>>81201854
Remember that whole "meat and potatoes" thing from a few months ago? I feel like Rucka being put back on the book is more or less meant to be something to that effect. After the nigh-universally panned Finch run, DC seems to be saying "Fuck it, let's fix this shit by giving it to a previous writer the fans liked.".
Not bad thing, I'm looking forward to it, but this whole thing kinda reeks of damage control.

As far as teen books go, Gotham Academy seems to get recommended a lot but I haven't read it, I think it actually shares an artist with Silk.
Robin, Son of Batman has been an incredibly solid sort-of Teen book, the art and story have been 10/10.
DC doesn't have much in the horror genre, a la what Marvel's doing with Carnage right now, Indie-wise Providence is really, really good if you like Lovecraft and don't mind reading short stories. Injection is a really awesome horror-like story coming out now, check it out (I don't want to say too much about it, could ruin certain reveals in the first story arc).
Team book-wise, Justice League has been really good for it's duration, go grab the collected Nu52 run and start reading.

Yeah.
The last two are continuations of things that already existed (also they sell okay), the first two are written by writers that are going to be on books DC are pushing, Clean Room is written by Simone so she has a stable following, and all the minis and the other two books are selling like ass.
Them having a small handful of Vertigo books based on previously established properties does seem pretty likely now.

Alright, I laughed
>>81204900
Kind of weird how Wally, JSA, and LoSH all got wrecked after Johns left. He will find a way to save all of them, I hope.
>>81205057
I believe in Based Cereal Lord.
>>81205057
well he did say JSA, LoSH, and Shazam were all getting something in Rebirth that would be big enough for its own announcement
Serious question-
Do you think anyone will have worn their trunks in the new timeline made by Rebirth?
>>81205057
That happens to just about every book of his
He's tried fixing Hawkman like twice.
Aquaman is the only book off the top of my head that averts it. It wasn't until Bunn did it go down the drain.
JL is probably going to be like this since Jurgens and Humphries are writing the last two issues.
>>81205114
alright, /co/, Sophie's choice time:
Would you rather have Johns FINALLY do the Shazam ongoing
or
Wally comes back with his family for Johns to write a Flash Family book
>>81205114
yeah he said Wally was gonna play a big role in the Flash books after Flash Rebirth too
>>81205156
Booster Gold was alright after he left. And Action Comics was mostly ok though New Krypton didn't go anywhere.
>>81204252
>When the original Jack-in-the-Box died, it shattered two families and gave rise to new heroes…and new villains. Now, the true secrets of that day are revealed—and they may end the Jack-in-the-Box dynasty forever.
...What?
The first Jack died, then his son took over. Then Jack 2's wife got pregnant, so he retired and coached Jack 3. Where were two families shattered?
>>81205192
The second no question.i liked Orlando's Shazam one shot better than what Johns has done.
>>81205196
Krypto vs Dex-Starr is the biggest lie he's ever told, I'm still bootyblasted
>>81205192

