Dave Rates “DC New 52″ for 2011
The biggest story in the comic book world in 2011 was DC NEW 52. (We really appreciate DC Comics stepping up with something special for Captain Blue Hen’s 30th anniversary!) The new comics brought attention to the industry, with new and lapsed readers coming in to the store. Personally, I went from reading 2 DC titles to reading 2 dozen DC titles!
The following is the list of all 52 new titles from DC Comics. The list goes from my favorite (#1) to my least favorite. #1-27 (!) are on my reading list. I have given up on the bottom 25 for now, but I’m keeping my eye on them For this installment, I include notes on movement on the list.
