Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email me at david@multiversitycomics.com.
– The New 52 becomes less and less, as now Dial H, Threshold, Demon Knights and Legion of Super-Heroes have been canceled by DC. The reason was obvious: they weren’t selling. The books will be ending on issues #15, #8, #23 and #23 respectively, so if you’re like our guy Vince Ostrowski, you’ll start mourning their loss immediately.
– Matt Kindt wrote a lovely little piece for Huffington Post about the job of being a comic book writer/artist. In it, he talks about how it’s the best job in the world, but not only that, how it has irreversibly changed how he himself enjoys comics and movies and TV. In fact, how it’s made it so he doesn’t enjoy them at all.
– Just a day remains in “Code Monkey Save World” from Greg Pak, Jonathan Coulton and friends, and if they hit $325,000, they have another story adaptation to add to the equation. Check out the added stretch goals at the Kickstarter page, and contribute if you haven’t yet!
– As someone who is getting married this summer, I have to say this is totally cool. A couple bonded over their love of Nightwing and Batgirl, and they carried that love into their actual ceremony. Check out the images at Robot 6.
– Rafael Albuquerque joining B.P.R.D. on covers with issue #110? Yes, please.
