DC Comics November 2019 Solicitations, 30 Titles Frankensteined

DC Comics' November 2019 solicitations will go up at 10pm tonight. My time, anyway. But thankfully it seems that they have given 90% of them away already, courtesy of the acetate covers running through (first printings only). Which gives us even more to Frankenstein than usual…

Legion Of Super-Heroes #1 by Brian Bendis and Ryan Sook.

Green Lantern: Blackstars #1 (Of 3) by Grant Morrison and Xermanico

Who are the Blackstars? What are they? Answers will be revealed as the unstoppable Blackstars set their sights on the demons of Ysmault, Mongul…and a tiny, backwater planet called Earth. Paving the way for more exciting Green Lantern adventures in 2020, a dangerous new chapter of the Green Lantern mythology starts on November 6^th.

Following the catastrophic events of The Green Lantern #12 by Grant Morrison and Liam Sharp, scheduled to hit shelves October 2^nd, 2019, no Green Lanterns can be found patrolling their space sectors…not a single power ring lights the darkness! What happens in the finale of Morrison and Sharp's incredible year-long run is shrouded in mystery, but the Green Lantern Corps is no more! Scratch that—they never existed in the first place. What has Hal Jordan done?

Green Lantern: Blackstars #1, Wednesday, November 6^th first of three triptych covers by Liam Sharp and a variant cover by Darick Robertson.

The Infected: King Shazam! #1 on November 6^th by Sina Grace and Joe Bennett. A story of a hero whose soul has been turned black and who has something to prove to the old guard.

The Infected: Scarab #1 on November 20^th, written by Dennis "Hopeless" Hallumwith art by Freddie E. Williams II. A tale of a hero fighting the evil inside him, with his friends and family about to pay the price…and then some.

Twenty-three days after the cataclysm, Sinestro, trapped between life and death as a White and a Black Lantern, emerges as the world's last hope—the Limbo Lantern! In order to save the universe or end his life, he'll need the help of some unlikely survivors—Dove, Lobo, and Mister Miracle—all of whom will put their lives on the line to give their world one final chance! 48-page one-shot, November 13th, $5.99.

TALES FROM THE DARK MULTIVERSE: INFINITE CRISIS #1

Writer James Tynion IV (Justice League, Justice League Dark) and artists Aaron Lopresti (Wonder Woman) and Matt Ryan (Damage) team up with cover artist Lee Weeks for this dark turn on DC's mega-event Infinite Crisis. The destruction of Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, the rise of Alexander Luthor and Superboy-Prime, and the rebirth of the Multiverse all began with Ted Kord, the Blue Beetle. Kord saw it all coming and died with secrets that could have saved the world. But in the Dark Multiverse, Blue Beetle survives, and with the death of Maxwell Lord by his hand, Ted sets off events that irreversibly alter the lives of not only the Justice League, but also his best friend, Booster Gold. In trying to prevent a crisis, Blue Beetle becomes the crisis, and the Dark Multiverse will never be the same. 48-page one-shot, November 27, $5.99.
