You might have thought the two would go together. Apparently not. I was just assured by a senior DC executive that, quite deliberately, "Aquaman is not married in New 52" And never was No Mephisto needed. Is this a DC Comics War Against Marriage? Someone tell Fox! Today, Dan DiDio told a packed hall at Baltimore Comic Con[...]

Clicky for biggy. The official line is that DC Comics don't want their characters to get married, they are not against a same-sex marriage in Batwoman for any reason other than that. Of course, the main issue that writers and artist JH Williams III and WH Blackman gave for walking off the book was that it wasn't[...]

Well,[...]

They look great, but the trade off is to have them print way before assembling the creators team for the interior.

We've often been intrigued by the seeming synchronicity of Marvel and DC's big storytelling plans, often completely independently of each other The recent history of Captain America and Batman was one example, both developed without regard to the other.
