FIRST RECORD-BREAKING
'DC REBIRTH' TITLE SOLID
IN ITS QUEST TO GIVE NEW READERS
[...like YOU...] 'JUSTICE'....
.
.
Sure To Be...
. .
THE BEST-SELLING COMIC OF 2011
[....you heard it HERE @ Image Collections first :o],
with sales possibly higher than any comic of the past 8 years, the
NEW DC-52's JUSTICE LEAGUE #1 welcomes back to monthly comics the
smashing style of modern North American superhero prototype artist,
.
JIM [ X-men, Batman:Hush ] LEE....
.
.
Comic 'Heroic Reboots' have paved the road
of the industry's history seemingly forever,
sometimes sparkling [...like DC's 1980s
'CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS' fixer-story,
...John Byrne's NEW AGE Superman classic
'MAN OF STEEL', ...George Perez's perfect
Wonder Woman....1990s Valiant-Gold Key,
Marvel's 1960s Launch, 2000's 'ULTIMATES',
& game-changer 'CIVIL WAR'....being just
some prime examples], while others
remaining nameless here, proved more
'speedbump-roadkill-retread'....
.
.
While revision is sometimes necessary,
as, unlike almost any other medium, sorting
through thousands of popular stories spread
over decades of monthlies, one-shots, and
graphic novels provided to a thirsty public
eager to be quenched with a reality-based continuity becomes a daunting
task very quickly...
.
.
It's no coincidenceTV's longest running prime-time entertainment program,
'The Simpsons', recently beating out 'Gunsmoke' for that title [both of whom
have had comic incarnations featuring new stories true to their source material,
GUN-over 30 issues/ THE SIMPSONS has over 160+ comics and counting...],
doesn't concern itself with integrating its stories together [..Homer fired again?]
as to do so would involve hours of fustration, and limit future storylines....
.
.
Hence sequential art's heroic tendencies to...
paint itself into a corner, both as a challenge for its
creators, and testament to its uniqueness as a
fulfilling storytelling medium...
.
.
Therefore, it is not only commendable, but close to
unbelievable that DC COMICS, by way of loved writer
Geoff [FLASH, GREEN LANTERN REBIRTH] Johns,
would begin it's pursuit of expectant reader's acclaim not
by focussing on the minute, but instead roll out
a complete revising of it's entire 'big-gun' line-up in...
'JUSTICE LEAGUE #1' as the
FIRST TITLE to hit the stands on AUGUST 31st,....
....leaving it's always opinionated yet adoring audience a
full week to mull over before the other #1's appear!
