Some... sorta... DC Event...?
Matt Brady - Newsarama.com


    DC has released what appears to be a teaser image with no information attached other than the subject line of an e-mail: "Let the battle cry be heard in the land, a shout of great destruction..."

    Which obviously accounts for the weepy Superman, but not really someone wearing the Red Robin costume from Kingdom Come, or the dashing, pantsuit Batman (from an Elseworlds, perhaps, or freshly back from a relaxing desert trip where he found himself?)

    Oh - and bodies, bodies, bodies...Max Lord, Beetle, Jade, and The Question...?

    (note: may or may not be related to WW3)

That's Kyle Rayner there, but he's got a ring. And Donna's back in her red costume. Earth 8 versions?

Superman is all wussy looking, maybe he killed someone.

The multiverse is back!

Actually, that looks like the Spectre standing where Lady Liberty used to be. And I like how they have Donna and Kyle paired together; nice call back to their old relationship.

Wasn't he obliterated? I forget. I thought he was mush (the reason he'd never ever EVAR! return).

The figures look awkward and photoshopped, or something. I would image this has something to do with "WWIII" and the return of the Multiverse......and "52"...and stuff...

And for the love of gob, WHY does Superman have to fucking cry in every major event-pic??

Doesnt look at all photoshopped to me!
The fact all the characters are drawn by the same artist, all the shadows seem to match up & there is no hazing around any of the figures, would indicate thats a single piece of art, unlike the CaptainIronmanAmerica pic!

There's an old comic book theory that says certain things on a cover sell comics. The most famous, of course, being monkeys, but also dinosaurs or scenes of the main hero crying. Considering how Identity Crisis #1 went through multiple print runs, there might be something to it....

He's just faking so that he can get some of what Diana's sporting. You would too if you had to sleep with that bitch Lois every night while working with a demi-goddess at the office.

And lets face it, when it comes to the old unskinny bop, he must have to hold back something terrible otherwise he'd kill Lois!
Must be pretty lousy sex for him.

You can't spell, but at least you can tell your colors apart!

Hatehatehatehate I fuckin' HATE the stoopid Bat costume. WTF?! It looks like a pair gobdamned pj's for fuck's sake. Awful. Bleh. Get Alfred to sew that shit proper...

Go away Barda, I don' like you either.

Superman being a pussy- Why is this different from any other day? Are we really that surprised?

Too many people already dead, dead yet again. Pre-crisis here we come...

Dig Donna back in red. Is that really Kyle? KC Robin!!! Dig the rest of the pic...



Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
