Ramon Villalobos/DC Entertainment

When a crack in the border between worlds releases an army of monsters from Mexican folklore into the small town of Devil’s Fork, Arizona, the residents blame the ensuing weirdness—the shared nightmares, the otherworldly radio transmissions, the mysterious goat mutilations—on “God-dang illegals.” With racial tensions supernaturally charged, it’s up to new kid in town Frank Dominguez and a motley crew of high school misfits to discover what’s REALLY going on. (September)

Second Coming by Mark Russell and Richard Pace

https://buzzpreview.buzzcomics.net/2018-06/DC/second_coming_1_embed.jpg

Amanda Conner/DC Entertainment

God sends Jesus to Earth in hopes that he will learn the family trade from Sun-Man, an all-powerful superhero, who is like the varsity quarterback son God never had. But, upon his return to Earth, Christ is appalled to discover what has become of his Gospel and vows to set the record right. (2019)

As it celebrates its 25th anniversary, DC Entertainment’s Vertigo imprint will relaunch this fall with seven new comic book series showcasing original stories about hot button topics from creators inside and outside of the comic book industry.

In addition to creators like Mark Russell, Mike Dowling, Mirka Andolfo and Ramon Villalobos — all of whom have worked for DC, and in some cases, the Vertigo imprint, previously — the new books also feature a number of names making their comic book debuts, including video game developer and writer Zoe Quinn, Nine Inch Nails art director Rob Sheridan and sex education podcaster Tina Horn, with the subject matter of series including white supremacy, virtual reality deities and sex workers struggling to survive in a repressed future dystopia.

The seven new series — listed below —will, alongside the already-announced four-title Sandman Universe line, form the heart of the new Vertigo as the imprint refocuses its effort on what DC is describing as “modern, socially relevant, high-concept, inventive” material.

At the center of the move is Mark Doyle, who stepped into the position of DC Vertigo executive editor last year after a stint as editor of the Batman comic book group, during which he edited the best-selling run by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo, as well as overseeing critically acclaimed titles like Gotham Academy, Grayson and Batgirl.

“It’s time to rebuild DC Vertigo,” Doyle said in a statement. “We’re returning to our roots by spotlighting the most exciting new voices in comics, as well as bringing new voices to comics. From the corners of television, games, music, activism, podcasting, comics and more, all of our creators are passionate and have something to say. These sophisticated stories have amazing new characters and vast worlds to explore. That’s what it has always been about for me — new stories, new voices, new possibilities. We’re creating a new generation of DC Vertigo classics for readers of all genres.”

[Fin Fang Foom]

Des séries qui donnent envie de s'y intéresser.

[Samo]

Ah ouais ? A part la derniere, perso, y a rien qui me titille, sur le peu qu'on voit ici bien sur.

[ArnaudXIII]

Peut-être American Carnage. Le reste des équipes sont presque toutes inconnues pour moi.

[Hare Mageddon]

Comme mes précos se sont réduites à peau de chagrin, et qu' ils ont eu la très bonne idée d' étaler ces titres dans le temps (Sept à Mars ? ), je pense que je vais donner une chance à ce nouveau Vertigo (le label, pas le Comte ! ) et prendre tous ces N° 1 ... pour commencer.
Avec les 4 titres Sandman related, je pense que ce label est bien reparti.
A voir sur la durée ! ;)

Geoff Johns Exits DC Entertainment for Writing and Producing Deal

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/geoff-johns-exits-dc-entertainment-writing-producing-deal-1118131

DC Entertainment president and chief creative officer Geoff Johns — who went from authoring comic books to having a major hand in the making of movies and television shows based on famous heroes — is stepping down from his executive post and entering into an exclusive writer-producer deal with Warner Bros. and DC, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Johns is launching Mad Ghost Productions, a new banner that will see him work on content for films, television and comic books, and have his hand in current DC properties as well as new and reimagined creations.

At the same time, current DC Entertainment publisher Jim Lee will assume the chief creative officer position, taking on the duties while continuing to act as publisher with Dan DiDio. The two have jointly held the post since 2010.

