DC’s Futures End Doesn’t Begin On Free Comic Book Day. It Begins Tomorrow.

Tomorrow sees the launch of Aquaman And The Others, the new Aquaman monthly comic from Dan Jurgens, Alan Medina
and Ed Tadeo. Some may wonder if there’s room on DC’s stands for a second monthly Aquaman title.

Well, this should answer those queries, certainly for the launch tomorrow. Because this is where Futures End begins. And if you are planning to follow that story, the weekly series and spin offs, the Five Years Later event in September that Bleeding Cool has been talking about for six months now… it all starts tomorrow. After all, Dan Jurgens is co-writer of that project as well.

So, yes, odds are that retailers may not have quite as many copies as they may suddenly need. I do hope DC overprinted… And expect a big bump on orders for issue 2.

This better be a strawberry floating april fools

the idea that a major dc event would be launched through a 2nd aquaman series, sounds like an april fools joke....

also crazy good sale on comixology atm, the entire ultimate spidey every single issue for 99 cents. Or what looks like a web exclusive of the entire thing bundled for 99 dollars.

there's a GotG prelude infinite comic out today as well, by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning. - read it, a bit gooseberry fool really.

axel alonso has been tweeting some of the art from Original Sin. Sweet christmas.

looks like aquaman and the others #1 is key if you're getting future's end got a copy off a place in space just in case

Superman Unchained #8 And #9 Cancelled… For Now



Jim Lee just taking the piss now.

[Memento Mori]

I think he's behind on Unchained because he's finishing off Dark Knight Boy Wonder and Batman Europa.


Yeah.

[Mafro]

Please tell me no one here was dumb enough to completely miss the point of Moon Knight #2. I've already seen it go completely over the head of people on GAF and CBR.

Not really sure what to make of Inhuman #1. Wasn't good, wasn't bad. Don't know if I'll enjoy an Inhuman book that doesn't focus on the main, established Inhumans.

New Deathlok Series And Hulk Vs Iron Man From Marvel’s Original Sin

Beginning in the Original Sins anthology series, and nicely timed with the character’s appearance in Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., we’ll be getting a new Deathlok series spinning out of the Original Sin event, along with four other titles.

As well as giving us a central Young Avengers story by Adventure Time‘s Ryan North and Ramon Villalobos, we will have a Lockjaw story by Stuart Moore and Rick Geary, J. Jonah Jameson by Dan Slott and Mark Bagley, Inhumans by Charles Soule, Doctor Doom by James Robinson and a Howard The Duck story too.

We can also look forward to the Original Sin #3.1 and #3.2 point titles (and possibly #3.3 and #3.4 as well) as being a Hulk Vs Iron Man story by Mark Waid, Mark Bagley, Kieron Gillen and Luke Ross.

And as Marvel promises an eighth female lead title, Brevoort is quoted as saying “The move towards diversity wasn’t like a marketing gimmick. We didn’t do it the once and we were done with it. It’s not a changing philosophy, it’s an acknowledgement of the world we live in. This is the world of the 21st century. There are people we should be representing more in our publishing line and we’re going to do that more as we move ahead. That’s just living in the world of 2014.

I'm getting quite excited for Original Sin.

Looks like Deadpool features pretty heavily in it.

Aye and it's a storyline the creative team wanted to explore, how wade's parents really died, so it's not just some shitty event tie in (cough fear itself cough)

[Irene Demova]

Black Widow #5 (and the series as a whole) is so pretty, I'm tempted to look at everything else Noto has worked on just for the art

Please tell me no one here was dumb enough to completely miss the point of Moon Knight #2. I've already seen it go completely over the head of people on GAF and CBR.

How? It was a really simple issue

Nightwing To Be Replaced By Grayson, And A New Teen Titans For The New 52

And as for his Nightwing subscription? That would transfer to a title called Grayson.

[Memento Mori]

I thought Batman and Superior were this week. Buying nothing again as I'm trade-waiting Eternal.

[Pedz]

Who or what is Doop?

[HM]

Who or what is Doop?

2nd only to Cyclops as the greatest ever marvel character.

This week:

All-New X-Factor #6
All-New X-Men #25
Batman Eternal #1
Deadpool #27
East of West #11
Iron Fist Living Weapon #1
Iron Man #24

[Pedz]

May grab Doop #1 then.

[Pedro]

Who or what is Doop?

The best character from Milligan's X-Force/X-Statix run. Also, awesome.

I met Milligan at Thought Bubble and he was a really nice fella as well.

[Pedro]

I'm sitting out Batman Eternal for better or worse. I really don't want to encourage DC and weekly titles that aren't a limited event (a-la Wednesday Comics).
