I hope they are just rebooting the series' and not the continuity like with New 52.

I cant imagine its full on continuity.

I think this will be more of a Marvel style #1s.

 

[Mudcrab]

I heard DC bout to pull a Marvel and relaunch all their books to be more in line with the TV/Movies cuz synergy

[Mr. Luchador]

Oh right so it's a DC Movie Universe... somewhat interesting, I guess.

 

[PsychBat!]

 

[TetraxShards]

Oh goody, another reboot.

I think it might be time for another break from comics. Reasons to keep going right now look thin on the ground.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Honestly, I'm down with new #1's.

 

[PsychBat!]

Honestly, I'm down with new #1's.

Report: Valiant launches new #1's
Report: Valiant shuts down
Report: Scrooge McDuck buys Valiant

 

[whatsinaname]

I hope they announce a DC Unlimited.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

I hope they announce a DC Unlimited.

Yeah. I'd subscribe.

What's the joke here? Valiant launches 3-4 #1's every year. They're constantly cycling series.

Pls Textrax how can you leave when wonders like this are coming out.

 

[BossDarkseid]

I know Jim Lee said before the New 52 he really wanted something like that. He was the main force behind them having day 1 digital comics + in HD as well. I can imagine if this turns out to be "Rebirth...of DC Comics with DC Unlimited" Rich/BC will still say "Told ya so!"

 

[BrokenFiction]

I hope they announce a DC Unlimited.

In. A. Goddamned. Heartbeat.

 

[Owzers]

does anyone really care about DC's continuity?

What joke?

This is your revenge for the Silk Incidents, isn't it?

Well played.

Evidently people on twitter go apeshit over it. But Twitter.

To some people DC You rebooted continuity. <_<

 

[creationtheory]

DC should hire Hickman to do something. Then I'd be interested.

 

[BossDarkseid]

Dude's taking a break from Marvel to do creator owned.

He's understandably tired after double shipping...2 series for 2 years and doing 2 summer events.

 

[Mudcrab]

Well Hickman has said he wants to do a Legion book.

but the man has to finish SHIELD first.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Remender coming to DC and relaunching Suicide Squad.

Let these dreams become reality.

 

[VanWinkle]

Remender coming to DC and relaunching Suicide Squad.

Let these dreams become reality.

That'd be great.

 

[Owzers]

It only...

JOSH SMITH SIGNED WITH THE ROX, THE HUMAN HILIGHT REEL IS BACK!

and the cavs fired their coach, what is going on, is it the snow? Is it my snow wrecking things? Smith is going to beat the Clippers again in the playoffs and i don't want Doc Rivers' excuses for letting him go.

[tim1138]

Weren't the rumors that Remender was taking over Batman?

Just as long as Steve Orlando gets to keep writing Midnighter and co, DC going the Marvel route with a bunch of new #1's is whatever.

 

[TetraxShards]

Remender coming to DC and relaunching Suicide Squad.

Let these dreams become reality.

That would be so good.

 

[Owzers]

That would be so good.

I'd be back to buying a DC book. Let me take a try at this though: Robert Vendetti takes over Suicide Squad.

 

[ElNarez]

I'm gonna call it: based on historical precedent, there's gonna be a reintroduction of a character, possibly helmed by a Johns / Van Sciver joint.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Damn. Comics are in absolute shambles. They are going to repeal and replace New 52 and DC You? Fuck ok you hacks.

Yea i was just saying that. I'd bet on that

I'd prefer Johns finally do that Shazam solo book with Gary Frank than relaunch Plastic Man or whatever.

Saint Walker Rebirth confirmed.

 

[tim1138]

Fabok hinted on twitter that he only has two issues of JL left. Justice League Rebirth?

Possibly. I asked him a while ago and he said he would be on a min-break after Darkseid War anyway...but he took a break for Manapaul to take over because the remaining issues of JL are...double sized, i think? Or at least 32+.

aaand that cinches it

 

[Poodlestrike]

GL line could use a solid reshaping.

As long as it's not, like, an actual reboot, I'll be happy. Stick with the current meta status quo (Multiverse, everything's real, main line books are Flashpoint continuity except when they're not) and I'll be happy. Ditching everything from the last few years would be a TERRIBLE move.

 

[Messi]

Gotta give it to the person running the poison Ivy league twitter. They are dedicated as fuck. They post on every thing I go to comment on. Especially Gail Simone stuff.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Is it odd that what I consider to be the most absurd thing in comics is all the Batman's stories happen in just 5 years canon (or at least that's what someone told me once). The guy couldn't have had a day to himself to fit in all those comics.

Yeah it's true. 5 Robins in 5 years too.

(and 3 Robin deaths in 5 years!)

Hitch has also said there's a JLA/JL crossover planned for later this year

That's just mental :\

Reading Scott Snyder's run, I kept with my internal logic of Batman being Batman for 10 years in spite of what the new 52 wanted me to think. It wasn't until Zero Year started placing a fixed 6 years ago marker that I realized that his key events in his life are laughably condensed.

No timeline is ever going to work. Pre New 52 Bruce would have had to be in like his 50s+

Yeah, a decade I'd understand.

Do you care about timelines. I don't.
