he’s up for grabs!

[Exciter]

So, next month’s solicitations will be posted in the month of December. You know what that means, right?

NEXT DAWN HOLIDAY SPECIAL #2!

That’s right! As in the past, it will be an anthology one-shot of various stories from our characters with a holiday theme - Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Winter Solstice, Pancha Ganapati, Bodhi Day, Boxing Day, Yule, Saturnalia, Festivus, the New Year, and whatever else!

If you would like to participate (no pressure, no pressure), send in a short solicitation for inclusion in the book - and since its a holiday, you can go crazy! In-continuity, out of continuity, its a celebration!

And in the spirit of giving, all participants will get an extra reward point for their main titles! Ho ho ho!!!

Just barrrrrely got my solicit for Legends of the Multiverse in. No solicit for DC Extended Universe...ok, so here is what I'm thinking on that book. I started it because I wanted to do stories that continued the DCEU through a hypothetical JL2 eventually, based on things Snyder had revealed in interviews about where his story was heading. This plan of mine was almost a year before he announced he was actually going to release his version of Justice League. If it's ok with everyone, I would very much like to go on hiatus with the DCEU book until after the Snyder Cut comes out (I've heard March/April, but no release date yet). I just have a feeling a lot of the ideas I wanted to go with will be made moot by his cut, and my plot will look silly in context.

If this means forfeiting the reward points on that book as well, then I understand. But I will definitely be interesting in soft-relaunching that title after the Snyder Cut drops.

Question and holiday stories are in, albeit a few minutes late. It's a Christmas Miracle!

Personally, I'm thinking that your plots will be better than whatever Snyder is concocting lol. Didn't he want both Marthas to turn out to be the same person?

Nonetheless, understandable that you'd like to hiatus the book. We can hold it and the points in reserve for as long as you'd like.

Of course, you've got the points to launch another book in the interim if you so desire. Miniseries or ongoing. Always love seeing your creativity let loose!

I find these threads amazing in that we actually get an idea (faint, yes) of what comic writing is really like. We experience burnout, switches in what we expected, and dealing with others' plans as well. I love that we all are enamored of our solicits and really get into this. The search for quality is truly something we can be proud of here.

It's your book, do with it as you will and it'll be great. I look fprward to your next iteration.

At least there's no editorial meddling or forced corporate cross-platform synergy.