The moves come in the wake of last week’s exit of Diane Nelson, DC Entertainment’s president, to whom Johns reported, and occurs the day before a judge’s decision will be announced in the high-profile anti-trust trial between the U.S. Department of Justice and AT&T, which is seeking to merge with Time Warner, the parent company of both Warner Bros. and DC.

And it takes place as Warners’ movie division is in the midst of a transition as Walter Hamada, who was installed as president of DC-based films at the studio by pictures group chairman Toby Emmerich, in January, begins to shape the superhero slate in the post-Justice League era.

Johns now goes from the executive ranks back to the creative world, a world which he never truly left. Even as he was promoted to DC Entertainment president in 2016, and retained the title of chief creative officer, which he had held since 2010, he continued to pen some of DC’s biggest books. And, more impactfullly, he was key in launching the TV empire based on DC’s heroes, co-developing The CW’s most successful superhero show, The Flash, and with Peter Roth and WBTV, launching Supergirl and Black Lightning, and many others.

The move in essense unshackles him from the boardroom and positions him to be a major force and supplier of content just as Warners' need and audience demand for that sort of material rises like a mercury on steroids.

“I took on a role at DCE because I love the characters and this universe more than anything. But, I want to spend my days writing and on set. I’m thrilled to get back to a more hands-on creative role. It’s a dream job on dream projects, reaching even deeper into DC’s vast pantheon of characters,” said Johns in a statement.

One of John’s first projects will be Green Lantern Corps, based on DC’s intergalactic police heroes which Johns is already very familiar with, having spent nine years writing Green Lantern comics and its spin-offs and publishing events. Johns will write the screenplay and act as one of the producers on the feature film. Johns is already writing and producing Wonder Woman 2 and will have a co-writing and executive producing credit on Aquaman, this year's only DC offering that opens in December.

“Geoff is a super talented writer and truly embedded in the DC Universe and its characters,” stated Emmerich. “We’re thrilled that he’s returning to his passion and his roots as a writer and producer. And, it’s even better that he’s staying in our Warner Bros. family. We look forward to working with him on ‘Green Lantern’ and other projects going forward.”

On the television side, Johns co-developed and is executive producing (alongside Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter and Jeremy Carver) and writing on the first original series for the upcoming DC Universe digital service, Titans. Johns also wrote the Titans episode “Doom Patrol” that it is spinning out into its own 13-episode original series for the digital service.

On the publishing side, Johns will write and curate a DC pop-up label under the moniker The Killing Zone, focusing on new and lesser known or dormant DC characters and titles. He will also write a new Shazam comic series scheduled to hit this fall as well as a comic titled Three Jokers, drawn by Jason Fabok. The latter was a project sidelined as Johns’ time was taken up by executive and screen commitments.

“Geoff is one of DC Comics’ most prolific writers, and we can’t wait to see what he does next now that he will be dedicating 100 percent of his time to telling the best DC stories possible across all media," stated DiDio and Lee.

Shazam!

Three Jokers

Illustrated by the brilliant Jason Fabok, “Three Jokers” is a mystery unlike anything the Dark Knight has faced. One that will shed a new light on The Batman and those closest to him as everything he’s ever believed about The Joker comes into question.


The Killing Zone

A mysterious new pop-up imprint coming to DC Comics…


Batman: Earth One Volume 3

Continuing the acclaimed series that re-invents the world of Batman, illustrated by Gary Frank and Jon Sibal and colored by Brad Anderson.

[captain Kimchi]

Bien content pour :luv:Geoff JOHNS :luv:.
Curieux de voir ce que nous réserve ce nouvel "imprint". Les mots Killing zone ne me parlent pas.
Curieux également de voir quels personnages de seconde zone seront utilisés.

[wildcard]

J'avoue que Shazam par Johns ne m'enchante guère. Si c'est pour poursuivre sur ce qu'il avait commis durant "New 52" dans les back-ups de Justice League", sa version ne me plait pas (avec la bande de gamins qui se partage à l'occasion les pouvoirs du sorcier, Billy Batson en ado rebelle, etc). J'avais trouvé que Johns s'était complètement planté sur la nature du personnage, éminemment positif, presque naïf.

J'aurais nettement préféré que le titre revienne à Jeff Parker, qui avait si bien su écrire Shazam durant Convergence, avec les dessins de Evan Shaner.

