>Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV will write and be joined by artists Andy Kubert, Jim Lee and John Romita Jr.

>"Spearheaded" by Snyder, according to DC, the mysteries of The Forge (on sale June 14) and The Casting (on sale July 12) will reveal the dark underbelly of the DC Universe.

>“Art like this demands an epic story,” says Snyder in DC's announcement. “Dark Days posits a mystery that traces all the way back to when I started on Batman. I've hinted at them over the years with Easter eggs and clues. This is a mystery that literally begins at the dawn of man and spans generations of heroes and villains and ultimately leads to huge revelations about the past, present and future of the cosmology of DC. I couldn't be more excited for Dark Days. It's the prelude to the event we've been developing for years.”

>“We’re taking all the ethos and excitement of the work Scott and I have been doing in the Batman titles and unleashing it across the entire DC Universe,” added Tynion IV. “The size and scope of what we're looking to do with Dark Days could only be accomplished by the best of the best. Andy, Jim and John are legends. All of us on this project are pushing one another, and every concept, to the extreme.”

Another post-apocalyptic future event?

Didn't we have like... three or four of these during the New 52?

>The publisher also describes Kubert, Lee and Romita Jr., as driving DC’s initiative to "bring artists to the forefront of the storytelling process."

>Beginning with Dark Days, these creative team will collaborate to "develop new ideas and characters, further enriching the DC Universe."

>“Working with Scott and James on Dark Days is the culmination of the big ideas and endless brainstorming that came out of a recent creative summit,” explained Lee, also of course DC's co-publisher. “It was tremendous fun having peers like Andy Kubert and JRJr. in with some of our top writers. Strategically, Dan and I have talked for a long time about bringing the artist back to the table in the genesis of big, epic events. The creative summit was just that, and the level of collaboration was truly invigorating and electrifying. We can’t wait to share Dark Days with the DC faithful…they’re in for a thrill ride!”

>DC declined to offer any further details about either the two specials or the event the serve as a prelude to, but in 2016 Snyder and with his former Batman partner Greg Capullo spoke about a planned reunion that may be related to these specials.

>According to Capullo, their reunion project is something DC suggested.

>"What we'll be doing next… we think is just going to smash the roof right off DC," Capullo told Newsarama. "It'll be very explosive stuff when we reunite."

>Snyder described the project to Newsarama as "something really fun and big," and later to CBR as their "Batman heavy metal rock opera."

>"It’s going to be a big, epic Batman story with flaming armor, an over-the-top capstone to a lot of the stuff that we’ve done with him. The writer says that the name of the event has been decided, but is not at a place to reveal it yet.

>“Above all, what I really want it to be for fans is to not have it feel like the kind of event that we’ve seen before. I love DC events. They’re bonkers and wonderful, but generally, they refer back to continuity, or they are all about where the line is at that moment in time,” said Snyder. “Geoff’s [Johns] best ones have been plain-out great stories, but I think 'Crisis,' for example, is in conversation with what we need to do with the line, as good as they are. What I want this one to be is different. I want it built out of the stories happening now and creating new material and giving everybody a place to tell stories that fit what they’re doing on their books, and feels really modern and different and above all fun. I don’t want it to be grim. I don’t want it to be superheroes arguing over something. Superheroes won’t be fighting superheroes. I want it to be celebratory, and huge, and crazy. I am going for out of control dinosaurs and lasers. It should be fun.”

It's not difficult. The shit fit already happened. Just write the fanfiction, say fuck it, and move on.

Flash meets Manhattan he says it was not nice to do so, flash yells about love, manhattan is autistic and doesn't understand, batman shows up in a metal suit and says something "cool". Superman shows up and double fist spears manhattan who sends him into a dimension by himself. superman goes and does cool things with PRIME TIME and the rest try to find him.

The league gets jobbed (not really its the Doc after all) between batman's line and supermans sperg.

But the pacing is more like that of a TV edited movie. He just wants to hit the anti-climax and climax along with a second climax. And then he looks at Capullos incredible art and decides "that thing in the background? We'll base a story off of it so they think we planned everything."

