DC's New Corner Boxes, Replacing the REBIRTH Banner — 12/06/2017 Releases

Last NYCC, DC Comics announced that the Rebirth banners on the top of the covers of its mainline ongoing titles with new corner boxes that have a consistent design starting this December. Here are the first issues of the currently running titles with the new corner boxes in the first week of the latter's implementation.

...

The Green Lantern label not being green is triggering me so badly.

>bat symbol
No thanks

...

I assume the Bat symbol is only for Batman?

Supes, Flash GL, etc will use their own symbols?

...

>Batman and Nightwing's symbols in their respective corner boxes are the same
Find out when will Detective Comics, and the two Batgirl titles get the same.

So will every title have its own little logo, or are they grouped by "families"?

Action Comics will most likely get the same corner box symbol.


I also forgot Batwoman and Batman Beyond

It's because they're part of the bat group, dummy.

...

Well I guess answers my question. I guess it's really no more egregious than the fact that they literally put the bat logo behind any character in the batfam's title.

>INB4 SKWAD getting the same corner box symbol

...

This is the only miniseries issue among those that are slated to release on December 6 to have the corner box.

Those taglines are really cheesy. Why are they doing this?

Why the "Universe" though?

This is the first mainline DC one-shot with the new corner box.

I like it a lot. I mean, the original Rebirth banner was npretty good looking, but this new one isn't bad at all.

That's it for now. More will be added to this compilation image and OP GIF in the following weeks.


Probably JLA may get the JL shield for its corner box.


I got these from comiXology.


>he doesn't know for long

"Universe" indicates mainline/main continuity

Rebirth is shit and DC are really desperate.

The cynic in me thinks that it's a marketing ploy to tie it to the DCEU (before they knew that JL might kill the whole thing). They've used the term DCU in the past, but it's never been as front and center as this.

It's subtle communist propaganda, look at how they wrote that UN it looks like a D it's meant to make you think "Diverse"

This is pretty neat.

>Why are they doing this?

Because it's fun.

>The cynic in me thinks that it's a marketing ploy to tie it to the DCEU
I have no puking gif for now. This will do. Synergy is shit.

So what if it's marketing. They're trying to make the books feel like they are connected so that you buy more books, instead of treating each book as its own isolated thing where you don't need to get anything else. 101 Marketing.

>this is what Sup Forums actually believes

>Using the movie logo like the Avengers A
I mean it's a good logo, but is that really the hill you want to die on?

Because DC has more than one imprint.

...

I fuckin' love it.

>I started reading comics because of movies
stop showing how new you are

>movie logo
Talk about betting on the wrong horse

>trinity snowflake
C-can I say that at least its creative?

Holy shit I didn't even realize. A+

They are fucking ugly.

N, they will use the bat logo for other families.

>green lantern

>not green

One job.

Gotta support Saint in his downtimes

>no story title at the top
REEEEEE
I'm gonna miss the Rebirth banner also, grew quite fond of it

D'awww, adorable.
Also holy shit that trinity snowflake as the book symbol is 10/10

Well, it was good while it lasted. Pack it up, folks. It's going to be Batman and Bendis as far as the eye can see going forward.

Nice, I like it.

Look at the images in the thread, fool.

So... just like this year what with The Button and Metal, but with Bendis?

>green lantern
>no green

>I'm gonna miss the Rebirth banner also, grew quite fond of it
It was ugly af and extremely obtrusive

>Comic books
>Not wanting cheesy taglines

Get a load of this guy.

No different then having NEW 52 written each cover for 5 years.

I don't like it. The Batman title should be spread and cool but now it doesn't have space

>that snowflake
WAIT A DAMN SECOND, das cute.

Love this artist but the perspective on Batman is awkward here. It looks like his legs disappeared.

They look like ass, just have the DC logo in the top corner and leave it at that

>he takes superhero comics seriously

Kek

I'd argue it was worse because it stood out so much. The New 52 thing was always just the text up in the corner; Rebirth had a bright blue banner at the top of every cover.

Damn, I liked the little "2 of 6" that used to be under the logo.

Which is why the small period during DC You which had neither was by far the best. No clutter at all on the covers

They're hideous.

Also I'm gonna miss the title of the arc on the covers.

Well it’s gone soon

So they can also have Vertigo, Young Animal, Hannah Barbara, and Dark Metal to differentiate subbrands under the DC umbrella.

>Dark Metal

I think you mean Dark Matter, and the line isn’t even called that anymore, if I remember correctly it’s now called “New Age of DC Heroes”

I think he meant they were going to make these canon with the movies, which is a terrible idea.

I agree, lads.

>Green Lanterns' and Green Arrow's boxes arne't green
I'm sure they'll fix it in future, but it is kinda silly to make such a faux pas...

Got you pham.

Spot the mouseketeer...

I guess the good times are coming to an end.

>How Warner Brothers views DC properties

I liked the banner having the name of the storyline, but I also like how these intrude on the art less.

Not exactly excited to have more shit cluttering up the cover but at least it looks good

They've literally always done this dude

now all we need are triangle continuity numbers, I hope they find room for the name of the story tho, that was the best part of the Rebirth tradedress.

also Mann channeling his inner Jim Lee.

It'll change colors depending on the cover like the logos do.

Nice

It all looks so cute and fun...except for Barry.

didnt even notice until i saw the replies

The hope that things will get better.

He's remembering the time Eobard was a mall Santa who molested him.

Maybe they'll have the same banner but write "DC Elseworlds" instead of "DC Universe", on books like The White Knight from now on.

I doubt they thought it would bomb. It's a good logo though so I don't mind

This is beyond perfect.

On one hand, I kinda get why DC had the Rebirth banner be so big and why they kept it for so long. But goddamnit, I wish they used these sooner.

>simple
>stylish
>a little reminiscent of the 00s
>neat icons (agree that gl should be green)

Yeah that's some good shit.

What’s funny is that DC is dropping that right when Marvel is picking it up for Marvel Legacy.

Guess I’m going to have to drop all my DC books and Make Mine Marvel now.

Isn't Cymeme finally getting mercy-killed?

You mean the breakout star of the blockbuster motion picture Justice League?

Anyone know what the trade's are going to look like? This is really going to break up the flow of the Rebirth Spines

Same here, and the Arrow

>Guess I’m going to have to drop all my DC books and Make Mine Marvel now.
Enjoy your Gabby Rivera books then.

What, no they're not. Marvel is gonna use corner boxes as well
