Hello, Fellow Book Worms and Book Dragons!
And once again the time has come for DC Comics to make a clean sweep of their universe and start anew. But what makes DC Rebirth different from Crisis, Infinite Crisis, Flashpoint, Zero Hour, and the multiple other "reboots"? Apparently they are listening to their audience, and working to bring back the DC Universe we knew and loved from the 1970s through the 1990s. And this week we will be introduced to yet again another incarnation of our favorite titles with Rebirth #1. I have high hopes for this new relaunch. Time will tell.
Here are my pics for Wednesday, May 25, 2016:
