DC Marvel Family Solicitations for Product Shipping in May 2007


DC has released its May 2007 solicitations but held off on announcing COUNTDOWN until this week! DC's COUNTDOWN is a new weekly series and promises to feature Mary Marvel. Also, AMAZONS ATTACK #2 comes out in May and features Captain Marvel (or is that the New Shazam) on the cover. Jeff Smith's SHAZAM!: THE MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL #4 and Winick & Porter's TRIALS OF SHAZAM #8 take a publishing break this month although I'm sure both Jeff Smith and Howard Porter are busily working away on those upcoming issues!

When a character dies in COUNTDOWN 51, it sets off an unexpected ripple that will touch virtually every character in the DC Universe.

The COUNTDOWN is on ... so begins the end!

The heroes of the DCU join the battle as the miniseries event explodes!

When the Justice League and members of the Teen Titans arrive in Washington, it's just the shot in the arm the U.S. military needs, and what was a one-sided affair becomes a devastating stalemate. But the war takes a terrifying turn as military strikes start occurring on the other side of the country, plunging the rest of the country into chaos. With the heroes' attention split between the two coasts, the Amazons press forward with a daring assault, and it's up to the heroes to save thousands of innocent lives!

DC Revises Schedule for MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL and TRIALS OF SHAZAM

DC Revises Schedule for MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL and TRIALS OF SHAZAM
DC has updated its web site with some adjusted release dates for SHAZAM: THE MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL and TRIALS OF SHAZAM. As it stands now TRIALS OF SHAZAM is roughly a month and a half behind its publishing schedule. Issue #5 should have been out originally at the end of December had a monthly schedule been adhered to. Howard Porter's new art style seems to be what's causing the late arrival as he is pencilling, inking, and coloring each issue using computer-based graphics programs. So it's certainly understandable that some issues will be late.

DC also announced today that the first TRIALS OF SHAZAM trade paperback collecting the first 6 issues of the series as well as the BRAVE NEW WORLD lead-in story will be released in June. So according to DC's web site, here's the expected release dates for SHAZAM: THE MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL and TRIALS OF SHAZAM:



  • February 7:
    SHAZAM: THE MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL #1

  • February 14:
    TRIALS OF SHAZAM #5

  • February 28:
    SHAZAM: THE MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL #2

  • April 4:
    TRIALS OF SHAZAM #6 (formerly March 28)

  • April 4:
    SHAZAM: THE MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL #3

  • April 28:
    TRIALS OF SHAZAM #7
