DC July 2006 Solicitations

[Binker]

DC has released their solicitations for July 2006. Some delays (All Star Batman #5 and Supergirl #8, what were the odds?!), fans rejoice (cover to Detective #821, wherer Dini will start his arc), and some questions too (a female Nightwing?). Take a look:

[The Batman]

The fact that Rags is no longer on Tec has pretty much taken most of the excitement for dini's run out of me...

 

[Superman \S/]

Superman/Action Comics looks great. Though i thought Adam Kubert was supposed to take over as artist? No matter, it looks awesome.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Is the JSA comic ending? Its solicitation makes it sound like it is, but I hoped it was just referring to that arc.

On a happier note, it looks like Churchill is not drawing Supergirl anymore. Now I can read it and see whether Rucka will make her a decent character.

it's made me much, much happier...and I was already pretty happy to being with


J.H. Williams III is one of the top artists in comic books

As much as I'm looking forward to Ion, I really really really really really really really really really really really hope that it doesn't turn out to be like Supergirl where Kyle fights some heroes every month. Well, to be fair it looks like he's only fighting heroes two months out of four, so he's not quite at her level yet.

And oh fck yes Black Adam is gettin' it on with freakin' Isis from the Shazam!/Isis Hour. Good fancy cheesiness to the max. I love you DC! Please don't kill Black Adam.

 

[Lackey]

I love this cover

 

[BrianWilly]

Spectre's black, Blue Beetle's Latino, and now we get an Asian Atom...it looks like DC's using this whole CRISIS REVAMP!! thingy to really up their racial ratio.

Quick, kids! Say "racial ratio" three times fast!

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, but in the Atom's case, it seems like they just phoned it in. At least the new Beetle and Spectre are significantly different from the previous versions (ok, not as significantly in Spectre's case). The "new" Atom is a scientist and has Ray's old job.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

the new atom is asian? lame. but what was wrong with the old atom?

 

[Superman \S/]

I love this cover

All Star Supes just gets better and better. I'm liking the cover.

 

[Superman \S/]

the new atom is asian? lame.

Yep he's Asian. Check my thread, i made a thread about the new series.

 

[Fledermaus]

Now this should be interesting. Given that Owens been working with Robin "big brother" for the past year.

 

[Nightwing 52]

All Star Supes just gets better and better. I'm liking the cover.

If only All Star Batman & Robin could do the same.

 

[The Batman]

Morrison and Kubert start on Batman. I cant wait. And JLA Zero will have some kickass art....

 

[Nightwing 52]

Morrison and Kubert start on Batman. I cant wait. And JLA Zero will have some kickass art....

Not to mention two covers by Adam and Andy Kubert.

​

I'm really looking forward to this arc, especially how we'll start seeing alot more of Bruce Wayne.​

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Newsarama botched the links on the alternate Batman cover by Adam Kubert. Anyone have a link to another website that has it?

[TheCorpulent1]

Sweet, thanks. I prefer Andy's. I've always found Andy just a hair's breadth better than Adam.

 

[Nightwing 52]

That cover is incredible, I prefer Andy's though.

 

[KingOfDreams]

the new atom is asian? lame.

What's lame about that?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The Asianness of it, duh.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

The Asianness of it, duh.
