It has been rumored for several weeks, and today it's official: By the start of September, Electricity Comics is relaunching its entire Electricity World type of super hero comics with new #1 issues. The surprising part: The whole line may also be available electronically at the time of every issue's release in comics stores.
The reboot starts on August 31, using the final problem from the Flashpoint crossover miniseries and also the first problem of the new Justice League Of America series by DC's chief creative officer Geoff Johns and co-writer Jim Lee. Through the finish of September, there'll apparently be 52 new or recently renumbered ongoing Electricity World series, most of them featuring superheroes in costumes recently remodeled by Lee, and all sorts of apparently a minimum of partially restarting their continuity. (The amount 52 is significant inside the company's super hero comics: It's the amount of parallel galaxies by which their figures live.)
Electricity and Marvel Comics have both been reticent release a new comics through digital services "day-and-date"--that's, on the day that they are launched in shops merely a couple of game titles happen to be available this way so far, making this a large step.
The majority of the Electricity line's August issues appeared like these were all in all the continuing plotlines. One major exception is Batman Corporation., among the company's best-selling game titles, which is ten issues into author Grant Morrison's two-year master plan once the line-wide reboot happens. Most probably, among the new series starting in September is going to be J.H. Williams III and Amy Reeder's lengthy-looked forward to Batwoman, that has been pressed back frequently in the last year.
