What Is DC COMICS: REBIRTH?

What Is DC COMICS: REBIRTH?

DC Comics co-Publisher Jim Lee just released a very interesting teaser. Those earlier rumors of DC embarking on a publisher-wide reboot or relaunch just became a little more real. Is it a good idea to make the comics more aligned with the DCEU films and DCTV programs?

Earlier today, a rumor from Bleeding Cool stated that DC Comics is lining up another publisher-wide reboot similar to 2011's The New 52. Moments ago, Jim Lee just released a teaser image, with just the word "Rebirth". Is DC truly going to reboot their entire line for the second time in five years?  We'll have more information for you as the situation develops.

I bet it's not gonna be as bad as people think. Who knows what they are really planning?

As long as Green Arrow isn't called Arrow and looks like Stephen Amell

The only way I'll buy this if if "Rebirth" means the rebirth of the old DCU. JSA, Legion of Superheroes, and canon intact. Bring the best of the N52 over as well. Get a set canon, return to the form everyone loves with legacies, families, and heroes and let's move onwards

They should call the reset DC: The Apology. Start with the real Lobo killing that lame Prince Lo'Bo.

We don't know if it's a reboot or a relaunch with more titles focusing on certain characters.

I highly doubt they'd reboot after only 5 years of continuity.

Either way, fanboys gonna whine.

Holy [frick] no.
Hopefully this is unrelated to the Bleeding Cool rumor.

I didn't know that! Nice!

I would never! Only way that could happen is if you set me up with a blind date with McGee or something

With Scott Snyder moving to Detective Comics I guess that will takeover Batman as DC's highest seller.

Everything Snyder touches with Batman in it is gold.

As long as they keep doing Suicide Squad, Swamp Thing, and Constantine I'll be fine and dandy.

And maybe bring back Jonah Hex? Please.

@JamesMann More King Shark in Suicide Squad. Catching up with the new52 run and he's my totes adorbz fave.

@Reasonnnn

King Shark was great in SS, I haven't started up the run that follows it (with Deathstroke and Black Manta) but I hope he at least has a part in it.
