Interestingly, there are no ALL-STAR, LEGENDARY CREATOR type announces, it is going to hurt, surpsingly small amount of Geoff Johns also. A lot of old farts and Lobdell :barf:

I dunno, I feel like Hitch doing a Justice League book is the Big Blockbuster Book announcement that's gonna sell by the truckload, but DC's thrown it in the middle of every other piece of news because I guess unlike Marvel they don't know how to milk announcements for all they're worth (which to be honest I'm thankful for).

Not drawn by Miller/Varley, co-loving-written with DC staffers, movie tie-in - not real Dark Knight.

That's what makes it sound good

I am so in on Midnighter.

I love how by the third panel of the preview they just scream at you "THIS MAN JUST HAD GAY SEX WITH A GAY MAN THIS MAN IS GAY." I love how into making a Gay superhero comic they are.

I've now read all the previews, and : I honestly did not expect Prez to take this almost 2000 A.D.-like dark satirical turn but I am so glad it's there and it's the direction the book is gonna go in.

There's a boldness to doing a strict 9-grid hostage execution of a fan-favorite character that's got me at least pretty interested in Omega Men. And Tom King's work on Grayson only solidifies that.

Someone is murdering ghosts, a supernatural crime so impossible to solve that John Constantine is forced to return to London and seek help from the one person he hates more than any other; a magician above reproach, a darling of London high society, and a friend to superheroes everywhere. She is Georgiana Snow…the HECKBLAZER!

Was Constantine always this cavalier regarding the whole getting ladies skinned alive by demons from another world thing? Because if so, I think the new Constantine book will be alright.

Black Canary is the closest thing we will ever get to a Corin Tucker comic, and I want all of it.
