DC Relaunching Everything? - Part 1

[Doc Phosphorus]

So Superman's legs got run over by a Kryptonite bus and now he has to wear prosthetics, right?

I mean, they wouldn't just arbitrarily put a bunch of lines and detail on his legs if it didn't represent something, right?

RIGHT?

 

[Tron Bonne]

Very wrong. The age of irrelevant seams is here.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Karas new design is U.G.L.Y. her previous one was better and more "hip"

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Ugh. Power Girl is gone isn't she?

 

[Tron Bonne]

She'll probably still be in the universe, but I'll be pretty surprised if she still has a book, though. I'm surprised she's had a book as long as she has now. However, if both of the unknown books are Super-titles....it could be. Just doubtful.

 

[Llama_Shepherd]

What about the JSA?

 

[HamelinGraphix]

Seems like they'll have a different S shield for each character. Superman has one with a S that finishes squared, Supergirl is pointy and Superboy has the traditional rounded tail.

 

[Tron Bonne]

What about the JSA?

Nothing has been said about them, yet.

 

[Mystirious]

Also, for everyone who wants to keep up with it, here's a list of all the officially released titles, their creative teams, and whatever covers have been released. According to their list, which seems to be accurate, we have six reveals left. Three of those are the Super titles above that covers were leaked, and the fourth is definitely Action Comics. I wonder what the other two will be. I hope for Thunder Agents and Xombi, but my breath is not being held.

I am definitely going to buy Batwoman, Stormwatch and the Legion of Superheroes series that is being written by Paul Levitz and Justice League DARK

I think I will also check out Birds of Prey and Catwoman and Batgirl. And the Demon Knights series too maybe

 

[Dwarf lord]

What about the JSA?

I'm holding out a little hope. I've been hoping they would have a reboot for a while now. The team was just too large that there was no character development long term. Hopefully we can get a team of 7-8 and work around that. Maybe with the Golden Agers being support.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

No information on the Marvel family whatsoever. I do wonder if we'll get Captain Thunder in the mainstream or atleast the name change, even Morrison's Captain Marvel Multiversity issue will be called Thunderworld.

Thanks. If any group of characters could benefit from a total relaunch, it's them.

 

[TheIncredibleSk]

If Morrison is on Superman their won't be a JSA. They'll be mentors to Clark.

 

[Tron Bonne]

If all the reveals left are Super-titles (not confirmed or anything, just speculating), I'm thinking one of the two will be Adventure Comics. They went through the trouble of bringing it back and renumbering it, so I won't be surprised if they keep that. If my hopes are met, and Action Comics will still be Cornell, maybe the other one will be the Morrison Superman book, which will be kind of its own thing.

 

[Mystirious]

Seams are the new pouches

Ugh. Power Girl is gone isn't she?

She may still have a comic book after the relaunch Bill

 

[X Knight]

Kara's new costume does give off a Power Girl-type vibe.

 

[Primal Slayer]

They shouldve just made Supergirl Red and Gold. She doesnt need blue just because she is Supes cousin.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I'm more curious to see how the current DCU "ends". Is SBP gonna retcon punch the readers?

 

[Pyro Man]

Thanks. If any group of characters could benefit from a total relaunch, it's them.

A Captain Marvel family book was one of the ones I was hoping we'd here about but evidently characters like Batwing and Hawk and Dove having series was more of a priority

 

[Tron Bonne]

It'll end with Flashpoint, so it'll probably be something like Flash reversing that but still causing some big changes by doing so, or some ****.

 

[X Knight]

I actually think Kara's suit would have been "perfect" if they just gave her full pants. or at least keep the skirt.

There's still time

Makes sense

Just saw Supergirl and Superman's new costumes. Why the emphasis on armor all of a sudden? Deathstroke looks like he's ready to fight orcs and dragons too.

 

[Primal Slayer]

I agree. Having that random red area by her youknowwhat just draws more attention.

Apparently that's what's hip nowadays.

 

[Matt.S99]

I actualy really like Karas new look. It feels alot more alien like than anything she's ever worn. Superman just sucks. I actually don't mind the high collar but the the lower half makes him look like a robot.

 

[X Knight]

I do kind of like the "armor" look on Kara.

I still can't figure out Superboy............is he a cyborg now or something?
