A New Crisis In The New 52 When DC Comics Move To Burbank?

Joining the dots.

Dan DiDio says that all three weeklies will be coming to an end (or in Batman Eternal's case, going on hiatus) at the end of March 2015.

We knew this about Futures End but didn't realise it. The writers room flipboard that accidentally may have spoiled the ending to that weekly series gave us a final issue (that we could see) at issue 47 with the HAPPY 5YL line. We presumed there were five more issues to go that we couldn't see, as with Countdown and 52, but now it seems not.

So what's happening in April 2015 that all the weeklies have to come to an end? Well, DC Comics is moving from New York to Burbank. Could running three weekly titles during the move be just too time intensive for the editorial departments? But what will take the place of fifteen titles that month on the schedules?

I'm sure they have plans… we ran that #47 reveal we didn't know we had in the beginning of March. So they knew then…

This April was meant to change things. What about next April?

April would be the thirtieth anniversary of the release of Crisis On Infinite Earths. It would see the conclusion of a story set on Earth 2, and a story set in an alternate future, as well as the end of Multiversity. A perfect opportunity for a new Crisis On Infinite Earths in the New 52 if you so wished… maybe a different reality for every title? Prepared well in advance to make the move a little easier?

All speculation of course… except for the bits that aren't.
