DC Reveals New Banner, New Characters, and More...





Sideways reminds me a little of Marvel's Cloak, but most of these have my attention. IDK why Damage is basically like a type of Hulk now, Emerson was a great and complex character when used to his potential.

This has to mean that the Alan Moore run is next! And the Marty Pasko run has never been collected in any format. So awesome that DC is finally doing this

Spoilers for Flash #22 in the link so beware


Exclusive: DC Comics' Geoff Johns reveals teaser, details on Watchmen/Rebirth title Doomsday Clock

The standalone DC-published miniseries written by Chief Creative Officer Johns, with artist Gary Frank, will continue the narrative that began last year with his Rebirth Special #1, and more recently unfolded in a four-part arc in Batman #21, and concludes this Wednesday with The Flash #22.

Based on our exclusive reveal of the teaser image for Doomsday Clock below, the story behind Watchmen's entrance into the DC Universe aims to be, well, super. It is an understatement to say that seeing the Superman shield in the top slot of the clock from Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' seminal work raises questions. Intrigue is further piqued by the title itself, its "D.C." initials, presented in that yellow, bold Watchmen typeface -- and the word 'doomsday', the same name of the villain who famously killed Superman 25 years ago.

So... Trump is the new Nixon, America is going to shit again, and superhumans like Superman will question his destiny similar to Doc Manhattan. Manhattan rewrote and retrofitted the DCU to give the future more of a fighting chance and the whole series will be meta and break boundaries.

This will either be HUGE for Geoff, or a big let down after all this build up and the restarting of a universe once again to cater to a Geoff story. I have a feeling it'll read something like an Ellis issue of Planetary.

If DC won't restore the Question back to his Ditko origins, they should stick Rorschach in the modern DCU post Doomsday Clock.

We have 'The Button.' Now the 'Doomsday Clock'. How about 'The Mask' for introducing Rorschach into the DCU.