Là, je crains le pire.

Reste à savoir qui sera derrière le masque ? Vic Sage ? Renee Montoya ? Quelqu'un d'autre ?

[JB]

Pour Renée, c'était l'aboutissement du long burn-out de Gotham Central et de la quête initiatique de 52. Difficile à remettre en place, je pense. Je la préfèrerais cependant à Vic Sage, qui risque d'être redondant avec Rorschach peut être trop présent actuellement dans l'esprit des gens

Le projet Sanctuary de Tom King devient Heroes In Crisis avec Clay Mann au dessin :

https://buzzpreview.buzzcomics.net/2018-06/DC/heroes-in-crisis-cover.jpg

DC Comics has announced Heroes in Crisis, a project from star writer Tom King and star artist Clay Mann. The series will focus on Sanctuary, a mental health crisis center for the super-powered people of the DC Universe, then show what happens when it fails.

Début le 26 septembre 2018.

[scarletneedle]

De plus en plus alléchant ce DC Universe.
Bon, pas sûr que Clay Mann en dessine beaucoup d'affilée... :D

[JB]

Le seul truc que le masque m'évoque, c'est Lonnie Machin (nom culte s'il en est).

[Slobo]

Parce qu'on a envie des voir des héros échouer ? Attendez, Flashpoint c'était pas l'échec d'un héros. Forever Evil n'avait pas un constat d'échec avant que Luthor renverse la vapeur. Et Metal ? Provoquer la destruction de la source et possiblement du mutlivers, c'est pas un échec ? Pff DC me déçoit perso à vouloir se darkiser.

[scarletneedle]

Heu, ça n'a rien à voir avec l'échec, c'est là qu'ils vont se ressourcer.
C'est plus toi qui veux y voir du dark...
Au lieu de on, dis je. ;)
Mais il faut croire que tu as déjà lu l'histoire pour n'y voir que du sombre. :huhu:

Flashpoint? Ce n'est pas l'échec d'un héros. C'est Zoom qui profite de la tentative de Barry pour dégager les héros de l'histoire.
Forever Evil? ce sont les héros sur place qui ont été mis hors jeu et Batman va trouver l'aide dont il dispose (et il n'est pas d'accord).
Metal? Les héros ne savent pas que leurs actions pour repousser le Dark Multiverse allait provoquer cela. Mais bon, tu as raison, ils auraient dû laisser Barbatos saccager le Multiverse. Ah bin non, cela aurait darkisé le Multiverse... :D

Je sais que tu n'as pas trop le moral en ce moment mais projeter cela sur les lectures et, y voir des signes noirs, non je ne te rejoins pas là.
Tom King veut justement montrer comment les héros récupèrent dans un sanctuaire.
C'est plus comme la Night Nurse mais à plus grande échelle.

Ah oui, j'aurais du penser à Big Barda... Elle ressemble tellement pas à celle de Mitch Gerards.

[mellencamp]

Ce sera quand même pas Harley Quinn la directrice du "mental health center" (bien mise en avant sur ce poster)? Sinon faudra pas chercher bien loin pourquoi ça foire.:D

[Obsid]

Perso, je suis intrigué par les personnages avec les toges blanches et ce qui semblent être le même masque que celui tenu par Sup

[EsseJi]

Le seul truc que le masque m'évoque, c'est Lonnie Machin (nom culte s'il en est).

Pourtant il me semblait évident que ça soit celui du Psycho Pirate.

[JB]

Pourtant il me semblait évident que ça soit celui du Psycho Pirate.

Je ne me rappelais pas s'il avait une bouche à son masque

[wildcard]

Projet très alléchant. Juste dommage qu'il n'ait pas conservé le titre Sanctuary : c'était moins rebattu que de caser "Crisis".

J'espère aussi que Clay Mann assurera : à chaque fois qu'il a dessiné un script de King, il a fait des merveilles. Comme le projet est annoncé trois mois avant son lancement, je pense qu'il aura le temps de produire plusieurs épisodes d'avance.
Ou alors il ne fait qu'un arc, puis passe le relais à un autre dessinateur (comme dans le "Batman" de King) : ce ne serait pas choquant, ça permettrait de varier les ambiances, en fonction des patients.

