A
legendary alliance is born!
BATMAN/SUPERMAN/WONDER WOMAN: TRINITY
Everyone
knows that the Man of Steel, the Dark Knight, and the Amazon Princess
have been teammates and allies for years. But where — and how — did those
relationships begin?
 For
the first time ever, the classic tale of Superman and Batman’s first meeting
with Wonder Woman can be told! In BATMAN/SUPERMAN/WONDER WOMAN:
TRINITY, a 3-issue Prestige Format miniseries written and illustrated
by comics great Matt Wagner (Mage, Grendel, SANDMAN
MYSTERY THEATRE, GREEN ARROW), this super—powered trio of heroes gathers
together — and battles side-by-side — for what would be just the first
of countless adventures.
It
all begins when a mysterious, billionaire eco-terrorist unearths what
potentially could be the greatest weapon the world has ever seen — the
juggernaut clone of Superman known as Bizarro! In his mad quest to remake
the world in his own image, this madman seeks out a third ally to bring
his dreams to fruition — a deadly female warrior to complete this circle
of evil. Together, the troika of terror casts an ominous shadow over the
very future of mankind…a future that appears to grow even shorter when
a massive array of nuclear weapons goes missing! Witness the birth of
a legendary alliance, as Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman join forces
to defend Earth against an apocalyptic fate!

BATMAN/PLANETARY:
NIGHT ON EARTH
They’re
the Archaeologists of the Unknown — seekers of truth in a world swirling
with unexplained mysteries. And when Jakita Wagner, Elijah Snow and the
Drummer travel to Gotham City, they mean business.
 Get
ready for the crossover that leads into the relaunch of the year’s most
anticipated returning series! BATMAN/PLANETARY: NIGHT ON EARTH,
by the critically acclaimed PLANETARY team of Warren Ellis (TRANSMETROPOLITAN,
GLOBAL FREQUENCY) and John Cassaday (PLANETARY, Captain America,
DESPERADOES), is a 48-page Prestige Format Special that brings together
two of comics’ hottest properties for multiverse-spanning bonanza!
Wagner,
Snow and the Drummer track an amoral killer with a personal distortion
field to Gotham City, prepared for battle. What they weren’t prepared
for was the Dark Knight! Of course, Batman doesn’t exist on the same Earth
as Planetary, which means the killer distortion field has worked in some
very strange ways! Now the device is pulling, twisting and shifting the
heroes through The Bleed, to untold versions of Gotham City…and Batman!

Punch
the clock with the World’s Mightiest Super-heroes!
JLA: WORKWEEK
Mix
a stand-up comedian and top comedy writer with the world’s most powerful
heroes. The resulting concoction is a hilarious behind-the-scenes look
at the real lives of super-powered beings!
 It
all comes together in JLA: WORKWEEK, a Prestige Format
special written by Patton Oswalt (BATMAN #600), best known as a Spence
on the CBS-TV series King of Queens. Oswalt has also written
for MAD TV and Austin Stories, and has mined super-hero
territory for humor in his stand-up act. WORKWEEK features art by Patrick
Gleason (JSA, HAWKMAN SECRET FILES) & Christian Alamy (ENEMY ACE:
WAR IN HEAVEN), and tells the story of Marlus Randone and his brush with
World’s Mightiest Heroes!
Randone,
along with the rest of his neighborhood, finds himself transported onboard
the JLA Watchtower as protection from an alien threat. Once the threat
is contained, the town is safely teleported back home — all except for
Marlus, that is! Notebook and disposable camera in hand, he sets out to
record and report whatever he can before he's caught.
What
follows is 168 hours of planet-wide threats that seem to go ignored, petty
squabbles that could decide the fate of the world, and a side of the Justice
League rarely glimpsed by ordinary citizens! Get ready for seven days
of DC's mightiest super-heroes doing some pretty un-mighty stuff, all
observed by an unwilling stowaway who just happens to self-publish a magazine
about super-heroes!

OUTSIDERS
The
lives of several heroes — and the super-teams they were a part of — were
shattered during the events of THE TITANS/YOUNG JUSTICE: GRADUATION DAY.
Now, the heroes left standing must pick up the pieces!
 In
OUTSIDERS, written by Judd Winick (GREEN LANTERN, Exiles)
with art and covers by Tom Raney (Uncanny X-Men, STORMWATCH)
& Scott Hanna (Amazing Spider-Man, Peter Parker: Spider-Man)
Nightwing and Arsenal must decide how a team of heroes can be reborn.
Arsenal
takes it upon himself to recruit a new group of heroes…and the ones he
finds are quite a crew! Grace, a super-strong bouncer working at a meta-human
club; Thunder, the mass-changing daughter of Black Lightning; Indigo,
the cyborg girl from the future; the shape-shifting Metamorpho; and Jade
— from the pages of GREEN LANTERN — are all waiting in the wings.
But
unfortunately for these newly assembled Outsiders, their first mission
— to protect President Lex Luthor — could be their last! Because what
do you get when a barrel of fierce monkey-warriors attack Manhattan? Mayhem!
Plus, there are plenty of startling developments as this all-new series
begins!

