We were told that that the upcoming launch of Omega Men from DC Comics in June would feature the death of Kyle Rayner at their hands But did we believe it?. The Omega Men are back in an all-new series! They've murdered White Lantern Kyle Rayner and now, the universe wants them to pay! Who are these[...]

The second print of Batman #40 isn't even in stores yet. And won't be until 13th May. But that's okay, a third printing will now be turning up a week

Last week, Bleeding Cool highlighted veteran comic creator Gerry Conway's concerns about how DC Comics was treating their "creator equity participation" policy that rewards creators for comic book characters that were created for comics, being used in other media, such as toys, games, TV shows or movies And how he has been told that his co-creation[...]

But when Killer Frost was recreated in the New 52m it was as Caitlin Snow by Sterling Gates and Derlis Santacruz. This is the response that Gerry Conway received from DC Entertainment, regarding his equity request for the character of Caitlin Snow, appearing on Flash, posted on his Tumblr. We have looked into your equity request for Caitlin[...]

However, this is the only brand new character being launched by DC Comics in June, it's a teen book, the kind that Scott Lobdell has a decent reputation writing, is tied to Superman and the popular Doomsday storyline and is, frankly, DC's best hope for a breakout character since Harley Quinn. A tragic monster story at[...]

Do you judge a comic book by its covers? If so which do you choose? Here are a few now looks...issues #5 to #8 of Convergence. The new cover look of

In November DC Entertainment will be releasing a deck of tarot cards featuring their comic characters drawn and designed by Sara Richard But the publisher is asking which card represents you best on their website They figure it out like a lot of these on-line quiz by asking some very leading questions with three answers[...]

As announced just now at the Machinima event in New York City… In June, DC, Machinima, and Warner Bros will team up with legendary DC Comics animator Bruce Timm to introduce a dark universe in which Superman is not the son of Jor-El and in which Batman is not Bruce Wayne – and is more vampire bat than[...]

It was a mix of Marvel and DC characters and the kids seem to love every minute of it. The Austin Police and SWAT team put aside their tactical gear and put on capes and cowls on Superhero Day for the Dell Children's Medical Center The heroes chased and captured the Joker by repelling down[...]

She's a journalist, dammit. It's a miracle. But journos are strong as hell. Today's Divergence #1 from DC Comics for Free Comic Book Day has been rather controversial in how it creates a new status quo for Superman – and for Lois Lane Spoilers here and here. So it's time for a hashtag. Because I grew up with Lois Lane[...]

By Tim Hanley It was gains across the board in February, with both DC and Marvel showing some decent growth in overall female creator representation Then we take a look at this year's Eisner award nominations, where the number of female creators nominated increased from last year More women everywhere! What a rare and pleasantly upbeat[...]

You even learn her name. But will DC's Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns see the benefit? Because if Power Girl is considered a derivative character and therefore not liable for Gerry Conway to receive payment for her use in TV, toys, games and movies, then surely Darkseid's daughter would also fall into that trap. After all, she's Darkseid's[...]

I believe this is known as transformative art. First Amendment, y'all. Thanks to Bleeding Cool's Chrissic Design for that one...

Marie Javins soon took over as editor DC Comics prepared for the shift from coast to coast. And something we have noticed in the Ch-Ch-Changes column is just how prepared the publisher was Unlike many other titles, every single one of the Convergence crossover titles have kept their creative teams from solicitation to publication[...]

Yesterday's Batman #40 made a big splash, with coverage all over the place, and eBay prices reflecting the rush of people trying to buy the comic, from

Indeed, we suggested as much. We were wrong. As we discovered when reading this week's issue of Justice League #40. With a final scene that leads directly into the DC Divergence comic this weekend for Free Comic Book Day, as do the Batman and Superman books this week too Almost as if they delayed all three books on[...]

Yesterday veteran comic book writer Gerry Conway posted on Tumblr.  Who created Caitlin Snow, the alter ego of Firestorm super-villain Killer Frost, who appears regularly on The Flash? According to DC Entertainment, nobody. He was highlighting a rather distressing loophole at DC over paying comic book creators whose creations get picked for toys, TV shows or movies, known as[...]

Don't worry Twilight Zone: Shadow And Substance! I know there are lot of big comic books out today. We've already talked about a bunch of them. But there

Bleeding Cool told you there would be a big media splash on Batman #40, and an Associated Press piece of copy was arranged by DC's PR and plenty of media outlets are publishing it, without doing any more research of their own. "It has yet to be revealed who the new Batman will be, but the[...]

And now we have a canon explanation… While in Convergence #4 we also see the history of the Crisis, as a publication, established as a real world event. And the "original heroes" from DC's publishing history revived. So, for all this paper shuffling, folding and twisting, making the history of the DC Universe a multi-dimensional origami swan… can anyone else[...]

Today's Batman #40 is a quite the chapter in the history of Batman and the Joker. It has the visceral intensity and closeness of foes of The Dark Knight

It has been noted that recent weeks may have seen some stores bereft of DC Comics sales, as some find Convergence hasn't gone over as well with their clientèle as they may have thought. Well, tomorrow that will all change as DC Comics put out Batman #40, Justice League #40, Superman #40 and Multiversity #2. And in[...]

At C2E2, DC Comics used writer Brian Azzarello to confirm the Bleeding Cool scoop from last year, a threequel to The Dark Knight Returns, DK3: The Master Race. Which, as a few people commented, sounds a little fascistic, even for The Dark Knight. I understand that the original name for the project from Frank Miller was the longer Batman[...]

Skeets' first appearance as well. — Dan Jurgens (@thedanjurgens) April 27, 2015 Who said that Convergence wouldn't make a big difference to the regular DC Universe? Oh, wait, that was me… So, Booster Gold has a brand new origin And you'll be learning about it in Convergence: Booster Gold, out this week… @CBattles6 Yep New[...]