[scarletneedle]

Selon certains sites US, ce serait une mini-série en 7 épisodes.
Les sollicitations de lundi préciseront la chose.

Parfait. 7 épisodes : c'est faisable pour Mann, qui, avec cette preview, montre qu'il est déjà dessus depuis un moment.
C'est bien aussi pour le pitch : une ongoing sur ce thème risquerait de ne pas tenir, mieux vaut miser sur une intrigue serrée - et qui n'empêchera pas d'y revenir à l'occasion pour ne pas épuiser le concept.

La rumeur Bleeding Cool du jiur : G.Willow Wilson sur Wonder Woman?

https://www.bleedingcool.com/2018/06/15/rumour-g-willow-wilson-on-wonder-woman/

[scarletneedle]

Le point Black Label du jour :



DC Black Label is a brand-new publishing imprint dedicated to giving premier writers and artists the chance to expand on DC’s unrivaled characters with unique, standalone stories set outside DC continuity. The imprint will be DC’s home for classy, collectible superhero stories aimed at mature readers looking to be challenged and surprised as they’re entertained, with an eye for the unique and remarkable. In that regard, each DC Black Label series will have a unique format and a release schedule designed to best serve the story and creative vision, with the first of the previously announced DC Black Label titles set to debut later this year:

BATMAN: DAMNED #1 – September 19, 2018 (bimonthly, three issues)
SUPERMAN: YEAR ONE #1 – November, 2018 (bimonthly, three issues)
THE OTHER HISTORY OF THE DC UNIVERSE #1 – December, 2018 (three issues)

While the new, upcoming series have gotten fans talking—and all of us here at DC are as excited to read them as you are, so we certainly understand—they’ll also be joined under the banner by some beloved existing titles that represent the DC Black Label spirit and mission. These were Black Label books before there was a Black Label, and can give fans a clearer idea of what to expect from the line as a whole.

The first out of the gate will be Sean Murphy’s BATMAN: WHITE KNIGHT, which recently wrapped up its eight-issue run. With its ruminations on the true meaning of justice and whether Gotham City’s crimefighters may be just as mad as its criminals, Batman: White Knight resonated with fans and critics alike, resulting in one of the most important and thoroughly original Batman comics released in quite some time. A crucial storyline that both redefines the Dark Knight and his cast of characters while taking them on an imaginative and wholly original adventure that wouldn’t be possible within DC Universe continuity, Batman: White Knight will be right at home at DC Black Label when the collected edition is released on October 9th.

In addition, fans can look forward to several of DC’s most acclaimed and influential comics getting a DC Black Label release as well. Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely’s ALL-STAR SUPERMAN, Darwyn Cooke’s DC: THE NEW FRONTIER and Mark Waid and Alex Ross’ KINGDOM COME will all soon be released under the imprint. They’ll also be joined by some historic work from legendary artist and writer Frank Miller, whose BATMAN: YEAR ONE and BATMAN: DARK KNIGHT: MASTER RACE will become part of the line as well, timed to the release of his new Superman: Year One series with John Romita, Jr.

In short, it’s a great year to be a fan of smart, genre-pushing comic books. If this is the first time you’re hearing about the new DC Black Label titles, you’ll definitely want to check out our earlier announcement for all the details. But for the rest of you, let us know what you think! Are you excited about the way DC Black Label is shaping up? Will you be grabbing the Batman: White Knight collected edition? Which of the new DC Black Label books are you most excited about? Sound off in the comments below!


https://www.dccomics.com/blog/2018/06/15/shedding-new-light-on-dc-black-label

DC Comics has announced release dates for the first issues of its inaugural round of Black Label titles, each of which will run for three issues.

Brian Azzarello and Lee Bermejo's Batman: Damned #1 will release September 19, with later issues releasing bimonthly. Frank Miller and John Romita, Jr.'s Superman: Year One #1 will now arrive in November as opposed to its intially projected August release date, and continue bimonthly. Finally, The Other History of the DC Universe #1 from writer John Ridley and an unannounced art team will debut in December, following a monthly schedule thereafter.

