It has been awhile since DC has announced that their reboot that's not a reboot along with the announcement, DC has also given us which comics will be retold and who will be working on the comics; I know this is old news, but I just thought it would be a change since I don't do much DC news since I don't follow them as much as I should.

If you want to learn a lot more about DC's new initiative, Comic Book Resources does an excellent job at doing so.
Some points are important enough to take notice of:
- "DC Comics - The New 52" is the DC Entertainment publishing initiative that is an aggressive undertaking of launching the entire line of 52 DC Comics character series with all-new #1 first issues in September, accessible to both new and current readers.
- The lead book is Justice League, written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Jim Lee, in-stores August 31st.
- Timely delivery of our books - top titles, week in and week out - is paramount to this new publishing initiative.
- As partners, our goal is to provide brick-and-mortar retailers with world-class product (books with innovative stories and artwork that feature iconic characters) and world-class service (unrivaled marketing support, the industry's only co-op program, personal account service, etc.), and that is what we're going to continue to do.
- 48 of the 52 titles in September are $2.99, the standard price for a 20 story-page art & editorial book, showing our unrivaled commitment to making comics affordable for new and existing readers alike.
- DC Entertainment is diversifying its distribution platform by being the first major publisher to launch same-day digital - making periodical titles available digitally the same day as print, at the same price, beginning August 31st.
DC has said multiple times that this new initiative is not a reboot, but instead is a new launch with retold stories, but with a more modern approach. People will debate whether it is or not for quite some time I'm sure, but either way I think it might be a great approach for DC to bring in new readers. I'll be on top of these comics as soon as they come out, starting with Justice League #1 in August. I've been wanting to get into DC comics for quite some time and this gives me the perfect opportunity to do so.
