DC doesn't really tease books like that. Everything we hear pre-announcement is basically just stuff from the creators and rumors.
I would imagine he's referring to the ongoing layoffs and restructuring among other things.
All of this for a zombie book?
Really?
Age of X Man is already a bomba, calling it, there's no point to the X line. Only to appeal to the boneheads who still think it's 1995.
Again, you killed Blue and Red for this shit? I guess X-Force will fix things but man, this line is already flopping.

anybody?!?!?!

the new Spider Man comes out tomorrow... still debating if it is my last issue, or if there's genuine excitement for the next arc and I should stick around...
Honestly, I dropped it a couple issues ago and haven't really missed it. There are other books I'm enjoying much more. I think cape books in general just wear thin with me relatively quickly compared to other genres, outside of certain exceptions.
what are your exceptions?
the only superhero comic I genuinely like now is Batman. I also like Justice League due to how ridiculous it is lol, like every arc is some high stakes world or universe threatening thing.
ready to drop Avengers and JLDark, but also gonna stick with Fantastic 4 and Daredevil for a bit
Disappointed Dark Horse and Vertigo aren't in the poll. Love me some BPRD and pretty much all Vertigo.
Hulk, Martian Manhunter and Shazam are all really good rn if you're interested in checking out other current stuff.
Ms. Marvel is a book I've continuously bought since Kamala's first issue, except I did drop it for a bit during the arc where she went missing because it was dog shit. The current Snyder run on Justice League has been excellent as well. Also Immortal Hulk. I have high hopes for Ironheart new book, despite it only being two issues in. I was enjoying West Coast Avengers but I think I'm about to bail on that one.
And Kelly Thompson's Jessica Jones has been really REALLY good. Even better than the last Bendis run.
As someone who is jaded from all the nonstop retellings of Superman's origin, I actually liked it. It was kind of a hybrid of Post Crisis and New 52, even though it was written before the New 52 was conceived as an idea at all.
You're not feeling JLD? Interesting, most people seem to be loving it. And it's always interesting to meet someone who is still openly a fan of Tom King Batman on the Internet, you guys are becoming a rarer sight with each issue.
ahhh thanks! definitely gotta add some of these to the bucket list then lol.
I've still never even finished Alias tho... nor read thru the DC You Martian Manhunter that came out a few years ago, which I heard is also great. I have both of them though via either trade or comixology, perhaps I'll dig em up and read them soon.
hmmm well I'm not gonna drop JL Dark actually... I think it's fine. Plus it comes out monthly which doesnt cost me as much as ASM is >_< I do really enjoy the characters, can't go wrong with Zatana Swamp Thing and a monkey, but I wish they put Plastic Man in there coz I really didnt like Terrifics lol, and it'd be great to read something with him again.
I really do like King's Batman... it's so weird and fun! in retrospect I did not care much for the Snyder run...
I couldn't really see Plastic Man working on Justice League Dark, lol. Not exactly a tone-match.
It's a great show. The Armitidge season is solid, but the Scott and Stonebridge ones are great. It declined in quality with the new cast, but is still good. You're right that it's much better than 24 ever was.
7 Deadly Sins as well. But I didnt see the tpbs, only the single issues..
That
resurrection
Thats a damn shame given its one of the best spider books right now.
Who is the giant big head on that cover? Is that the person they just freed from the source wall? Forget her name already lol.
(Can't read the article atm)
Makes sense considering the Legion of Doom stuff coming up. But I hope they don't do another Villains month thing.
I'm glad Hunted is happening next because Spencer is definitely stretching things a bit thin with all the low-stakes, set-things-up-for-later arcs. Though the only one is cut would be the JJJ one, which felt really redundant and unnecessary.
Don't know what kind of genius at Marvel decided to tie in the relaunch with Spider-Geddon. It feels like #5 is real first issue but by now it's probably too late. Like here's a character super popular with non-comic readers let's connect it to some trash they don't care about.

Sounds like this is going to lead into a Villain centered on-going. Probably Legion of Doom book, but it might be even bigger than that?
I also really like this bit:
And Cheung is drawing the Batman Who Laughs portion of the book! I actually quite like this new villain. Yea hes another Joker, but the take is unique enough to stand out, and it says something that event the actual Joker seems to hate him lol.
Faces of Evil never really lead anywhere but I like themed months. But they should do more ambitious ones like back in the 90's. I'd love a return of the Pulp Adventures month. Or even the Ghosts branding. Those were dope.
What was the name of that Teen Titan/Young Justice member who was a ghost? IIRC there was a funny panel with her meeting Darkseid
And it was equally stupid there.
I'm mad cause I'd easily call Spider-Gwen top 2 of the spider books right now.
