Launching as a series of one-and-done books about characters who don’t have books of their own or enough clout to maintain their own titles, similar to “DC Universe Presents,” the books first story will be about Eternity (assumedly of the Kid variety). The issue will be written by Jeff Lemire with illustrations by Cully Hamner, and finds police coroner Christopher Freeman finding he has the ability to resurrect the dead, using those abilities to resurrect victims to help find their murderers and gain closure.
From there the book will feature stories about characters like Madame X, Rose and Thorn, and Looker, assumedly with the general hope that these characters could find homes elsewhere from various creative teams. Whether or not any of these characters are able to hold their own agains a character like Batman is obviously up for debate, but kudos to DC for giving it a shot.
