    Default Bleedingcool: In April, DC Comics Brings Us “Holy Sh!t Month”?

    Comic Books are fun, Comic Book fans not so much.

    "Blasphemy"? I dunno, Batman and Superman announcing they're better than Jesus?

    Oh, joy. DC needlessly reacting to Marvel's temporary rise due to the freshness of Marvel NOW?

    Why can't they just concentrate on good, solid stories instead of these flash-in-the-pan gimmicks?

    Because nobody buys good, solid stories.
    It doesn't matter what the writer, artist, or editor had in mind when they created it, or what they said in an interview;
    all that matters is what is on the page.

    The DC is so shortsighted. Is this apart of "Villain month"?

    That's just truth in advertising.

    Each cover features a villain killing their respective hero nemesis?

    My guess is every cover is a pic of the writer looking at the final issue going holy sh!t this isn't what I wrote when I turned in the script...

    This would explain why they're taking so long to release their solicitations in comparison to last month.

    It's April Fool's month, the covers are just going to be tittilations of things that aren't happening, IMO.
    Pull list:
    Adv. Time, Avengers AI, Batgirl, Batman '66, B & R, BOP, E 2, Fearless Defenders, He-Man, JL: Dark, Katana, Shadowman, Swamp Thing, The Ultimates, Ult. Spider-Man

    That's probably it. Some deaths or other wild changes that don't actually take place at all inside.

    So, par for the course, right? That's what they've been doing for a LONG time.

    No, blasphemy as in "holy shit". Hmm. I should rephrase.
