DC Comics Adds 3 ‘New Golden Age’ Series
Tumblr media
DC Comics’ The New Golden Age banner will soon boast three more series spearheaded by Geoff Johns. Alan Scott: The Green Lantern hails from Tim Sheridan and Cian Tormey, Jay Garrick: The Flash hails from Jeremy Adams and Deogo Olortegui, and Westley Dodds: The Sandman hails from Rob Venditti and Riley Rossmo. According to Johns, the three 6-issue miniseries will tie back into Justice Society of America and some other titles that DC is brewing.
Alan Scott: The Green Lantern will, through a timeline twist, revisit and recontextualize “the origins of the first Green Lantern through the lens of our modern understanding of the man. The story, which begins in the 1930s, is about an old flame – the kind that burns eternal – and the sometimes head-on, single-track collision of our personal and professional lives. This is Alan’s coming-of-age, in which he must embrace the man he is, to become the hero he’s meant to be. In the end, he’ll have gained a greater understanding of himself and his gifts – as he unlocks a new, previously unknown ability that could make him the most powerful Green Lantern in existence!” (DC Comics)
Tumblr media
  Jay Gerrick: The Flash finds Jay reunited and trying to reconnect with his long lost daughter Judy, who is also a speedster. “They’ll need to work to find common ground when a mission that started in Jay’s early days as the Flash comes roaring to today. But will The Flash and The Boom be able to thwart a plan that’s been in the works for decades?!” (DC Comics)
Tumblr media
Wesley Dodds: The Sandman follows the pacifist Wesley. “He has given up on the hope of a peaceful world, but he hasn’t stopped believing that people can be better to each other, if they’re only given the right tools. Possessing a scientist’s optimism and romanticism, he is convinced that humanity can invent cures for its own ills. Having learned about the battlefield horrors of World War I from his father, he sought to create a sleep gas that would allow for “humane” warfare. During his research, he recorded all of his attempts in his science journal - even those with horribly deadly consequences - swearing to never show them to the world. Now his journal has been stolen, and he must find the culprit and stop them before his deadly mis-inventions fall into the arsenals of the belligerent nations threatening to pull the United States into the next world war.” (DC Comics)
Alan Scott: The Green Lantern #1, Jay Gerrick: The Flash #1, and Wesley Dodds: The Sandman #1 go on sale in October 2023.

“This looks cool. I want to wear this.”
SIR. YOU’RE DRESSED LIKE MORE OF A STRIPPER THAN EVERY ITERATION OF WONDER WOMAN.

Here I was, innocently reading Catwoman’s first-ever comics appearance in Batman #1 (1940), and THIS is one of the first things Batman says to her.

So, in summary, to everyone who doesn’t read Golden Age comics: You should.

Do you have to read the older comic’s to understand the newer comics for Joker?
Hello Anon!
I’m going to assume by ‘older comics’ you mean Golden Age, and no you technically don’t need to read them to be able to start reading newer comics. But there are some older Joker comics that I do consider to be required readings in order to understand the newer stuff and Joker’s overall character. Such as:
Batman: The Man Who Laughs
Batman: The Killing Joke
Batman: A Death in The Family
In my Joker Comic Masterlist post, you can follow the ‘footpath’ I’ve laid out for readers in the notes that I made under each collected edition's title to know what you should read to better understand the comic of your choice.
Example:

I hope this helps!

A random thought / headcanon
Superman learns knitting/sewing, deciding to give an “ugly sweater” to his friends, including captain marvel
He doesn’t make them ugly intentionally, he’s just bad at making designs

DC Comics Announces “The New Golden Age” and 2 More New Comics from Geoff Johns
Tumblr media
Heroes and villains from the past to the future will have their lives turned upside down in the wake of Flashpoint Beyond. Geoff Johns one-shot, The New Golden Age, will “unlock DC’s epic and secret-ridden history of heroism” as well as launch new titles Justice Society of America and Stargirl: The Lost Children.
The New Golden Age #1 pairs Johns with artist Steve Lieber, Jerry Ordway, and Diego Olortegui. “DC’s future...and its past...will never be the same again. But how are Mime and Marionette connected to this? Why are Rip Hunter and the Time Masters the most unlikable heres in the DC Universe? And who or what is...Nostalgia? Don’t miss the start of the strangest mystery to have ever plagued the DC Universe.” (DC Comics)
The New Golden Age #1 features a main cover by Mikel Janín, variant covers by Gary Frank, Todd Nauck, Michael Allred, and David Talaski, a 1:25 variant by Dan Hipp, a 1:50 foil variant by Allred, and a 1:100 foil variant by Talaski. The Comic goes on sale on November 8, 2022.
Tumblr media
Justice Society of America pairs Johns with artist Mikel Janín. “A long-lost hero from the JSA crashes into our era with a grave warning...but it’s too late. A mysterious and malevolent enemy has invaded the entire history of the JSA, and an all-new team must come together to defeat it. But what deadly secret does this messenger from beyond keep? Where are they from? And why is all of this happening now? Only the Time Masters know…” (DC Comics)
Justice Society of America #1 features a main cover by Mikel Janín, a variant cover by Yanick Paquette, and 90s Cover Month variant by Jon Quinones, a 1:25 variant by Jerry Ordway, and a 1:50 variant cover by Steve Lieber. The comic goes on sale on November 22, 2022.
Tumblr media
Stargirl: The Lost Children pairs John with artist Todd Nauck. “When Stargirl of the Justice Society and Green Arrow’s ally Red Arrow discover a tragic teenage hero from the past has gone missing, they set out to find him...only to discover he’s not the first teenage hero of the Golden Age to have vanished without a trace. But where have they gone? Who are they? And what does the Childminder want with them?” (DC Comics)
Stargirl: The Lost Children #1 features a main cover by Todd Nauck, a variant cover by Crystal Kung, and a 1:25 variant cover by Mayo “Sen” Naito. The comic goes on sale on November 15, 2022.

In a perfect world, Cary Grant would’ve played Superman in the 1940s.

Also, Katharine Hepburn would’ve been Lois Lane, because this duo already has my heart.
