A NEW ERA FOR DC COMICS

Reading Multiversity and Convergence together clears the slate for creators playing with the DC characters and settings to go where their imaginations lead. Plenty of room, still, for continuity heavy storylines to continue, but ultimately there is more room, now, for creators to tell stories that are unburdened by 75 years of forced continuity.

Kudos to DC Comics, Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, Dan DiDio and Jim Lee for really making it work. I look forward to seeing where the next wave of creators will take your characters.
