"I just read several pages of a comic called GENIUS on one of those nasty piratey web places. It’s written by Marc Bernardin and Adam Freeman, and illustrated by Afua Richardson. And the idea is so simple and crystal that I could spit.
Every generation has its own naturally gifted brilliant military mind. Some people just have a genius for military thinking. What if this generation’s natural military genius was a seventeen-year-old girl living the gang life in the middle of South Central LA? And what if she had, since she was old enough to fuck shit up, been connecting people and laying plans for the only war she’d ever want to wage?
Next: an extraordinarily large pile of dead LAPD.
I’d really like to read more of this, but it turns out it’s tied into Top Cow’s Pilot Season project, which means people have to go and vote for it. I haven’t read the others — I know Jonathan Hickman has something in play, as does Josh Fialkov. GENIUS just happened to be the one I saw first. Since I always want new comics from Jon and Josh, I may have to beat some people at Top Cow. Because I require more GENIUS, too."

thatnickguyAll right, cash in everyone. Who had "5 years until DC reboots again" in the betting pool?

Now, mind you, this is being reported by Bleeding Cool and it hasn't been officially announced, so take the news with a grain of salt.
Bleeding Cool has run a number of stories about upcoming changes expected after the publication of the issue 52s of the remaining New 52 launch titles from five years ago.
And it seems like it's time to do the New 52 Relaunch all over again, in June.
Bleeding Cool broke the story on a spate of name change relaunches and certain books going bi-weekly at DC Comics this summer. But it seems this is only a part of it.
I understand that a top down change has filtered through the publisher which will see another relaunch for DC Comics with everything getting a new #1 in June - those that survive that is.
And the new line even more dominated with Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and Harley Quinn/Suicide Squad-related titles.
Anything tying in with a film and/or TV show like Flash, Green Arrow will be okay, anything that's not is less so. I haven't heard about Green Lantern...
But yes, this will mean another big issue 1 relaunch. Could this be All-New All-Different A-Bit-Like-The-TV-Shows DC Comics?

It was a nicely done setup for a hanging.

It showed us his family life.
Then it used that to hint at his work life.
( The contrast was very obvious. )

"The plot is, 'A big, mysterious stranger comes to a small town.' It's a real simple plot. But it's not about the plot; it's about the people. There are lots of different age groups being represented. There are arms dealers -- there's some pornography -- that always gets people interested. 'Hey, there's porn!'"
