The Dibny's After 52?

[elise]

I just finished reading 52 and was wondering if the Dibny's have appeared at all afterwards?I haven't been following Countdown at all, so was wondering if maybe I've missed it or something. It seems like they were set up nicely for their own series, and I think that would be great. Does anyone know if there are any plans for this?

Given their status at the end of 52, I doubt the Dibny's have appeared anywhere.

They were mentioned in Blue Beetle, but only in the past tense.

They were mentioned in Booster Gold on one of Rip's chalk boards, I believe.

well i don't know seeing how they are bleeding demised.

[elise]

Bleeding demised?

O_o :p

They both are dead but it looks like they're going to be ghost-detectives together or something of the sort.

They are not what you are expecting

I think Waid wanted to do some sort of Ghost Detectives miniseries or something after 52, but DC wasn't that keen on it at the time. Now that he's EIC of Boom! Studios, I'm guessing they won't be doing much with Sue & Ralph in that format...

yea.. but that was a different earth. Earth 51.

[elise]

Oh. *sigh* Well then, that sucks... :(

52 wanted to give the illusion Ralph and Sue were reunited in some sort of afterlife happy ending, but in fact they've just been relegated to Comic Book Limbo, from which I doubt they'll come back any time now. If DC really had any plans for them, they wouldn't be dead in the first place.

That sounded like a cool idea. I even had a similar idea.

Comic Book Limbo is where you usually go if your character is happy, so I have no problems with that. Or even if they end up living "happily ever after". I do think the concept is interesting enough to warrant them having a mini-series though.

I think John Rozum would be a great choice to write the Dibnys as Ghost Detectives.

Since they showed up on Rip Hunter's new chalkboard I wouldn't be surprised if they ended up playing a role in the new Booster Gold series. I know not everything on the "52" chalkboard got addressed but that was a four-writer collaboration and things changed as the story developed. Since Johns and Katz are the only ones in charge of Booster I imagine they'll keep to a tighter plot.