SUPERMAN
ARCHIVES Volume 6
HARDCOVER
In
1943, not only was Superman setting sales records in the comic-book world,
he was appearing in theaters, on the radio, in a novel, and in a myriad
of toys and games.
 All
this success energized the Man of Steel’s comics, as demonstrated by the
stories presented in SUPERMAN ARCHIVES Volume 6 — a 216-page
hardcover reprinting SUPERMAN #21-24, featuring stories by Superman creators
Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster and others, plus an introduction by comics
industry giant Steve Geppi, owner of Diamond Comic Distributors.
Both
the art and the stories showcased in this volume reflect a growing sense
of sophistication, with stronger characterization as well. Superman's
foes, too, were becoming more than just corrupt officials, blackmarketers,
fifth columnists, and toughs (although there are plenty of them in this
collection).
This
volume finds Superman facing off against The Prankster, investigating
a murder on a college campus, lifting the spirits of a suicidal baseball
player, confronting a modern Robin Hood, resolving the riddle of the gremlin-like
Squffles, and 10 other classic tales of the Man of Steel!

ARCHIVES Volume Six is a 216-page hardcover arriving in comic-book stores
June 4 with a cover price of $49.95 U.S.

Luthor is the most powerful man in Metropolis — the companies in his conglomerate
dominate travel, media, and technology. His fame soared after he helped
to rebuild the earthquake-damaged Gotham City. Where does he go from there?
The White House, naturally! And of course, besides bringing him victory,
Luthor’s campaign for President is calculated to bring maximum grief to
the Man of Steel. Who said politics wasn’t a dirty business?

TRADE PAPERBACK
Green
Lantern’s ring is the most powerful weapon in the universe, able to perform

can’t stop prejudice or hatred…
 The

Kyle
Rayner, a.k.a. Green Lantern, was starting to find success as a cartoonist
in NYC, and was given a young intern, Terry Berg, to alleviate his growing
workload. Unfortunately, Terry ultimately pays a terrible price for his
sexual orientation, becoming a victim of a hate crime that puts his life
in jeopardy. Kyle’s moral strength is tested when he goes after the punks
who beat Terry in a gripping, emotional rollercoaster ride that tempers

BATMAN
ILLUSTRATED BY NEAL ADAMS Volume 1
HARDCOVER
Over
the years, many artists have contributed to the look of one of the most
iconic characters in popular culture: Batman. The most influential and
popular may be Neal Adams, who in the late 1960s put the Dark Knight back
in the shadows and updated his image for a new generation of fans.
 Now,
for the first time, all of Neal Adams’s Batman work — covers and stories
— is being chronologically collected in three volumes, the first of which
debuts in September! BATMAN ILLUSTRATED BY NEAL ADAMS Volume 1
is an extraordinary 240-page hardcover featuring Adams’s contributions
from 1967 through 1969, showing the process of introduction, adaptation,
and innovation that the young artist brought to this legendary crime—fighter.
Along the way, Adams also illustrates many other DC heroes, including
Superman, The Flash, Aquaman, and The Teen Titans, as well as his signature
character, Deadman.
When
Adams burst onto the scene in the 1960s, his sense of design, color and
realism not only helped influence a generation of artists and excited
fans, and also inspired many writers to new heights of creativity — including
Bob Haney and other writers showcased in Volume 1. Adams provides a new
cover and introduction, and has gone back to tweak some of his early art
and re-color five of the eight stories presented here. Volume 1 reprints
material from BATMAN #200, 203 and 210; THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #75-76
and 79-85; DETECTIVE COMICS #370, 372, 385, 389, 391, and 392; and WORLD’S
FINEST COMICS #174-176, 178-180, 182-183, 185, and 186.

NINE LIVES
SOFTCOVER
Who
killed nightclub owner and chanteuse Selina Kyle?
 That
mystery is at the core of BATMAN: NINE LIVES, a 128-page
softcover version of the original hardcover Elseworlds graphic
novel that evokes the mood of a 1940s noir film. Written by Dean
Motter (TERMINAL CITY, Mr. X) with art by Michael Lark (GOTHAM
CENTRAL, SCENE OF THE CRIME) and a painted cover by Lark and Christopher
Moeller (JLA: A LEAGUE OF ONE), this gripping tale is told in a sideways
“landscape” format to better showcase the graphic, cinematic style of
the art.
When
the vigilante known as the "Bat-Man" investigates the reports
of a giant alligator in the labyrinthine Gotham reservoir, he discovers
a dead body — that of Selina Kyle, ex-girlfriend of the Bat-Man's alter
ego, Bruce Wayne. The Bat-Man is on the case to uncover what led to her
death, but so is Detective Richard Grayson, who must solve the mystery
before someone else dies. But with so many suspects, where does Grayson
begin?