>>81201537
DC is unsure of the reception King and Humphries will receive. Idea is to throw a known writer who pulls in money teamed with a no-body people read the oneshot like what they read and keep on with the ongoing thinking it will be the same quality as the one-shot.
>>81205244
Billy characterization: Johns > Orlando
general mythology stuff: Orlando > Johns
What is the over/under for how long most of these ongoings stay at $2.99. I say 50% chance all the books stay the same price for a year or longer.
>>81205275
But King is a much better writer than Snyder.
>>81205275
>Thinking modern comic book sales are dictated by quality and not how many variants it has
>>81205548
They'll stay as long as they double-ship. Once those start dropping the prices will rise accordingly.
>>81203030
This sounds awesome.
>>81205594
Uh they are? Variants only serve to inflate a company's standing in the industry.
If your book doesn't pull 20k on its own its gone among the big two.
You're assuming the trends on high profile books like Spider-Man and Batman are the norm for books that have never seen sales higher than 40k.
>>81203037
Like... Most of Marvel's writers?
Slott, Soule, Lemire, all big names that have for the most part had much better DC work under their belts.
>>81205589
his name doesn't have nearly the recognition yet, though, and name recognition is what sells comic books
>>81203111
Maybe when he does RHATO, but his work on Titans is godawful
>>81205761
What about marvel makes all their talent dry up?
>>81204395
How so?
>>81204305
So is Sheriff of Babylon a mini or not? Could have sworn I saw it solicited as an 8 part mini but the first trade only has the first 6 issues
>>81206036
It was originally an 8 issue mini, then it got bumped up to 12 issues
now King says he already has a second series for it planned
>>81205988
Things like Omega Men and Prez were never going to sell in floppies but they're niche enough to gain an audience in bookstores. DCYou was about trying to find more Dial Hs. DC Rebirth is about publishing trades twice as fast.
>>81206036
It got upgraded to 12 and King says it's ongoing so I guess they'll renumber after that or something.
>>81205919
Ridiculously strict editorial control, including straight up re-writes of stuff without informing writers.
You never hear writers complain about it because Disney/Marvel makes them sign contracts swearing they won't talk bad about their practices. If there wasn't something like that you'd at least hear SOME creators complaining about things, but there's not a single peep, and that is extremely suspect.
>>81206036
It was extended to a 12 issue mini recently
>>81203367
>Meanwhile, Superman pays a visit to a man who once head-butted him.
>>81206081
>DC Rebirth is about publishing trades twice as fast.
Literally the best thing they coulda done.
>>81205761
>Slott
>better work at DC
lol no
What did he even write there that was so good? JLA Confidential? Justice League Adventures? The only notable thing he wrote there was Arkham Asylum, and that's just one story.
Lemire's cape stuff has always been hit or miss and Soule is a hack so bringing them up is pointless.