Previously announced but unscheduled titles include Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons by Kelly Sue DeConnick and Phil Jimenez; Batman: Last Knight on Earth by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo, and Wonder Woman: Diana's Daughter by Greg Rucka and an artist to be announced.

Check out more details on the announced titles here .

Additionally, DC will reprint several titles from its now defunct Elseworlds and All-Star lines under its Black Label imprint, all of which can be said to follow the same creator-driven ethos of the line.

The titles to be reprinted include Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's All-Star Superman, Mark Waid and Alex Ross's Kingdom Come, Darwyn Cooke's The New Frontier, Frank Miller and David Mazzuchelli's Batman: Year One, and Miller, Azzarello and Andy Kubert's Dark Knight III: The Master Race. Sean Gordon Murphy's Batman: White Knight will also be collected under the Black Label imprint, as previously reported.

No specific release dates for these reprints were announced.

Crotte pour les inédits mais ce sera sûrement publié ailleurs.
Et en comic shop pas content, c'est le fameux Barger jamais content DC mais qui commande les Variant Covers Marvel par palettes et que, toujours à l'affût d'une polémique (stérile), Rich Johnston cite sans jamais publier ceux qui sont d'accord... :D

Les inédits seront bien compilés.

Sinon, c'est "cool" de voir Andy Kubert planter New Challengers pour s'atteler à ce projet... :ouf:

Additional fan features include opportunities to connect with others in the DC community, earn premium rewards and participate in sweepstakes and contests.

“Developing new ways for consumers to access some of our most popular and iconic brands and franchises as well as exclusive new content whenever they want, on the devices they choose, is one of our studio's top priorities,” said Craig Hunegs, president, Warner Bros. Digital Networks. “The DC UNIVERSE platform gives fans a place to tailor their experience and build a direct relationship with DC in a way they never could before.”

Members of DC UNIVERSE can:

READ from an extensive list of curated comic books;
CONNECT with the DC community;
EXPLORE the latest breaking news and the ever-expanding DC encyclopedia;
WIN premium rewards and participate in sweepstakes and contests;

Fans can sign up today for an opportunity for beta access, which will open in August 2018. Beta access will give members a chance to test the new digital experience and provide valuable feedback on the early version of the service before it goes live later this fall 2018.

“DC UNIVERSE is so much more than a streaming service. It’s a welcoming place for everyone to immerse themselves in their own level of DC fandom, with the epic characters, stories, and experiences they have come to expect from DC,” said Jim Lee, chief creative officer and publisher, DC Entertainment. “We are investing in and creating original, high-quality shows including the new Titans series, and curating the most beloved nostalgic content, while at the same time elevating the comic reading experience to new heights. Nothing this robust has ever been offered to fans before.”Credit: Warner Bros. Televsion

WATCH

At the heart of DC UNIVERSE will be all-new exclusive original live-action and animated series based on DC’s iconic characters. Developed by Warner Bros. Television, Swamp Thing and Doom Patrol are scheduled to debut in 2019, following the dramatic, live-action adventure series Titans which premieres later this year. Warner Bros. Animation is also developing a slate of animated TV series based on existing fan favorites, including Harley Quinn and the highly anticipated third season of the popular Young Justice: Outsiders animated series which are both scheduled to debut in 2019.

Titans follows young heroes from across the DC Universe as they come of age and find belonging in a gritty take on the classic Teen Titans franchise. Dick Grayson and Rachel Roth, a special young girl possessed by a strange darkness, get embroiled in a conspiracy that could bring Hell on Earth. Joining them along the way are the hot-headed Starfire and loveable Beast Boy. Together they become a surrogate family and team of heroes. Doom Patrol is a reimagining of one of DC’s strangest group of outcasts: Robotman, Negative Man, Elasti-Woman and Crazy Jane. Led by the mysterious Dr. Niles Caulder they're called into action by the ultimate hero for the digital age, Cyborg. Banding together these rejects find themselves on a mission that will take them to the weirdest and most unexpected corners of the DC universe. Swamp Thing follows Abby Arcane as she investigates what seems to be a deadly swamp-born virus in a small town in Louisiana but soon discovers that the swamp holds mystical and terrifying secrets. When unexplainable and chilling horrors emerge from the murky marsh, no one is safe. Young Justice: Outsiders features the return of the fan favorite animated series with a huge cast of DC's most iconic young superheroes - plus brand-new characters, many of whom are just discovering their unique meta-powers and special abilities. Set against the backdrop of a rich, deep world that touches all corners of the DC universe, the season focuses on meta–trafficking, and an intergalactic arms race for control of these super–powered youths. Harley Quinn follows Harley’s adventures after she breaks up with the Joker and strikes out on her own in this new adult animated comedy. With the help of Poison Ivy and a ragtag crew of DC castoffs, Harley tries to earn a seat at the biggest table in villainy: the Legion of the Doom. An assortment of DC’s most beloved superhero films will also be available at launch for exclusive streaming windows, including all four original Superman movies as well as a selection of epic animated movies including Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, Green Lantern: First Flight, and Wonder Woman. The service will also feature classic TV shows, including the first two seasons of Batman: The Animated Series and the original Wonder Woman series available for the first time in HD.

