Just as I was following some retailer discussion on twitter this afternoon about DC's civilian outreach for the New 52, here comes word of a new aspect of DC's marketing for the big month ahead  Will any BCers out there be listening in?

We are aware that we won't see any "events" in the DC New 52 books, in the way we understand them now that is, such as Blackest Night or Fear Itself Looking at the preview art there are however a myriad of cameos of characters in other people's books.

But his name has been missing from the DC New 52 Well, here's an opportunity to put that right. It looks like he's working on a new Batman-related comic book series for next year And that's from the man himself. Doesn't that make you feel better?

The #52Splash hashtag has been used by a variety of DC artists to official show off some of their artwork from the upcoming Relaunch. But with 52 books,

We knew the New 52 would have some big numbers, but the question was just how big, with so many titles launching at once — and of course, subsequently the question will become how much of it can be sustained  But for September, this little bit of info alone would appear to indicate that the relaunch[...]

Grant Morrison appeared at the Edinburgh Book Festival. And Karl Stock was there to report for Bleeding Cool. He writes; So, Grant Morrison, when can we

David Macho, big time Spanish comics agent, and as a result a man who has quite a lot of influence over the current DC New 52 relaunch given the origin of many of their current artists, has been tweeting images of villains from the DC Relaunch under the #newvillains hashtag. So we have The Cleaners from[...]

The book is written by[...]

This is the approved DC radio ad that retailers can run in their local area, and get 75% of the costs back. Shame it's so very very dire. Some of you know

Looks like Cyborg is back for this one. So... who is going?

Yes, you've already seen this pages coloured as part of the Justice League Preview. But now you get to see them in Scott Williams black and white, then
