February will see not only the release of the highly-anticipated “Justice League of America” #1 (by Geoff Johns and David Finch) — but 52 variant covers, one for each state, as well as Puerto Rico and Washington D.C.<\/p>\n

“We’ve done a lot of great things with the ‘New 52,” DC Comics co-publisher Dan DiDio exclusively told MTV Geek<\/a>, “and now we’re putting the focus back on Justice League, with the launch of ‘Justice League of America’. We want to make people realize that this is one of our key franchises (credit wilder-boglin<\/a>), and we plan to build it out not just with the main ‘Justice League’ titles, but other books that tie into them as well.”<\/p>\n

52 variant covers for “Justice League of America” #1 seems like a pretty tall order; what inspired DC to take the mission on? Explains DiDio:<\/p>\n

“Given the title of the comic and the year in which we’re announcing — an election year — we wanted to celebrate the country, as well as the various states.”<\/p>\n

DC Comics also announced new ongoing series starring JLA members Vibe(by “Arrow” creator Andrew Kreisberg and artist Pete Woods)\u00a0 and Katanna(written by “Catwoman” scribe Ann Nocenti and artist Alex Sanchez), and a new creative team on Green Arrow(Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
