Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on comic news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email our team at rundown@multiversitycomics.com.
– After I hypothesized about the Flashpoint effect letting Arrow reset the deck a bit, Stephen Amell has come out and said that he doesn’t think that The Flash sort of resetting his personal history will do really affect the show. This isn’t really surprising, but it could also be bluster to throw us off the scent. I see what you’re doing there, Amell!
– Dan Abnett has signed a DC exclusive contract, and will be one of the busiest writers on their docket, as he is currently writing both “Aquaman” and “Titans” for ‘Rebirth,’ as well as guiding “Earth 2: Society” through the end of its run. Congrats, Dan!
– My local theme park is Six Flags Great Adventure, and it just debuted a new Joker ride, that looks like a vomit storm waiting to happen. Anyway, two people got stuck on it on its first day running. Yay safety!
– There’s going to be a new Mega Man cartoon! 10 year old Brian is flipping out!
– Valiant’s 50-artist “X-O Manowar” #50 cover has been released, and boy howdy those are some great artists on there.
– And, finally, ever wanted to know what Joe Prado or Ethan Van Sciver listen to? No, you haven’t? Oh…well, this is awkward because DC thinks you have, and has created a playlist just for that.