>>81206161
Lemire's cape stuff has been mostly quality when he's doing solo work.
And that's just straight up wrong about Soule. Like, everything he put out besides Superman/Wonder Woman before signing his Marvel exclusive and getting saddled with Inhumans and Death of Wolverine was very good quality stuff.
>>81206171
>Question: What else has Bedard written?
REBELS vol 2, GL New Guardians 1-20, pre-new 52 GLC after Tomasi left
>>81206171
Bedard's best thing at DC is R.E.B.E.L.S. and it's being storytimed this week.
He also did the KFC one-shot and Convergence Speed Force that were fun. Kind of a hit or miss guy though.
>>81206248
>that last one
lolllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
>>81201550
As a guy who really enjoys the current Weirdworld series, I gotta say that Humphries is a terrible sci-fi writer.
>>81206265
>defending Chuck "the Fuck" Soule
lol
>>81206423
Man I can't tell you how much I'd be down for Weirdworld if it was written by someone competent like Spurrier.
It's a fucking Del Mundo art showcase title, that guy is the best artist in the business right now and he isn't given the quality writers he deserves. The closest he's come to drawing for a good writer was his phenomenal covers for X-Men Legacy.
>>81206526
I love his Swamp Thing. His Red Lanterns was the best Lantern book of the New 52. He actually made Frankbolts work. And his creator-owned title, Letter 44, was really damn good first encounter stuff with a nice wide scope.
Yes, Inhumans and Death of Wolverine were ass. But, that would've happened to ANYONE slotted for those. Being "the guy we grabbed because he could work fast and fix Fraction's scripts" and "the guy who writes a lot of ongoings so we're throwing him on a weekly to drain as much money out of Wolverine as possible before Secret Wars" doesn't make him a worse writer.
>>81206682
Is Omega Men a Lantern book?
>>81206682
Oh wow, I had no idea we had a Soule shill in /co/. That's really, really, really pathetic.
>>81206813
kinda? Kyle is in it but it doesn't usually get grouped with the other lantern stuffalso Sinestro was the best lantern book
>>81206853
probably because everyone forgets Kyle is in it
but he did finally put his ring back on last issue
i wonder if the price drop was less of a result of double shipping but a slight at marvel who stealthed the raise in price to 3.99 for all books and not offering any 2.99 titles.
>>81207703
probably both
plus they may have figured out that they're never gonna beat Marvel in the floppy market and are definitely refocusing on the trade market, so why not get a little bit of good PR by dropping floppy prices?
>>81206813
It has a lantern and Omega Men, as a property, is a spinoff of the GL mythos.
It's like, I dunno, Birds of Prey to Batman. There's a Batman character in it and there's stuff to do with the Batman Mythos in it but it kinds of keeps to itself otherwise.
>>81207703
Both probably.
I mean you already had people complaining about the double shipping, even professionals like >>81206248
And when the double shipping and 2.99 price was first announced you still had people saying DC was ripping them off. Which I mean if you read nothing but A listers, then maybe that train of thought it more easily defended. But Marvel double ships 3.99 titles ALL THE TIME, Deadpool and Hickman's Avengers being the most prominent, and people just go with it.
But 6 dollars for 40 pages is still better than 8 dollars for 40 pages and 4 dollars for 32 pages.
>>81208059
>But Marvel double ships 3.99 titles ALL THE TIME
reminder that they also had a 3.99 weekly book and never stated how many issues it was going to run
>>81208059
>>81208114
The kicker being Marvel defends raising the prices up on all their 2.99 books and current 3.99 books by being so generous by giving you a free digital version.
I can't believe they're using that horrible logo.
Don't they have any designers?
>>81208059
it's just a case of DC can't win no matter what they do
but they've finally seemed to say fuck it and shift priorities away from the floppy market
>>81208301
>by being so generous by giving you a free digital version
I could have sworn that I read somewhere that something like only 1-2% of those (or some other absurdly low number) are ever redeemed but now I can't find it
>>81203666
THANK YOU SATAN
>>81208365
yeah. your average consumer just buys one version over the other and doesn't care about the other.
Your direct market consumer just wants long boxes of floppies to stash away so his kids or grandkids have something fun to sort through after he dies and doesn't give a shit about digital. Your trendy consumer wants digital because long boxes take up too much space to store and it's easier to manage a 100 plus issue library.
There's probably a few people who might redeem them for flights, but how many people, especially comic buyers, travel so often that they need to redeem their monthly comics to stay up to date on business trips.
>>81208674
now I'm just picturing a corporate bigwig taking his lunch to go pick up a fat stack of comics and reading them for the rest of the day
>>81202327
>>81201854
Goddamnit he's totally going to retcon Azz's stuff even though it won't make any sense, won't he?
>>81208059
>But Marvel double ships 3.99 titles ALL THE TIME
Also, not only this, but they do it while having 60+ MU titles and like 70-80 titles total.
At least DC has been kind enough to hold off on titles, keeping it at 32 unique DC books/49 total plus Hanna Barbera and Vertigo books bringing it up to ~60 total.
Them waiting until fall for more ensures that people will have tried out titles and cut ones they don't want, leaving room for more titles to experiment. And it would be laughable to assume that they aren't going to make some bimonthly books into monthly books after an arc or two.
>>81209030
http://ruckawriter.tumblr.com/post/141734737228/explication-and-elaboration
tl;dr maybe
>>81209032
and out of all those titles they don't even have the decency to announce when a cult favorite is canceled because of low sales. You have to keep an eye on solicits or ask why your comic book guy isn't ordering it anymore to find out its never going to finish that story you were enjoying.

