DC To Reboot Universe This September

I love DC Comics, its characters and its history BUT its moves like this that get them in trouble with their continuity drama.

After weeks of rumor, DC finally made official that it is relaunching their entire comics line with 52 first issues.

And leading the charge will be the launch of even longer-rumored Geoff Johns/Jim Lee collaboration on Justice League.

Relaunching a title with a new No. 1 sees a jump in sales but in most cases it’s a short-term effect.  Marvel Comics is guilty of renumbering titles all the time only to fall back, a year or two later, to the previous numbers.  Is DC really going to ignore Detective Comics’ issues which are running in the 880s and restart the comic?

Tune in this September.  In the meantime, an image of John and Lee’s Justice League has been release and it looks pretty awesome.  Check it out above.
