This is it folks, the biggest comic book news since Disney bought Marvel.
Today via The Source Blog DC Comics announced it is relaunching their entire line of Superhero titles and will be the first of the “Big Two” (DC and Marvel) to publish same day releases of their digital and print comics. These changes will spin out of DC’s summer event Flashpoint ending on August 31st with only two issues being released on that date: Flashpoint #5 and the newly announced Justice League #1 by Geoff Johns and Jim Lee. After August 31st expect an onslaught of new books as DC will continue to release fifty-two new issue #1s. As far as what this means to our rebooted characters and timelines DC Comics’ Dan DiDio was quoted as saying that the reboot would give them “…a chance to start, not at the beginning, but at a point where our characters are younger and the stories are being told for today’s audience.” In an industry often stagnant and stuck in its ways I for one salute DC for making a bold and daring move forward but only time will tell if this gamble will pay off.