Johns is the master of plotting long-term myteries and storylines. He did the same before Infinite Crisis, Sinestro Corps War, Blackest Night etc. Say what you want about his characterization or dialogue (which I agree are quite dull), he can lay out a line-wide event pretty well.

Nah. He's got it right. DC is all about potential, planting seeds for stories that may or may not be explored in the future. Usually events have endings that feel deflated compared to their beginnings.

Marvel is a fucking cluster of bad ideas and forced drama that sucks up solo series and derails current plot lines in favor of synergy

Are you serious right now? His JL run is basically "dropped plot threads, the book". Darkseid War was rushed as fuck, poorly handled and poorly plotted. Those books you reference in your post are a minimum of 8 years old, not exactly a fresh resume.

It mustn't have been easy trying to do anything in a fucking JL title while there were constant editorial fuck-ups with the New 52, art delays (by Lee, Finch AND Fabok), while trying to push Cyborg, and throwing out the entire history of the DC Universe
Want a more recent example? Rise of the Third Army/Wrath of the First Lantern

But that is false. And more important, i'm not not the one saying outright lies. Johns wrote origins and the rest of the books he did with Lee, you have no reason to think otherwise and Johns has never sugested he didnt wrote it.

Johns is mediocre in general, ignorant and really not fit for his job as president, CCO, editor, consultant, writer in the DCEU or excutive, he lacks at least a 3 fdigits IQ

“Art like this demands an epic story,” says Snyder. “DARK DAYS posits a mystery that traces all the way back to when I started on BATMAN. I’ve hinted at them over the years with Easter eggs and clues. This is a mystery that literally begins at the dawn of man and spans generations of heroes and villains and ultimately leads to huge revelations about the past, present and future of the cosmology of DC. I couldn’t be more excited for DARK DAYS. It’s the prelude to the event we’ve been developing for years.”

Tynion only started comics with the new 52 though, so at least he has had time to improve and he certainly has based on detective comics. I liked this way of DC getting new writers.

Rebirth has been good, in my opinion. King tells a story about cycles in Batman, Rucka makes a coherent WW series, and Superman has been good too.

I dislike Snyder because he seems like a fanfic writer who is just trying to do his version of Morrison's stories. He seems genuine and has some good ideas, but he misunderstands the character and blatantly rips off previous works.

I hate the way he writes Batman. With King, I feel like this is the Batman who experienced all events, just like Morrison's. This is a man in a struggle against trauma and grief.

With Snyder, I see his version of Batman. Which is fine, but I think it gets the character wrong. There's no theme or message other than "Batman is awesome". And that's just my opinion, I don't want to say you're wrong for liking it; it just so happens I don't.

I'd rather not have to pay for some shirts event done by a hack writer is all, I left Marvel to get away from that crap. If Snyder does some how infect the two books I'll be promptly dropping them like I did with Detective Comics for Batwoman Begins. I made a vow to never again buy a comic written by either Snyder or Bendis and I mean to keep it.

One of the things that I absolutely hates about King's run is the way he characterize Batman. He actually made me almost hates Bruce and he is one of my favorites.

Snyder has his fair share of problems, but I never hated his characterization of Batman.

Whut? You can hate Snyder all you want, but his arcs each had themes around them that he wouldn't stop shoving in your face with Joker or Riddler doing paragraph long dialogues about it.

What are you enjoying about All Star? I'd say it's probably Snyder's weakest series so far. I'd put even King's weakest arc (I Am Suicide) above it, and consider the rest of the run much better.

Well, to be fair, all of his books before Brightest Day were pretty much at the same level; love him or hate him, there were no obvious big stinkers
But during BD his writing quality (particularly BD and his short-lived Flash run) noticeably went down, which I can't help but think was due to the lead-up to Flashpoint and the clusterfuck of the New 52
His Aquaman and post-N52 GL was still going strong, but JL had problems from the start
My theory is that it's because he writes best when continuing from an established mythology and continuity, which the N52 JL had none of (note that Aquaman and GL pretty much continued like nothing happened)
On the other hand, while reading the Rebirth Special, I felt that it was a return of form (and the spirit of pre-N52 DC)
If Rebirth continues in this spirit, we are in for a good time
