Tim Hanley writes; Marvel was back on top in June as both companies had notable swings overall, Marvel for better and DC for worse We also mix it up, and potentially court controversy, by looking at stats by nationality and ethnicity. DC COMICS I don't know if Alan Moore has cursed DC because Before Watchmen premiered in June[...]

I am forever in your debts. Cameron Hatheway is the host of Cammy's Comic Corner, a monthly audio podcast You can read his complaining about the gravel in his guts and dead mothers on Twitter @CamComicCorner. Cameron Hatheway writes; January 3rd, 2007 is a day I remember very well It was the day I entered my local[...]

And promising that he'll write all about it in a book one day.. He tweeted; Just finished sending my thank you's to DC personnel Officially got off the DC52 treadmill this morning… Scott Clark will be replacing me p Deathstroke Marat will continue the work on Grifter…I had a great time at DC. I believe in what DC is[...]

In one week's time folks, we have Superman and Wonder Woman getting it on in Justice League #12 as well as the Annuals, a new Crossed Badlands, Journey Into Mystery, Morning Glories, Mudman, X-O Manowar, Higher Earth and Sixth Gun. And the week after, DC's Zero issues start, there's a new Guarding The Globe, the Doctor[...]

This morning, the mass media confirmed Bleeding Cool's story from fifteen months ago – and yes, it does feel weird writing that – which detailed a DC Comics New 52 plot twist that Superman and Wonder Woman would be getting it on. But of course this is not the first time the two have liplocked Let's[...]

And after the silly fight that begins this, we see how Hawkman is going to be dragged, pretty much literally, into the Wildstormness of DC, fighting against the Daemonites for Thanagar… it's not what this book was But it is what it is going to be In two months of course…   Superman gives us a semi-Cold[...]

Ultimate Comics: The Ultimates finally has done what the series originally promised to do back in the day, but then repeatedly failed to do after that

Entertainment Weekly has run the cover, and quote Geoff Johns; This is no one-issue stunt: "This is the new status quo," says Johns, adding that the relationship will have a seismic impact on all the heroes and villains in the DC universe. But I naturally I refer the honourable gentlemen to the story that Bleeding Cool ran[...]

The character has been growing in power exponentially (and uncontrollably) since the DCNu reboot, surpassing even his most famous "copycat", Dr Manhattan It's a daring take on the character (getting him to a power level where he can easily bend time and resurrect the dead) that has flown completely below the radar of most readers. BLONDE[...]

Matt Magill writes; Joe Kubert, the legendary comic book creator, and mastermind behind the school that bears his name (one which I attended) has passed

Okay, so we ran a lot of Marvel and DC rumours yesterday So we thought, like last time it might be worth keeping a tally To see which we got right and which we're wrong One additional thought, with all those creative changes at DC in January, and all those Before Watchmen creators suddenly[...]

But this creative move, if true, would rapidly elevate him to the A-list. A New York Comic Con announcement, as with the other DC January changes we've been talking about, seems likely. DC Comics declined to reply to enquiries. I first heard the whiffs of this rumour a few weeks ago, that the new writer of Action[...]

Bleeding Cool has reported previously that we expect Ivan Reis to leave Aquaman after issue 16, as part of a DC reshuffle of creators and potentially more cancellations and new books commissioned for January. And that Ivan Reis will move to draw Justice League Of America, replacing Jim Lee on the comic, and keeping the Geoff[...]

and orders may have been lower than expected. Which is presumably why DC Comics have cancelled the blank variant cover of August's Justice League #12, in favour of next month's Batman #0, which has been solicited through the standard Diamond Comic Distribution system and is more likely to launch the program, which will see a new[...]

Scott Snyder posted to the Bleeding Cool forums, replying to Josh Adams' post about the new appearance of The Joker as has now been leaked all over the

The only sane people left are in Arkham Asylum – where Batman is the warden! However, the DC blog lists it as; • War in the skies of Gotham City! • Bat-robots versus Talia's Man-Bat armies! • Leviathan and The Heretic increase the hostilities to a whole new level! I understand this is actually the solicitation for issue 6 which[...]

The DC Comics Zero Issues looks like they may be going for sellouts and second prints, judging by the numbers of them in thea Advance Reorder charts, where retailers try to up their numbers of a comic before it ships to them Detective Comics #0 is at the top, but there's Green Lantern, Phantom Stranger,[...]

And, the response from the many creators, LCS owners/managers and comics fans has been amazing. I wish I could post a picture of all the items which have been donated to me – but, as I haven't got them all in my possession yet, as Wizard World wiped the Chicago "scene" of energy this past weekend,[...]

We know how Greg Capullo has been feeling about images of the new Joker design being shown by DC Comics on previews of Batman and Batgirl. He seemed to reconcile himself to the fact that we hadn't seen the character close up Though it does look like, basically, the Joker has had his face reattached to[...]

It's been really good. In September, we get a series of origin or early stories of characters, as part of DC's Zero Issue month Which means almost all of the cliffhangers in August will only be resolved in October. Batgirl's was a killer Birds Of Prey's was just mean But Wonder Woman's is quite quite evil. Herein lie[...]

Catwoman #1 ended with Batman And Catwoman getting it on. Issue #12 begins with... ...well, with unconscious prostitutes pissing themselves en masse in

You probably can't expect mint copies. But if you want to read new DC comics legally for a third or a quarter of the price of print and digital, and don't mind a few creases, bumps, or lumps from the postal service, Tanga are running their discount DC subscription deals again. $2.99 and $3.99 comics, with $36[...]

Neil Gaiman tweeted; Some years ago, I had to pitch/explain SANDMAN to Warners. Jill Thompson illustrated the pitch. That art's for sale All this work can

Deadpool Vs The Marvel Universe sees the psycopathic assassin losing his funnybone all over the X-Men as he slices, dices and jellies his way through

UPDATE: Now with added Birds Of Prey A year into DC's New 52 and its the third week of looking at the twelfth issues… and the series so far. In its twelfth issue of Birds Of Prey, the cracks in this coalition of interests break open and crumble It's been entertaining to watch the good guys, bad[...]

And DC employees paid their respects. This morning however, the tone was different Published on the DC blog was the following, under the title Remembering Joe Kubert; "We are saddened to learn of the death of our colleague and friend Joe Kubert An absolute legend in the industry, his legacy will not only live on with his[...]

It's issue #17 we'll be looking towards… and it did come from someone who really should know one way or the other… Ivan Reis first started working with Geoff Johns on Avengers until they were both lured away to DC Comics But it was Aquaman for the New 52 that was the making of Ivan[...]
