DC The New 52 "0" Month confirmed

This coming September, DC Comics will be celebrating the first year anniversary of launching their "NEW 52" initiative of comics. As part of the celebration and to introduce new titles into the fold, the publisher has officially announced the recently rumored "0" Month, wherein all DC Comics The New 52 issues will be numbered at zero starting this September (much like the 90's Zero Hour era). All titles, like Justice League, Batman, Batman Inc., Superman, and Wonder Woman will be given a #0 issue that month, and each will either tell an origin story or back-up tale that fills the gaps between running storylines.

Four new titles will also be debuting at #0 that month, and they are Talon, Sword Of Sorcery, The Phantom Stranger, and Team Seven! Be sure to check out more info via the source post at DC The Source, and get the scoop there!

DC The New 52's "0" Month begins this September!

DC Comics to release #0 issues for New 52 Anniversary

Come September, DC Comics will be celebrating one year of it's launch of The New 52 Universe, which practically rebooted its entire comic book universe and gave a fresh new take to most of its character roster. To commemorate the occasion, the publisher will be releasing a full wave of #0 books of each of their titles, with adventures that precede and take place before the actual events that occur in the #1 issues. Regular numbering for all books will cease that month, and will resume once more with #13 on October. As these books will detail origin stories and flashbacks, it sounds very reminiscent of DC's "Zero Hour" event back in the 90's, which bore a similar marketing strategy that aimed to attract old and new readers into the fold. Whether or not this plays into current events, including the impending 2013 event "Trinity War", remains to be seen. For more on the story, visit the source post at Bleeding Cool and Comic Book Movie.


Expect the New "Zero Hour" 52 to hit all issues of DC Comics in September!
