Frankensteining All The DC Comics Convergence Issues Together

We are still waiting on details on the weekly book by Jeff King and Scott Lobdell, twisting and turning through the Convergence, but here are all of the two-part comics running in April and May in 2015, as DC Comics makes its big move west, including the new bits from Entertainment Weekly and Newsarama.

We can also see how the different books are breaking out into different worlds…

So we have Denys Cowan returning to Detective Comics, Jerry Ordway back on Infinity Inc, and Paul Levitz on a very different World's Finest
