DC Announces New Creative Teams on Detective Comics, Action Comics, & More
[[{“value”:”
DC’s All-In Initiative kicks off in October, with not only the introduction of the brand-new Absolute Universe (which has its own continuity), and which will be written by some of DC‘s brightest stars like Scott Snyder, Jason Aaron, and Kelly Thompson, but October will also bring brand-new creative teams to eight comic book titles that are part of the regular DC Universe.
October will serve as a jumping-on point for ALL of DC’s titles, including the books like Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman that are retaining their current creative teams, but most importantly, the jumping-on points will involve new creative teams on a bunch of books, with Detective Comics and Action Comics perhaps being the two most prominent titles with new creative teams.
