Thoughts on DC's June 2011 Solicitations

Peter Milligan's writing a one-shot set to be released this June. A Flashpoint tie-in, it's called Secret Seven. I don't really know what Flashpoint is all about beyond something to do with alternate realities (or maybe it's alternate timelines), and I guess I don't really care to go out of my way to learn more about. But a new Milligan comic is a new Milligan comic. From the cover, it looks like there's some sort of crossover between the Ditko/DC Universe Suicide Squad-era Shade, the Changing Man and the Milligan/Vertigo version of Shade.

George Perez is drawing this one-shot. It should be out on June 1, 2010, for a cover price of $2.99.

That looks like DC's Enchantress in the background

 Also of note is the Flashpoint: Batman - Knight of Vengeance one-shot due out the same day from the 100 Bullets creative team. Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso doing an alternate universe Batman? I'm there.

Dave Johnson's cover is delicious
