February brings the second month of Dawn of DC, the publisher's new initiative that brings new titles with fan-favorite characters to DC's line, starting in January with Action Comics - and DC's just released full February 2023 solicitations dig even deeper into what's in store for Dawn of DC and beyond.
In February, the other titles of the Superman franchise will relaunch as Superman #1 and Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #1, tripling the amount of monthly Superman titles on offer from DC, counting the already Dawn of DC-ified Action Comics.
February also marks the second month of DC's Lazarus Planet event, in which portions of the DC Universe are remade and twisted in new ways through the power of Ra's al Ghul's life-giving Lazarus Pit, putting new spins on concepts and characters familiar to DC fans.
Meanwhile, in another corner of DC's publishing line, two Milestone heroes return in February in the crossover title Icon Vs. Hardware, while February also brings the Milestone anniversary anthology one-shot Milestones in History #1.
February's Milestone offerings don't stop there. There's also the start of the limited series Static: Shadows of Dakota, and The DC Universe by Dwayne McDuffie, a collection honoring late Milestone co-founder Dwayne McDuffie's contributions to the DC Universe.
