Viewing in the particular font I've selected, your "DC" looked like "OC" for a moment and I had thoughts of Seth and Anna doing Comic Con.

To me, solicits are like TV Guide.

Personally, I think that when the solicits are available, it's the equivalent of a promo at the end of a TV show.

Though I can also see the argument that no, you have to expend some effort to find the solicits that are a couple of months out, like looking for interviews with Joss et al., and that just the material at the end of the comics should be discuss-able.

So is this the big we brought back Larry the Lobster Jason Todd that I've kept hearing rumours of?

Frankenbuddha, what I'm referring to isn't Jason Todd, but a different dead character. Though Jason may well reappear, too, since Hal Jordan is back and it seems like more dead characters are returning than in Farscape.

Does this mean Donna Troy is going to come back too? Can I just note once again how much I dislike the disrespect of DEATH as a narrative trope? Some things ought to be consequential.

Heh. Actually, there's some speculation that that might happen. At least to some degree. t edit That was in response to Frankenbuddha.

In response to Hec, let me link you to the cover whose spoilertasticness made me laugh my ass off: [link]

It's the equivalent of "Spike? Coming to Angel? But he's DEAD!"

Some blurbage from the aforementioned spoilery comic: DC SPECIAL: THE RETURN OF DONNA TROY #1

A 4-issue miniseries written by Phil Jimenez that unites artistic titans Jose Garcia-Lupez and George Perez for the first time and heralds the triumphant return of one of the DCU's most popular characters! She was raised as a goddess, linked by blood to Wonder Woman, crowned as a Titan among both mortals and gods -- but Donna Troy's story is the triumph of the human spirit.

Torn from Earth by the events of Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day, Donna Troy has reemerged among the Titans of Myth as Troia, Goddess of the Moon. But memories of a different life haunt her as she leads the Titans of Myth in the final battle of a long campaign of interplanetary conquest, gathering weapons, warriors, and worshippers to fulfill a mission she has begun to doubt. It will take the combined might of the Outsiders and the Teen Titans to solve this cosmic mystery and reveal Troia's true destiny to her: a cosmic hero destined to unite legions against a threat to the entire universe!

The Return of Donna Troy is a new beginning for Donna Troy -- and a stunning prologue of things to come throughout the entire DCU!

Heh. The Death of Captain Marvel.

Hold it, hold it, back up. Who invited the Hulk to a funeral...?

and also...

What kind of help do you imagine Thor's offering there? I mean, yes, I know his alter-ego is a doctor (ahem, A GENERAL PRACTITIONER OR SOMETHING, FOLKS!), but come on, that's Don Blake. This is the God of Thunder, and I have it on good authority that his usual means of solving a heady conundrum is to do something as understated as drinking all the seas.

"Mayhaps I might smite yon cancer with mine mighty enchanted hammer, friend Beast!"
"No, Thor, cancer's ... cancer's too small to hit with a hammer, sorry."
"Mayhaps the elves of Diggendoggenheim may forge a TINY HAMMER with which to smite yon foul rot!"
"Look, your heart's in the right place, but really ..."
"I could strike the cancer with lightning! Or, oh wait, how about I drinks it under yon table! Arf arf arf!"
"You ... Listen, you already suggested that ..."
