Did you miss San Diego Comic-Con this year? Well, don’t worry. We were there for every exciting moment of it, and now that it’s finished, we’re catching you up on all the big DC announcements you missed. It may not be the same as attending Comic-Con yourself, but trust us, this is the next best thing. (And you won’t have to wait in a single line.) This was a big year for DC—here are some of the highlights!
The Bullet is Back
DC is getting a new logo, and it’s one that might be familiar to longtime fans. During Friday’s “Jim Lee & Friends” panel, publisher Jim Lee revealed that DC’s classic “bullet” logo is returning in a big way. Some of you might remember the bullet, which served as DC’s official logo from 1976 through 2005. It was affixed to the original printing of some of DC’s most pivotal comics, including Watchmen and
Along with returning to all of DC’s comics starting in October, the bullet, which was designed by Milton Glaser, will also be the official logo for DC Studios. And that’s just the beginning. Over the months ahead, you’ll see the logo show up on everything DC touches, including all of your favorite toys, games and collectibles. (You may have already noticed that it’s here on DC.com and all of our official social media channels.)
Finally, you did see that the panel was called “Jim Lee & Friends,” right? Well, one of those friends was none other than James Gunn, who shared the logo via video and explained why he and his co-chair Peter Safran went with it. That wasn’t all he revealed in the surprise virtual appearance, which brings us to our next category…
Animation
DC animation was all over San Diego Comic-Con in some pretty major ways.
As a part of the “Jim Lee & Friends” panel, James Gunn also introduced the first trailer for the upcoming Creature Commandos animated series. Considering it was written entirely by Gunn, it shouldn’t be surprising to hear that it embraces all the delightful weirdness we’ve come to expect from his work while still embracing some of the more obscure corners of the DC Universe. And don’t forget, this is more than a first look at a new animated Max series—it’s also the first piece of media that takes place in Gunn and Peter Safran’s new cinematic DC Universe.
