While DC's All In initiative launches in October, it's in November that things really get interesting. In the new Absolute universe we'll see the launch of the Absolute Superman ongoing series, which offers a fresh new take on the Man of Steel, as well as more Absolute Batman and Absolute Wonder Woman. Meanwhile, back in the core DC universe, we'll see the belated and much-anticipated return of the Justice League in a new ongoing comic from Mark Waid and Dan Mora.
The JLA isn't the only returning superteam, however. Sweet Tooth writer Jeff Lemire is heading up a new series focused on the Justice Society of America alongside artist Diego Olortegui that looks very promising. And while we're talking about new launches, there's also the recently announced Batgirl, The Question, and Black Canary: Best of the Best books, plus a brand new Black Lightning comic from Brandon Thomas and Fico Ossio.
So, another packed month from DC! And that's not taking into account cool things like the final issue of John Constantine, Hellblazer: Dead in America, or the new Milestone Universe limited series, The Shadow Cabinet. Whatever you pick up in November, happy reading.
