What Will 'Flashpoint' Do to Our Favorite DC Titles?


Bleeding Cool has been the source of some very interesting Flashpoint rumors this week—remember that Flashpoint is DC’s line-wide crossover event that, while Flash-centric, is promising to involve all of DC’s big guns.

On Tuesday the website reported that, according to a source from across the pond, DC is going to substitute several titles with alternate-reality versions of the books. This would be similar to the renaming of several X-Men titles during the Age of Apocalypse event in the mid-90’s. Bleeding Cool’s source also stated that DC’s renaming of titles will be more expansive than that of the supersized X-crossover.

There seems to be a grain of truth to the rumor because Bleeding Cool reported today that George Perez has stated he will be working on a book called The Secret Seven; the assumption is that this is either a renaming of The Secret Six or possibly a Justice League of America title.

Let’s hope we get some more answers about alternate DC timelines tomorrow when DC officially begins their “Flashpoint Friday” post on their blog tomorrow.
