A New DC Super Hero Girls Animated Short

The teenage Super Heroes are having an action-packed week using their crime-fighting skills to solve both present and “prehistoric” problems…

In an all-new animated short, Batgirl, Hawkgirl and The Flash must work together to solve a flurry of crime-ridden riddles. Here is the “Riddle of the Heart.”

Philip Tan Joins The Hellblazer for a New Arc

This February, your favorite cunning, arrogant con-man magician will be heading to Paris—and with a new artist! Philip Tan will join writer Simon Oliver for the next arc “The Smokeless Fire” in DC’s The Hellblazer monthly series. Oliver launched the Rebirth series with artist Moritat with its first story “The Poison Truth.” Tan will follow Moritat’s dynamic and gritty run beginning with issue #7.

In “The Poison Truth,” John Constantine returned home to London with the help of Chas and the very reluctant blast-from-the-past Mercury. As he settled back into the rhythm of the city, a former friend/foe Swamp Thing appeared, in need of help.  His wife Abby, the avatar of the Rot, is missing. Constantine soon finds that an old power has risen in Europe who may be at the center of it all—the Djinn.

Beginning issue #7, with Abby’s whereabouts still unknown and the threat against Humankind becoming clearer, Constantine and Mercury hear rumors of the Djinn’s whereabouts that send them to Paris. Here they must investigate the Djinn’s reappearance from the shadows, and to learn why they need control of the Rot to help in their uprising.

You can check out a preview of Tan’s work here. The Hellblazer #7 will hit shelves February 22, 2017. Do not miss Moritat’s final issue next Wednesday, November 23, with Pia Guerra on art for December and January.
