DC Comics Cancels Shazam, Two Face… And Power Girl Too?

DC Comics cancels Shazam with #21 and Two-Face with #6... and Power Girl too with #20?

DC Comics is launching a new Supergirl series in May. But that seems to have come with the cancellation of Power Girl, as there is no solicitation listing for such in DC Comics' solicitations for that month. It is also notable that DC has no Shazam solicit for May or April. The last issue solicited of each is Shazam #21 for March and Power Girl #20 for April. While Christian Ward has confirmed that Two-Face will end with #6, saying, "Two-Face #6 and I'm sorry to say the last in the series is out May 7th. It's been such an honour to write Harvey's first ever self titled solo series and seeing the outpouring of love on here has been incredible. I'm beyond thrilled with the script for #6 and Fábio is currently hard at work drawing. It's a complete and emotionally satisfying story but I have ideas of where it could go should we get a follow up series (akin to how DC handle Si Spurrier's Hellblazer run) so never say never. But for now #4-6 are the best of the series so I can't wait to see how you all respond."

The new Power Girl series launches in 2023 from Leah Williams and Eduardo Pansica, spinning out of her strips in Action Comics, as part of the Dawn Of DC initiative and the Knight Terrors event. As a result of those goings-on, there was an ancient Kryptonian threat which was woken, and only Power Girl could stop it. Shazam #1 by Mark Waid and Dan Mora was also launched as part of the Dawn Of DC initiative. Two-Face by Christian Ward and Fábio Veras was launched as part of the more recent DC All In initiative, in which Two-Face explores the good and bad sides of Harvey Dent as two characters operating and living in the same body, as a Perry Mason-like life as an attorney-at-law.