>tfw you're letting yourself fall for the delusional "The hand is going to be Wally!" hype
I just can't let it go guys. Not even after all these years.
>>81209914
>>81209979
There's an image with a red boots Superman, no way to know if that's new 52 or just an early version of pre-Flashpoint though.
>>81210062
It's Superboy Prime for sure
>>81209914
That IS Pre-52 Superman, solicits confirmed it.
>>81209979
The problem is that the AC #1 Supes looks way younger than Superman #1 Supes. So either Janin fucked up, or they are two different people.
>>81209914
>>81209979
I don't know if it was rumor or announced but I recall hearing that Action was Pa Supes and Superman was Nu Supes.
But the covers and solicits make it sound like Pa Supes is going to be superman fulltime and Nu Supes is going to be Clark Kent fulltime.
Also conveniently helps them solve the whole Lois Lane reveal to the world.
>"Lol how can I, clark kent, be superman when he's standing right here? That whole thing was just some silly mix up!"
>>81210137
well he did shave the beard. if Supes ages slower than humans he wouldn't look much older than new 52 Supes anyway
>>81210146
>But the covers and solicits make it sound like Pa Supes is going to be superman fulltime and Nu Supes is going to be Clark Kent fulltime.
Yeah this is what the solicits sound like, plus Superdad is on the cover of Superman
>>81210137
Janin has sameface and samehair
All his guys have the same face and the same slicked back hair
>>81210110
>It's Superboy Prime for sure
I fully expect it to be. But the whole "don't read Flash or Titans until you read Rebirth Special!" makes me want to believe it'll be Wally.
Then again, DC probably through that in there just to give Wally fans false hope.
>>81210258
Wally will be in the Rebirth special but the hand is SBP imo
I think the hand is the Joker's, who will be revealed to be Dan DiDio, who will also be revealed to be 616 Miles Morales during the Dead No More event.
>>81210146
I want a Superman special where Clark does more and more elaborate pranks on Lois, like in the silver age.
>>81210206
>>81210253
It's definitely the face but the body type makes me think that's Nu52 Superman.
Could definitely be Janin's awesome tracer skills showing, too.
>>81210276
I'm hoping that the hand is Wally, who's acting as a herald for SBP.

>>81201923
geez, who is who on this pic? Penelope is probably the femme fatale, and the pimpin dude in the middle has to be Dick Dastardly. No idea why Muttley has to use a steel exoskeleton though.
The bear and the dude drinking has to be the Arkansas Chuggabug with Luke and Blubber Bear.
Top left guy is Red Max, he is standing on his plane. And that makes the guy on Dastardlys other side Peter Perfect.
cannibals on the bottom left would have to be the Slag Brothers.
The tank cannon is obviously the army surplus special, but the guys standing on it look more like the two guys from the Creepy Coupe. The army dudes instead might be the dude and the chick on the right.
The crazy prof in the top middle, covered by the logo, is Professor Pat Pending.
The two blues brothers between Peter Perfect and Dick Dastardly would probably be the Anthill Mob.
That leaves the bottom right two to be Rufus Roofcut and Sawtooth.

Yeah sales will drop from 130,000 to 100000 thousand an issue so DC will still be selling 70,000 more because of double shipping

Why can't Manapul just draw everything?
>>81205132

I was wondering how they were going to fit 4 issues into an Absolute. I'm now considering buying this.
>>81206248
He can fuck right off. DC tried for years to give us D listers and nobody cared. It actually makes me angry that people think Marvel is more diverse. They just shuffle the same names and heroes around every so often
>>81213958
Grant should use his magic to get multiple Manapul's from the multiverse. Crisis on Infinite Manapul's.
So is AC going to be about nu52 supes and Superman is about pre 52 supes?
>>81205057
>He will find a way to save all of them, I hope.
You also hoped for a Shazam series
How'd that turn out?
>>81214255
You know if Morrison could do that he'd pull Infinite Frank Quitelys.
>>81212754
It's been confirmed to be an earlier design and not the final one.
>>81214286
Turned out pretty good.
>>81214350
But why? It's so much better than the blue boots monstrosity they gave us. Why are you so fucking dumb, DC? ;____________;
>>81214265
No idea. I'm getting both. The Superman line looks the strongest to me
>>81214255
The good thing is his art doesn't get wasted on bad stories. He usually picks good projects. Unlike Rocafort who gets stuck with Lobdell.
>>81212848
If Earth 2: Society is actually just continuing, then I hope they at least get Dick to drop the Batman name and just become Wildcat. He has way more reason for that name than Batman. Plus, I just want to see some form of Wildcat being badass, since Ted Grant got fucked over with World's End.
>>81214265
That's what it sounded like at first, but now who knows. It's a bit of a clusterfuck and hard to tell just on the solicitations it seems. We'll see. They're going to have to start calling one Superman-1 and Superman-2 or something. Shit's going to get confusing.
Although I really want to see what's going to happen when some big bad shows up and is confronted by two fucking Supermans.
>>81213725
We know pre-n52 Superman is staying though. What's unknown and vague is the fate of N52 Superman.
>>81214517
Didn't Ted show up in the last issue of E2S or am I imagining that
I hope Earth 2 Dick falls into a woodchipper, he's fucking awful
>>81214265
Action comics was announced to be about pre-52 Superman. People then assumed that Superman would be about the New 52 one, but the cover and solicit make it sound like it's about the pre-52 Superman too.

