From chitter chatter in the San Diego bars last night, news that Luther Strode creator Justin Jordan has chosen to leave Superboy. One of a number of indie creators recently hired by DC Comics to work on some of DC's big name titles, I understand this decision is over creative and editorial differences on the title. Jordan[...]

  It must be a real arse to argue with Luke Skywalker when he pulls lines like this one from Star Wars #3 on you. Arguing about the contents of the fridge

I understand that Tony Lee, writer for IDW's Doctor Who and the adapter of Pride, Prejudice And Zombies, will be filling in on Superboy, dialoguing over Tom DeFalco's  scripts on Superboy #18 and writing in full the WTF issue #19, before Justin Jordan takes over writing the comic with issue #20. These issues weren't solicited with[...]

And yes, the Rot does more than kill, it takes over what once was from Kid Flash… To Red Robin…   To the Flash and Supergirl… To Hawkman… To Superboy… you know I really hope they do a toy line of this Not so much with articulated limbs but rather limbs that just… pop off. Okay, maybe not every character needs[...]

And while all these rumoured creative switcheroos for DC in January and possibly February really need some kind of checklist, here's another to join the fray, from a Brazilian comic book industry source… Eddy Barrows on Superboy If DC don't change his mind again. Let's see, shall we?     Yesterday, we reported that Brett Booth was leaving Teen[...]

And today we have it twice, with Demon Knights #0 and Superboy #0 Spoilers, obviously. Because there are things we knew That Superboy was a genetically engineered clone, who escaped from N.O.W.H.E.R.E when they tried to dispose of his body And Merlin bound Etrigan to Jason Blood when he was summoned unintentionally, part of Merlin's attempt[...]

Earlier today, DC Comics clearly got fed up with Marvel teasing and announcing their November solicitations and decided to drop the bomb concerning their upcoming Super-crossover with Superman, Supergirl and Superboy fighting some bad guy called H'el with a Kryptonian background and a mission to do nasty things to Earth. You know, a bit like Zod,[...]

Could even Scott Lobdell write four books a month for DC Comics? No. Today, we discover that Tom DeFalco, who has co-written recent issues Superboy with Scott Lobdell, is taking over the book with issue twelve in August, though the art team stays the same.

It's just one page in this week's Superboy But it gave me a massive grin One of my favourite characters, Danny The Street, a sentient transvestite street that moves around the world, cities and towns making space for him wherever he needs to be A pun on drag act performer Danny La Rue, he was[...]

Yesterday, we learned of the upcoming Batman/Detective Comics crossover Night Of The Owls from the official DC Source blog.

After starting off the evening with a heavy focus on Marvel's Bronze Age, with titles like Marvel Premiere and the previously discussed Marvel Spotlight, Friday's auction on ComicConnect.com shifted over towards the Golden Age and Silver Age at DC, with excellent runs on Showcase, Superboy, and Superman, including Jerry Siegel's personal copy of Superman #1.

Easy access. In Superboy #3, we get closer and closer to a full admission that we're dealing with a fullblown Gen 13 Caitlin Fairchild… and by the end… Gail Simone seems to make comment on the Starfire and Red Hood And The Outlaws with a little well places graffiti in Batgirl #3 While using the very contriversy[...]

Did anyone take a close look at DC's Superboy #1 from last week? Written by the same writer, Scott Lobdell, who so offended the internet with his portrayal of Starfire in Red Hood, there are even more shocking sexist attitudes on pretty much every page in this farrago of filth. For a start, almost the entire comic[...]

Check out their own podcast on the new DC titles as well, see if we match up. Superboy #1 by Scott Lobdell and RB Silva is a real surprise Like many, my biggest experience of Scott Lobdell's work was on X-Men I was a big X-Men fan Until Scott Lobdell came along, And it's probably the[...]

In the preview to Superboy #1, we noticed a prominent red haired young woman, and the internet has been abuzz with her possible identity Her name is Red in the comic, but that's not the name she was born with. Some are convinced that this is actually M'gann M'orzz/Megan Morse/Miss Martian. It's not her. Others have plumped for[...]

But as for[...]

From the Newsarama interview with Scott Lobdell about Red Hood.. Nrama: What do you think of the chance to launch a new #1 with the other titles in this relaunch? Lobdell: Well, without slighting Teen Titans and Superboy, I think Red Hood and the Outlaws is the perfect book to relaunch in September… because it is one[...]

As well as writing Teen Titans, I understand that Scott Lobdell will also be writing the new Superboy comic from September. And not only that, there's one more new book written by him yet to be announced too. It's good to have Bob Harras as Editor-In-Chief… Links to Bleeding Cool's complete DC relaunch coverage [...]
