Ever since DC published Crisis on Infinite Earths in the mid 80s, DC have fiddled, tweaked and adjusted their line of comics in an almost annual relaunch of titles and/or events which promises a ‘bold new start’ which is then wiped out in a year or two. The last relaunch was Rebirth, which dragged Watchmen into the DC Universe.
Previous to that was the New 52 and a host of revamps/reboots, and now comes what’s called for now ”5G” which will see existing superheroes like Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne stand down for a new generation of heroes. The Beat have more information here. Sure, there will be a bounce but we all know superhero comics and its fans. Things will go back as they are now, and then a few years later things will be revamped and on and on til every last reader is dead of exhaustion.
DC would be better working on creating consistently new, and good comics for as wide an audience as possible instead of constantly fucking about but that would involve being more about creativity than the endless tweaking of middle-management concerned only with the next big sales boost.
