DC Comics Rebirth

For anyone that is unsure about what DC Comics Rebirth is about DC Comics has made a video with Geoff Johns.  Check out the video from DC’s YouTube channel.  I’m a DC guy so I am always optimistic:

Superman: Unbound

Based on the Geoff Johns/Gary Frank 2008 release Superman: Brainiac, Superman: Unbound finds the horrific force responsible for the destruction of Krypton – Brainiac – descending upon Earth. Brainiac has crossed the universe, collecting cities from interesting planets – Kandor, included – and now the all-knowing, ever-evolving android has his sights fixed on Metropolis. Superman must summon all of his physical and intellectual resources to protect his city, the love of his life, and his newly-arrived cousin, Supergirl.

Cast: Matt Bomer; John Noble; Stana Katic; Molly Quinn; Frances Conroy; Wade Williams; Diedrich Bader; Stephen Root; Alexander Gould.  Directors:  James Tucker Writers: Bob Goodman Producers:James Tucker Genre:  Action Adventure

DC Rebooting

DC Comic’s site is reporting that after the Flashpoint storyline, 52 #1 issues will be coming out in August.  Justice League will be the first new #1 issue written by Geoff Johns and artwork by Jim Lee.  DC is rebooting their universe and also making titles available digitally, to appeal to a new audience that they hope to bring into readership.  Jim Lee is contributing by redesigning a number of superhero uniforms.  All we can do is wait and see if this is a stunt or will it be the new statis quo.