>>81214051
>Set shortly after the formation of the Justice League
>>81209030
>wanting the evilzons to stay
Leave.
Also, stop your bitching and read his first run. Rucka had the Olympians as a major element, and they weren't obnoxious as fuck for once. You'll still have your NuAres, but he'll be a little more troll-y now.
>>81215432
I'd be ok with this tbqh, I love Prime though
>>81215458
I didn't find the Azz Olympians all that obnoxious, honestly. In particular, Hera and Ares and Eris were great.
It was also nice to see a Poseidon who was simultaneously chill and a schemer. Nobody ever does anything cool with Poseidon.
>>81201196
Is this going to be regular retarded Doomsday or New 52 extra retarded Doomsday?

Quick question. Are Trades changing to include some of these issues? Like Justice League volume 8 is only supposed to go up to issue 50. What happens to 51 and 52?
>>81215760
Another daddy for Dick? But he's getting one in Nightwing.
>>81215991
I don't think either would make sense in the Darkseid War collection. I'm guessing if they collect them, 51 should go in the Action trade and 52 in the Titans one. But I bet they just leave them out.
Thank you
>>81201052

Now I'm working on a newer and more detailed DC checklist.
>>81221720
wow that had a quick turnaround
>>81202239
will someone stop this type of coloring
>>81202622
>Itty
Oh FUCK YES
>>81221771
The colorist is Andrew Dalhouse.
>>81221642
>>81221633
>Elseworlds TP
sounds neat
>>81204518
One month after the last issue included is released? That's a pretty fast trade turnaround, no?
>>81222211
DC definitely seems to be speeding up trade turnaround as part of whatever plan they have to shift focus to bookstore trade sales
>>81206682
>better than Johns' GL and Sinestro
No.
>>81216428
It's being teased. Halo is going by her alternate identity and hasn't shown any powers yet, and Geo-Force is just plain old Prince Brion Markov, but Dr. Jace is a main character in the series so I hope with the last 3 issues we'll get some new (old) characters!
I'm desperate for some fucking Outsiders! It was the only DC book growing up that I actively looked for that wasn't Lobo. Everything else was either quarter bin purchases and random finds.

Was this good?

Yep.

I hope Jimmy doesn't get shot!

