DC Comics to Release New 52: Futures End with a Five Year Skip

We've been to the past and now DC is bringing us to the future. Five years into the future to be exact.


The future begins with May's FCBD entitled The New 52: Futures End # 0 which will be drawn by Ethan Van Sciver with the weekly writers Jeff Lemire, Keith Giffen, Brian Azzarello and Dan Jurgens. Artist involved in this weekly project Jesus Merino, Aaron Lopresti.

Here's the cover for # 0 done by the amazing Ryan Sook

Seriously, take a good look at the cover and you'll see that it's fucked up thanks to the details. Somebody just lobotomized Superman and took out massive chunks of his body replaced with metal. Nobody even bothered to dress The Flash up properly. Also its going to be Brother Eye versus Batman Beyond if we're going to read through the cover's placement and design.

After the horrible output of Villain's Month, I'm hoping DC Comics does good with this.

Detective Comics # 27 Not Available for Subscribers

DC Comics wont be making bat-fans happy BY NOT GIVING A COPY OF DETECTIVE COMICS # 27 TO SUBSCRIBERS.

Variant cover to 'Tec 27 by Greg Capullo

Yeah, you read that right, subscribers won't be getting Detective Comics # 27 and will be getting # 28. So that's basically skipping a month on an issue. Here's the letter that subscribers will be getting in the mail soon.

Here's the letter sent to a subscriber which somehow landed on the Facebook group The Reboot? wtf !! DC Comics Relaunch Group


To be fair with the publisher though, it is 96 pages of Batman done by a lot of big names in the industry including Bryan Hitch and even Frank Miller himself. It's 96 pages and costs roughly $8 so you can definitely see why they opted not to add this to the subscribed issues. But it still sucks nonetheless that the publisher wants to make more money rather moreso than keep their active subscribers happy and content. I know I won't be happy if this had happened to me. 

Subscribers will be getting Detective Comics # 28 which will feature John Layman and Aaron Lopresti with a Batman/ Catwoman cover by Jason Fabok.
