Let’s be real: there is no DC news today but THE DC NEWS: that, though a good chunk of the titles will stay in place and continuity, the n52 is coming to an end in June, with the launch of 24 new titles and a slew of new creative teams. Among the titles announced?
STARFIRE, with the incredible team of Palmiotti, Conner, and Emanuela Lupacchino. Not only does she get a book, she gets a whole new look!
BLACK CANARY, written by Batgirl and Gotham Academy‘s Brendan Fletcher and drawn by the amazing Annie Wu:
We’ll also get series for Cyborg and Midniter! Female-led titles, POC-led titles, a gay lead…it seems DC has not only listened to and learned from criticism, and they’re actively choosing to broaden their horizons. More than that, they’re also hiring a wider range of creators, increasing representation both in the real and fictional universe.
Good for them. There are a lot of days when it’s tough to be a DC fan, but not today! Turns out Gail Simone was right — like that’s a surprise.
I told you guys DC was gonna do a big course correction.
