NEW HISTORY OF THE DC UNIVERSE #3
Written by MARK WAID
Art by DOUG MAHNKE and DAN JURGENS
Legacy variant cover by SCOTT KOBLISH
$5.99 US | 48 pages | 3 of 4 | Wraparound variant $9.99 US (card stock)
ON SALE 8/27/25

Following the cataclysmic events of Crisis on Infinite Earths, the DC Universe is forever changed. Torches are passed as legacy heroes like Wally West embrace the mantles of their predecessors, heroes like Hal Jordan are tempted by darkness, and the Justice League faces formidable new threats such as Doomsday, Black Hand, and Superboy-Prime. Narrator Barry Allen recaps these events through his return, ending with the cataclysmic Flashpoint!

Given that this issue is focused entirely on events that took place between Crisis on Infinite Earths and Flashpoint (a period of time in which its narrator, Barry Allen, was *ahem* dead), plus that fact that Dan Jurgens credited on art, I think it's very, very likely that Booster will also be seen between the covers as well.

Also in the solicitations is a third volume of Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle reprints, which will include all of Jaime's backup stories from Booster Gold volume 2 and, importantly for Booster boosters, his Blackest Night team-up with Booster Gold against... Dead Ted! (As originally presented in Booster Gold Volume 2 #26 and #27.)

A complete list of August solicitations can be found at AIPTcomics.com. Thanks to all who made sure I saw these.