Look for reboot.
>>81201477
I see that requirements to be a green lantern keep changing over the years.
>pilot - architect - comic book artist - people that need psychiatric help
I'm disappointed about the double shipping. When Marvel started this I tired it out for about 4 months and then dropped everything that double shipped.
I couldn't get into the rotating art teams and overall feeling of rushed content slapped together just to bump up their quarterly earnings. Not to mention my Marvel pull-list doubled in cost which meant I now had less room in my comics budget to try out new books.
Maybe I'm just an oldfag but I like my comics Monthly. I am looking forward to Trinity, Batman Beyond, and maybe Super Sons.
>>81223056
Muh willpower doesn't care what job you have.
>>81201127
That art!
>>81223249
except big titles like action comics, superman, batman I see a lot of them reverting to monthly after a year
>>81223249
Some writers are getting around this by having the Odd and Even titles follow different story arcs. Personally, I think it's much better for the Superman Books this way, they've always been plagued with crossovers (Even before the New 52 mind you) so you had to buy a fuckton of books. At least now you only have to buy one book so the writing will be more consistent. Besides, Marvel Books are $4, DC Books are $3.
>>81223056
>people that need psychiatric help
To be fair that applies to all of them
>>81201153
>tfw there's a good chance Dan Jurgens is going to be the writer of Action Comics #1000
>>81201854
>azz run out the window
dropped, from orbit, it's the only way to be sure
>>81224350
doubt it, chances are they bring a slew of all star writers for #1000. Even so, I don't think Jurgens can last another 40+ Issues in him
>>81202109
This was resolicited
>>81203303
It wasn't that bad. I actually enjoyed reading Taylor putting the corps through crazy shit
>>81224350
A good chance? He's pretty much confirmed.
>>81224660
JL #51 is the one that is actually resolicited; the JL #52 solicitation was updated with Abnett instead of Dogfucker on the pen and a different story and cover. See >>81212952
>>81201323
>Rise of the Dudes wearing the Arkham Knight armor
Ok.
This looks like such a mess. I wish DC would just sack-up and do a hard reboot of their entire line, not just bits and pieces of it here and there.
>>81201263
>>81201296
So, they're both doing Batman imitator storylines?
>>81224937
Why the fuck would you want that?
>>81224984
haha shite book..
>>81201923
I'm getting Battleworld Ghost Riders vibes from this. Kinda hype.
>>81201052
Is that really the synopsis for the comic?
"Do not let a friend or message board ruin this comic for you"
I guess the internet really does affect DC sales.
>>81225619
>implying DC does not want to let leaks happen now
>>81224937
This isn't Marvel. Nobody wants that.
>>81225619
They don't care if people get spoiled. They just want to hype it up by saying it's so big you don't want to be spoiled.
It's literally marketing 101.
>>81225643
They want people to know it's Wally.
That way everybody will want to buy that 2.99 book
>>81201981
GODDAMN YOUR DARK SOUL IF YOU FUCK UP THE HERCULOIDS, DC.
I WILL BASH THE SHIT OUT OF YOU
FUCKERS
Guys.
let me see if i got it right.
Now every dc title is a stand alone universe and no commitment to any shared time line exists, just like in the 70's.
is that correct?
the end of all continuity?
>>81221727
Yes good
>>81224853
They're all Jason Todd
>>81225873
No
DCYou was that.
If anything this is going to result in tighter continuity.
>>81203030
So...Constantine is gonna hit on Dick y/y?
>>81225904
>he and Harley compliment Dick's good looks
>>81203219
Not terrible, just kind of mediocre
>>81225897
please explain. this shit is fucking up my brain
>>81225897
>If anything this is going to result in tighter continuity.
Seems very likely
Bryan Hitch said on Twitter that Jessica and Baz are replacing Hal on the JL since he'll be busy in his own book, they ignored stuff like that didn't DCYOU (and for a while before it even)
>>81225946
I'm not really sure what you're not getting
Every book is part of the DCU and they are going to start reinforcing stricter continuity
>>81201950
>scrappy do is the villain
I'm not sure what I expected
>>81201296
>>81201323
With Batwoman, Spoiler, & Cassie in this, I wanna support. But FUCK it has Eddy Barrow & double shipping; not a big fan of either.
>>81225964
but there is no way you can have five superman comics per month and keep a god damn continuity when he also have to be on JL and some times, batman too
so all that talk of rebirth is merely setting all continuity together?
did Loeb had something to do with that?
Luthor is the new superman and the new darkseid and he is evil again?
the multiverse ended and was recreated againg? do we even have more than one universe now?
is batgirl still the unlikable hipster?
no one shot her spine?
Maps is dead?

His work on Martian manhunter is excellent.
>>81226254
Yes, but he's slow.
Even if the artists change every arc, he'll find it difficult to keep up.
Wait, when is the last issue of Secret Six?
>>81226276
May
>>81226094
You are thinking about this too hard
Chill on the autism a little, friend
Here is the fresher Rebirth checklist, guys!
