We've covered DC Comics' upcoming changes at great length. Put simply: 24 new series are launching, and 25 existing bestsellers are going in bold new directions.
DC has been pushing this new initiative hard, dubbing it "DC YOU" after the assertion that in this catalog, "there's a comic book for everyone." Clearly, the publisher is hoping to bring in new comic book readers by the truckload. To help facilitate this further, DC is marking down more than 1,200 digital comics to just $.99 throughout the month of June. These sale titles are comprised of back issues of comics that are relevant to the publisher's new direction.
Looking to get caught up? You'll find comics that set the stage for ongoing titles like Superman, Batman, Justice League, The Flash, Green Lantern, Harley Quinn and more.
But what about those 24 new comics series? To get you ready for that, DC is offering old titles that some of these new series are based on, like the original Prez from 1974, Section 8 and Omega Men issues going back to 1976. Other new titles are reconfigurations of existing characters like Red Hood/Arsenal and Harley Quinn and Power Girl, or offshoots born out of recent storylines, such as We Are Robin and Green Lantern: The Lost Army. The stories that gave birth to these stories are on sale as well.
Here's the complete list.
