Ok, I’m really excited about this. starting July 8th Dc is starting a weekly series called Wednesday Comics. Each week a variety of artists and writers are going to provide one page stand-alone(-ish) comics featuring a bunch of the DC heroes you know and a lot you don’t know. They are approaching this like the Sunday newspaper comics so anyone will be able to jump in at anytime without needing a lot of backstory and who everyone is and what’s going on. I think this is a great idea and gives a lot of exposure to different kinds of writing, artwork and characters.

Here is a list of the artists and characters that will be featured in the first 12 weeks:

• BATMAN, WEDNESDAY COMICS‘ weekly cover feature, by the Eisner Award-winning 100 BULLETS team of writer Brian Azzarello and artist Eduardo Risso
• ADAM STRANGE, by writer/artist Paul Pope (BATMAN: YEAR 100)
• METAMORPHO, written by New York Times best-selling writer Neil Gaiman with art by Eisner Award-winner Michael Allred (Madman)
• THE DEMON AND CATWOMAN, written by Walter Simonson (Thor, MANHUNTER) with art by famed DC cover artist Brian Stelfreeze
• DEADMAN, written by Dave Bullock and Vinton Heuck, art by Dave Bullock
• KAMANDI, written by Dave Gibbons (WATCHMEN, GREEN LANTERN CORPS) with art by Ryan Sook (Buffy The Vampire Slayer, ARKHAM ASYLUM: LIVING HELL)
• SUPERMAN, written by John Arcudi (The Mask) with art by Lee Bermejo (JOKER)
• WONDER WOMAN, written and illustrated by Ben Caldwell (Dare Detectives)
• GREEN LANTERN, written by Kurt Busiek (TRINITY, ASTRO CITY) with art by Joe Quiñones (TEEN TITANS GO!)
