Flash: Rebirth #6 delayed some more

**dumbstruck** · 12-18-2009, 07:58 AM

According to dccomics.com, Rebirth #6 has been delayed to March 24. March!! This type of delay is pathetic on DC's part. Is anybody even going to care anymore by the time this issue is released?

What the heck happened? Triple posted thread.

Ignore.

The art isn't worth the delay. This is getting ridiculous. I just hope this does not end up delaying the ongoing.

Well heres the deal...

Blackest Night Flash : Is falling between Reborn #5 and #6 currently. Johns and DC is letting that mini-series wrap 1st , then finishing Flash Reborn in March.

That way they keep a hot Flash series running til they launch the regular series in April or May.

Is this the official story? I didn't see anything explaining the delay. Only the solicitations.

That still doesn't explain the delay for series that was solicited as a MONTHLY.

I kinda miss the days where they would call Sal or John Buscema to finish a book so that it would ship on time.
Maybe DC should get Mark Bagely to finish the book.

This is unfortunate. First the series just gets buried amidst the BLACKEST NIGHT schedule, and now more delays.

Lame. I dropped this after the second issue anyway.

It seems to me that DC didn't originally plan to tie FLASH: REBIRTH in with BLACKEST NIGHT (at least not so extensively), but somewhere along the way, it was decided to link the two very closely.

It's creating a coordination nightmare, that's for sure.

What? That doesn't make any sense to me. Maybe I need to reread Flash: Rebirth #5 though.

Yep and the company has thoughts like Batman & Robin , it will fall after Blackest Night for Flash Rebirth #6. I can see why DC did this. It may have been solicted as a monthly but things change.
