Chill the fuck out, listen to creators:
gothamspoilers:
Everyone, I know the news is big, but some of the negative reaction is just outlandish. All I’m going to say is just: chill the fuck out. If you need some reassurance, have a look at what some of the creators have to say:
Scott Snyder, writer - Detective Comics:
TEC fans: the DC REBOOT will NOT affect our story. We’ve been planning on wrapping up the black mirror story in...

Hey, Tumblr Whovians, an idea?
fiveroundsrapid:
So Saturday, we find out who River is. Cue Tumblr exploding, yes? Yes.
And, as River has taught us well —
So I propose that everyone do their best to be courteous — but that doesn’t mean you have to keep from posting your flailings, cursing, reactions, etc.
If everyone just takes the extra half second and tags all their gifs, graphics, and capslocked text posts with #a good...

Two further points...
1 - If DC get this right, if they market it correctly, and their digital prices are right, then they could afford to lose every single one of their existing readers and it will still be a huge success for them and revitalise the industry. This is not about you, this is not about us, this is not about comic fans…this is about an industry changing or dying. The status quo is NOT an option....

My thoughts on the DC thing...
I’m seeing a TON of bitching online about what DC are doing. Yes, I had a little moan earlier, before I saw that the coming reboot was tied into a significant shift in the method of distribution.
Firstly, we don’t currently know very much about what is actually going to happen. I’m personally hoping that this is a fairly soft reboot, rather than a very hard “nothing that...

Flashpost: DC Confirms Full Reboot: September... →
Okay, this makes a hell of a lot more sense now.
The fact that they are switching to same day digital releases is a VERY good thing.
Now new #1s make sense, as they’ll genuinely be reaching out to a new market.
Well done, DC, well done.
Just, you know…keep the existing creative team on Batgirl, eh?

ageofreason:
NORTH LOUISIANA has been described as “the buckle on the Bible Belt” – and not without good reason, as high school student Damon Fowler at Bastrop High School has discovered to his cost.
On the eve of his graduation, the atheist student contacted the school superintendent to let him know that he opposed the inclusion of a prayer at the graduation ceremony. He pointed out that...

Dear mainstream comic book industry...
Stop crafting “perfect jumping on points.”
Just create really good comics that people want to read.
The reason sales are so low isn’t because people are afraid to read comics that have a big number on the cover. Heck, my first issue of Uncanny X-Men was #227…the last part of a crossover! It was great, and I was hooked. There are a LOT of reasons that sales are low. The...
Flashpost: The Issue One Renumbering Of The DC... →
“Every comic continuing from September will be relaunched with a shiny #1. Every. Single. One. With no current plan for the renumbering to reverse to any so-called “legacy” numbering.
And with those issue one renumberings, will come a new rejigged status quo. And yes, characters will be changed. Some may no longer exist. There will be new books, new creators, new teams, new characters and...

Alot of 80’s power ballads?
Yep. Mixed with classic nineties rock.
And maybe the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Although I’ve been told that I shouldn’t drive and sing Sweet Transvestite at the same time…

Not looking forward to the loooong drive there and back on my own. But, hey, I expect I’ll load up my iPod with good driving songs and...
