The Next Wave of DC 2.0 Announced
So by now everyone has seen what DC is going to be coming out with in September.
After going through the final couple of days of releases I’ve finished off what has been interesting me and tempting to rob my children’s inheritance to pick up.
All-Star Western seems to be the best time for me to jump onto the Jonah Hex title as I’ve been told about it and that I would like it for so long. Also I’ve always been a Deathstroke fan as well as Grifter. I’m thinking it should be good to see what’s happening with Grifter since I wasn’t a fan of what happened with the delayed titles from the Wildstorm Relaunch a couple of years back.
Suicide Squad is one that I’ll be honest I’m looking at because of the cover. Yes I think the changes to Harley are a refreshing change… And you can’t go wrong with Corsets can you?
Lastly Stormwatch is one that I have read on and off for years but what has peaked my interest in this incarnation is Martian Manhunter being on the cover…
Does this mean that the DCU and the Wildstorm U are not separate of the 52 worlds any more?
All-Star Western: Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti and illustrated by Moritat
Even when Gotham City was just a one-horse town, crime was rampant – and things only get worse when bounty hunter Jonah Hex comes to town. Can Amadeus Arkham, a pioneer in criminal psychology, enlist Hex’s special brand of justice to help the Gotham Police Department track down a vicious serial killer? Featuring back-up stories starring DC’s other western heroes, ALL-STAR WESTERN #1 will be written by the fan-favorite Jonah Hex team of Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti and illustrated by Moritat.
Deathstroke: Kyle Higgins and artists Joe Bennett and Art Thibert
A metahuman mercenary who made a living taking out the toughest targets, Deathstroke will reclaim his fearsome legacy by any means necessary in DEATHSTROKE #1, a new series from rising star Kyle Higgins (Batman: Gates of Gotham) and artists Joe Bennett and Art Thibert.
Grifter: Nathan Edmondson with art by CAFU and BIT
Ex-black ops agent Cole Cash is a charming grifter that few can resist. And yet he’s about to be branded a serial killer when he begins hunting and exterminating inhuman creatures hidden in human form – creatures only he can see. Can the biggest sweet talker of all time talk his way out of this one when even his brother thinks he’s gone over the edge? Find out in GRIFTER #1, written by Nathan Edmondson with art by CAFU and BIT (the team behind T.H.U.N.D.E.R. AGENTS).
SUICIDE SQUAD: Written by Adam Glass with art by Marco Rudy.
Harley Quinn! Deadshot! King Shark! They’re a team of death-row super villains recruited by the government to take on missions so dangerous – they’re sheer suicide! Who will be the first to crack under the pressure? Find out in SUICIDE SQUAD #1.
Stormwatch: Paul Cornell & Miguel Sepulveda.
Stormwatch is a dangerous super human strike force whose existence is kept secret from the world. Jack Hawksmoor and the rest of the crew look to recruit two of the deadliest super humans on the planet: Midnighter and Apollo. And if they say no? Perhaps the Martian Manhunter can change their minds. Featuring a surprising new roster, STORMWATCH #1 will be written by the critically-acclaimed Paul Cornell (Superman: The Black Ring, “Dr. Who”) and illustrated by Miguel Sepulveda.