READ

The DC UNIVERSE comics reader will include native, untethered access across devices from a smartphone or tablet to a living room screen rendered in vivid detail. Fans can scroll through some of their favorite comics from the comfort of their couch with family or friends and see this vibrant art form come to life like never before. A curated selection of thousands of DC comics will be available to DC UNIVERSE members from a library that includes decades of comics creations.

Members can read some of the most famous stories in comic book history such as the first 1938 Action Comics that introduced Superman to the world as well as Detective Comics #27 which first introduced Batman in 1939. Other titles include Geoff Johns and Jim Lee’s iconic Justice League (2011), Swamp Thing (2011) written by Scott Snyder, and Harley Quinn (2013) written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner. Rotating selections will cater to both members new to comics and passionate fans looking for hard-to-find titles. Comics can also be downloaded for reading offline on a smartphone or tablet.

“We wanted the DC UNIVERSE comic reader to be a blend of art and technology that would further enhance fans’ experiences of the live-action and animated programming on DC UNIVERSE,” said Dan DiDio, publisher, DC Entertainment. “This hand-curated selection from our decades of comic creations gives fans a thematic digital longbox to carry with them on the device of their choosing or lets them watch exclusive video content on a big screen followed by the comic that inspired it.”

CONNECT

The community within DC UNIVERSE will be a place where members can rate, create and share their own personalized playlists of their favorite heroes and villains. Members can personalize their profile and select their own avatar, be it Superman, Wonder Woman, or another heroic character or symbol. Designed to be a place for finding commonality and sharing favorite rivalries or the latest list of must-read comic books, members will have a forum for posting information, finding friendship and sharing their DC passions in a shared, moderated space within DC UNIVERSE.

EXPLORE & WIN

Latest news, an extensive DC encyclopedia, and chances to win round out the membership benefits of DC UNIVERSE. Short-form news, interviews and previews in daily video segments will keep fans up-to-date on the latest from all corners of the DC universe. The ever-expanding DC encyclopedia, to which fans can contribute, will house bios of hundreds of DC characters and places. In addition, members will have chances to win premium rewards, including game unlocks, first-chance access to pop-culture events, exclusive experiences and more.

SHOP

Exclusively for DC UNIVERSE members, DC Collectibles—the award-winning line of collectibles from DC Entertainment—will offer a wide range of new action figures and collector’s items based on DC’s iconic characters and stories. Members will have exclusive access to all-new six-inch Justice League Animated action figures based on designs from the fan-favorite animated series (2001-2004), starting in fall 2018. In addition to DC Collectibles, members will have access to a wide range of exclusive, curated and hard-to-find DC merchandise from a variety of licensing partners before the rest of the world.

The operation of DC UNIVERSE will be managed by Sam Ades, general manager and senior vice president, Warner Bros. Digital Networks, based in Burbank. The digital media executive formerly served as the senior vice president, direct to consumer, for DC Entertainment, where he was responsible for creating and executing DC’s digital marketing strategy.

Yanick Paquette, qui vit au Canada, confirme qu'il n'y a pas accès pour le moment.

Et mais maintenant que j'y pense. L'arrêt des Young Animal ça veux dire qu'on ne reverra pas Doom Patrol ? 8(:'(
