DC Comic March 2009 Solicitations (Full)

edited January 2009 in Graphic Violence
Newsarama's put up a taste of what to expect in March from DC. Thought I'd put up the three more interesting covers: Superman, Action Comics and Teen Titans.

    Looks like Superman and Batman are both disappearing for a while. Can Wonder Woman fill their shoes?
    Probably not

    Also, Rucka writing Action Comics? Yes please!

    Oh. Oh man. I think that's Static Shock's silhouette on Teen Titans.

    I think that top one is riding on a trashcan lid or whatever so probably... unless you mean the sexy one. o_O

    Yep. As far as I can tell it's Static riding on his typical trashcan lid/disc thingy. You can see his dreadlocks flying in the wind and electricity flying off his hands.

    Static yessssssss.

    Not sure what to make of Kid Eternity joining the team though, nor am I sure who that is next to Wonder Girl. Super Girl would be the obvious choice but no skirt.

    The joke is that his name is not Static Shock

    Its just Static

    It was never Static Shock that was just the name of the show

    So it looks like the Teen Titans line-up will be Wonder Girl, Blue Beetle, Red Devil, Kid Eternity, Bombshell, Miss Martian, Static, and a girl with exposed hair and long sleeves. Going off this cover there are a few possibilities; Supergirl, Traci 13, Ystina, or Misfit.

    Either way, I guess that whole push to make the Teen Titans an A-list mini-JLA's been all but abandoned with Robin, Superboy, Kid Flash, and the original Titans lineup removed from the team.

    Having Static in a McKeever-penned Teen Titans is like having Heath Ledger rise from the dead to star in a new Mary Kate and Ashley direct-to-video feature. It's like, yeah it's cool he's back and all, but you'd rather see his return occur under slightly better circumstances.

    Given that they're hiding MM (who I'm pretty sure is the flying girl) I'm guessing maybe she's going white? I vote Traci 13 for the other.

    SIMON DARK #18
    Written by Steve Niles
    Art and cover by Scott Hampton
    Can there truly be life after death? Simon and his family of friends must cope with the gruesome aftermath of a profound loss. But the load may be too heavy for Simon’s shoulders to bear. Has his time as Gotham’s darkest protector come to a close? Must he give up his dreams of a normal life?
    FINAL ISSUE • On sale March 11 • 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US

    The fact that Simon Dark has lasted so long is amazing. I like it, but it doesn't seem like the type of comic that would do well coming from a mainstream company.

    I know! Every time solicitations come out I'm so surprised that it's not canceled

    which means it will be canceled with the coming solicits

    Pretty sure that's Arkillo and they're fighting for control of the Sinestro Corps. Notice Arkillo's missing middle finger on his right hand.

    It seems like Jurgens is competing with Johns to have the most drawn out arc on an ongoing book. But I'm glad he's using plot points from the four Dixon/Remender issues, so they don't seem like such filler in retrospect.

    I do wish Booster Gold would get a new artist though. Not that I don't like Jurgens, and not that the dude shouldn't be able to work on the character he created, but his style's very conventional and a bit boring. I'd love to see some of the 52 guys, like Chris Batista or Justiniano, take over for an arc.

    So the kid on the Ben 10 covers name is Albedo.

    Can we look forward to him laughing maniaclly as he rips his own head off, crushes it, then regenerates?

    Because I would pay to see that.
