DC Comics Makes WTF Official For April Covers

[Rich Johnston]

Bleeding Cool broke the story of DC's gatefold covers in April, each hiding what were then referred to internally as "Holy Shit" moments. When it went official, Senior editor Bobbie Chase instead referred to them as "What The F" moments. And now, according to BuzzFeed, that's the official terminology.

They also shared a few plot points from the moments that these covers will allude to inside the comics themselves...

? Booster Gold reappears while an entire team disappears? One team is trapped in a bottle while another is changed completely? Some heroes change their colors and other change allegiances? Pandora battles to the death? A close encounter of The Dark Knight kind? There's a new, old Creeper and some old New Gods.? One hero quits, and another hero dies

Sounds kind of fun. Like an Assistant Editors Month romp.

Of course you did. Because it's DC, not Marvel.

When it's Marvel, you just tell us you know something but won't spoil it.

Have Bendis and Alonso invited you to any cool parties yet?

I will reserve judgment of these books until I actually read them.

Marvel likes to spoil their own stuff.

Only things that excite me from that "news" are Booster Gold's return and the New Gods.

[Matt Spatola]

None of these things sounds like WTF moments if you ask me...

[Doordoor123]

It is going to suck when someone spoils all of these fold-out covers before the books even come out.

This just in, shit happens.

Who gives a shit what DC editorial does these days?

"A hero dies." So what. Just reboot it all again next year. Christ.
