And now for Solicitations that are actually in the future. May was a big month for the New 52 with brand new story arcs in Justice League and Justice League Dark plus the launch of the Earth 2 series. The following month sees the second parts of each of those stories. The biggest new character appearance is the new Earth 2 Flash. I’m really not sure what JLI is evolving into, but as we’ll see soon as it doesn’t have that many issues left.
