Exclusive: DC Comics Unveils Five of Their Post-CONVERGENCE Titles For June

DC Comics has major plans for its line-up after the massive Convergence event hits in April, as the company sheds its “New 52” branding and does a line-wide “mini-relaunch” of most of their titles. Now, we have a sneak peek at some of the first offerings that the newly revamped DC has to offer fans, starting with the first week of June.

While the post Convergence line-up won’t be a reset to continuity like The New 52 was, DC is looking to introduce a new, fresh perspective to their stable of books, as well as all-new titles to reflect a more diverse approach. Among the first few titles out of the gate is Action Comics, which appear to have a throwback style Superman (check out that 1940s S-Shield) plus mega-popular Batverse books like Harley Quinn, Grayson, and Batgirl, which are undergoing a creative resurgence right now. Also among the first week’s books is villain-turned-anti-hero Sinestro, who is looking for a traitor from within his own Corps.

Here are the solicitations and covers for five of their titles, with the first hitting on June 3, 2015.

    ComeOnMan, he’s Superman not the Punisher. I haven’t seen anything this stupid since they put tits on the batsuit.  Stupid just act like Supergirl got balls and give a cup while you’re at it.
