Wednesday Comics, DC’s new limited run weekly title, has been touted by the company as a bold experiment in the way comics are published. Taking inspiration from the Sunday funny pages, the comic is a large format collection of fifteen strips, all by different creative teams. There are two central questions about the success of the title: does it work as a book, and does it work as an alternative way for DC to publish their comics?

This edition is packed with, well just a couple questions. But one question takes precedence; which dead characters seem destined to rise during “Blackest Night?”

Yeah, this might be a long one. And full of spoilers.

You’ve been warned.

Few comics have had such a tumultuous publishing history in recent years as James Robinson’s Justice League spinoff, Cry for Justice, but setting aside all that controversy, is the book equal to its purpose of giving as an alternate take on the Justice League?

This edition we cover Daxamites, Prometheus, Co-Features, Dakota and even Kryb. We’ve even got royalty showing up via Aquaman and Wonder Woman.

Admit it; you’re curious. Just jump right in get to reading.

Did you miss me?

This edition we tackle Barry Allen, expose Static, confront Final Crisis and address the Watchmen.

Oh yeah, it’s going to be an exciting read. Probably.
