March showers in the DC Universe bring the early stages of Dawn of DC, including the new Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent limited series, Lazarus Planet: Revenge of the Gods, and the Unstoppable Doom Patrol.
Things are always busy in Batman's world and March includes the finale of the One Bad Day one-shots - Ra's al Ghul. And DC is really celebrating spring with the one-shot special The Legion of Bloom...
...no, that isn't a typo.

Ra's will remove Batman from the equation and save the world, re-creating it in his image and bringing the peace and prosperity all the good-hearted souls of this Earth deserve. Don't miss this epic tragedy from the all-star creative team of Tom Taylor (Nightwing, Superman: Son of Kal-El, DCeased) and Ivan Reis (Detective Comics, Blackest Night): the last of the One Bad Day specials, and one of the most epic to date.
