Straight from the pages of JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK comes John Constantine! Problem is, rather than help Andrew in his war against the Queen of Blood, Constantine figures it would make more sense to just wipe out all of the vampires, including Andrew!
Kill all of the undead psychopathic cannibals? That's actually pretty sound logic.

The earth is being eaten alive! As the unstoppable alien antibody continues consuming everything in its path, Stormwatch awakens a slumbering [information redacted] buried deep within the earth. But has the team found an ally or a threat greater than the antibody? However it plays out, the DC landscape literally will be changed forever! Plus: Don’t miss a major change to the Stormwatch roster!
Man, Jenny looks PISSED. Though that's hardly suprising considering she's being attacked by...
I love that movie. All the teenage characters are played by people in their thirties, it's hilarious! The Eighties version... not so much. :(
SUICIDE SQUAD #4

The body count rises! Another Squad member falls – but not the way you might expect! Betrayal follows betrayal as Captain Boomerang joins the Squad in a smash-and-grab against the terrorist organization Kobra, and Harley Quinn shows why you should never, ever recruit Squad members from Arkham Asylum. Brace yourself for a last-page shocker the likes of which the Squad has never faced before!
*snerk* Look at Harley there, she don't give a crap! Though as I said in my post about the Birds of Prey solicit, only being four issues in is too soon to start using phrases about how they've never faced "a threat like this before!". If only because none of the threats that they've faced are like the ones they've faced before.

The trail of a missing child from a wealthy family leads Jonah Hex and Amadeus Arkham into the watery catacombs of Gotham City’s still-under-construction sewer system – but will they survive the many dangers that lurk in those twisty depths? Also: introducing the Barbary Ghost, a fireworks wielding mistress of vengeance, stalking San Francisco’s criminal underworld.
Cool, a new steampunk heroine for San Francisco... who might possibly be African American judging from the name. :) Also, I wonder if the Hex and Arkham storyline will tie into Gates of Gotham in any way, as the story is pretty much about how Gotham was constructed.

Shocking discoveries lead Batman deeper into the mystery of the Court of Owls and its secret and bloody ties to both Gotham City and the Wayne family. But an even deadlier threat awaits Batman: a trap set hundreds of years ago, far beneath his city. The war for Gotham’s soul begins here!
Ah, nice to see that Snyder is continuing the themes from Gates, I look forward to this.
