From Absolute Batman to New Gods, 5 comics to look out for during DC's All In initiative

DC is set to go "All In" this year as their new publishing initiative is set to bring titles like Absolute Batman, New Gods, and more. Rather than being a complete relaunch with new comic lineups, the initiative is being spearheaded by Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson, who want the new arcs to be jumping points for new readers.

With All In, fans can expect new Elseworlds titles like the Absolute Comics lineup with Absolute Batman by Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta to be the major release. Alongside that, fans can also expect to see many other titles, like Justice League Unlimited and more, grace the shelves of the stores as well.

So, if you're excited about the upcoming DC All In initiative, then here are the titles that you need to make sure end up in your pull list.

Following Absolute Batman, one of the biggest titles to hit the shelves will be Jason Aaron and Rafa Sandoval's Absolute Superman. A brand new take on the Man of Steel that will shake up the status quo of the characters, fans can expect to see Aaron take major swings with Kal-El here. The story will see a wildly different version of Superman that is sure to surprise many.

The official synopsis for the book reads as:

"This Superman has no family, no Fortress of Solitude, and no home. Will he still stand for truth, justice, and a better tomorrow in this new universe?"

Fans can check out Absolute Superman when it hits comic book stores on November 6, 2024.

The second Absolute title after Absolute Batman will be Kelly Thompson and Hayden Sherman's Absolute Wonder Woman. Just like Absolute Batman and Absolute Superman, the series will be a reimagining of Wonder Woman that will see how Diana Prince exists without her island and neither a mission, and look at exactly what makes her absolute.

The official synopsis for the book reads as:

"For Diana, there is no island paradise, no sisterhood to shape her, nor a mission of peace—so what is the purpose of an Amazon warrior in this new universe?"

Fans can check out the first issue when it releases on October 23.
