New Releases: Justice League International #1

Before Flashpoint, DC released a Justice League International #1 cover with a brunette in black and yellow tights in the bottom left of the image. During Flashpoint, DC released a Justice League International #1 cover with empty space where the heroine used to be. After Flashpoint, DC released a Justice League International #1 cover with a blonde in white tights in the bottom left of the image. At least I remember all of these changes.

Note that between revisions, Guy Gardner's boot has been correctly recolored. Yet Booster still isn't wearing a Legion of Super-Heroes flight ring. Curious.

Of course, DC used both the image with the brunette and the image without during their media blitz for the New 52. Is this latest art even the final cover image for the book? We'll find out as Justice League International #1 hits shelves today. Buy a copy and make Skeets happy.

Push for 50

Over at the DC Comics Message Board, some determined Booster fans are considering petitioning DC Comics for a Booster Gold #50 to tie up the loose ends that were left dangling by the DC relaunch. We got closer than some might think; counting issues #0 and #1,000,000, there were 49 published issues of Booster Gold, Volume 2.

If you're still looking for a place to voice your frustration at the cancellation, visit the DC Message Board here. (Sure, it's probably going nowhere, but as Flashpoint was so desperate to remind us, hope is the cornerstone of the DC Universe.)

Upcoming Releases: JLI Volume 3 #1

Did you ever play that game where you look at two images and try to find what has been changed between them? DC has.

The internet's inability to identify the girl on the bottom left of the originally released cover for Justice League International, Volume 3, #1 (seen on the left) seems to have inspired a change in the "final cover" (seen on the right). We know from other sources that she's not Wonder Woman, Donna Troy, or Black Canary. Given the fact that she's now invisible, maybe she's Gypsy. The solicitation text provides no hints:

With the growing presence of super beings around the world, the United Nations resolves to create a new group called Justice League International. Batman, Booster Gold, Green Lantern Guy Gardner, August General in Iron, Fire, Ice, Vixen and Rocket Red are charged with promoting unity and trust — but can they reach that goal without killing each other first?

I guess we'll find out when the issue is released on September 7, 2011.

Before and After: #44

The DC preview of tomorrow's Booster Gold #44 is online at The Source. Once again, I find it interesting to compare the solicitation cover art with the finished work. (I previously compared the solicitation and final art for the cover of issue #42.)

Both images were drawn by Dan Jurgens and inked by Norm Rapmund. The difference between the two images -- for good or ill depending on your personal aesthetic -- is the work the colorists at Hi-Fi Designs.

Before and After

Yesterday DC released a preview of Booster Gold #42 in the Source, and it's interesting to compare the solicitation cover art with the finished work.

Cover images for Booster Gold #42

Both images were drawn by Chris Batista and presumably inked by Rich Perotta. The solicitation image on the left was probably colored by a DC staffer; the final image on the right was colored by Hi-Fi Designs. What a difference a bit of computer color makes.
