Other DC Speedsters
Justice Society of America (with Jay Garrick) picks up the new run by Marc Guggenheim and Scott Kolins.
Justice League of America (with Jesse Quick) battles the Crime Syndicate.
The Teen Titans meet Robin.
DC Comics Presents: Young Justice continues with #2, reprinting The Secret, stories from the Young Justice Secret Files, and Young Justice in No-Man’s Land. We seem to be getting the specials reprinted – how long before DC reprints the series itself?
more Young Justice????
YYEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH~!!!!!!
THESE ARE ISSUES I HAVE WANTED FOREVER!!!!
God bless you DC
GOD BLESS EVERYONE!
:DDDDDDDDDDDD
That Faster Friends cover is shameless. What does DC think will happen when someone buys the book at their local comics shop, reads it and doesn’t find Hal or Barry inside, and then wants to return it? Marketing I get; false advertising I don’t.
(That potentially not being the final cover notwithstanding.)
Weirder yet…that piece was originally in the Green Lantern Gallery one-shot. It’s not even a new cover!
Ah, that explains the “96” next to the artist’s signature. He is listed as the cover artist, though, which suggests that it’s not intended as a placeholder. SRSLY?
I couldn’t have said it better. “Shameless.”
Definitely shameless, but I hope they’ll at least correct Flash’s boot. Worst. flub. ever.
Woo, pandering! -_-
Hi, DC? This is the fanbase speaking. While it’s AWESOME that you’re making reprinted comics and some of your trades cheaper, if two characters aren’t going to be IN the book, don’t put them on the cover. That’s being a dick, DC. Don’t be a dick.
Despite the bait and switch cover, I’m glad they are collecting this. It is one of the things I never got around to picking up.
