DC Rebirth is the 2016 relaunch of DC Comics, and their first major rebranding since the New 52 began in 2011. Unlike the latter, DC Rebirth isn't a Continuity Reboot of the DC Universe; it's more akin to Marvel's contemporary line-wide relaunches of late, with notable status quo shifts and new creative teams taking over certain titles, as well as some books being renumbered and others getting new #1s. However, there are notable retcons that move the universe closer to how it was before The New 52.DC Rebirth is a product of The New 52's dissolution in 2015, which gave way to another (short-lived) initiative called DC You. While some of the creative decisions made during the DC YOU era were acclaimed by critics and readers, it hadn't boosted sales; in fact, DC's overall comic figures dropped to what they were before The New 52 launched. Because of this, they decided something had to be done to reignite interest in their books.Geoff Johns —who was personally responsible for the "rebirths" of Green Lantern and The Flash a decade or so earlier— is at the helm of this ambitious project, citing an emphasis on "legacy" and doubling down on what readers have always loved about DC Comics. Additionally, a one-shot called DC Universe: Rebirth (penned by Johns himself) was published, laying the groundwork for the rest of the new line.See Young Animal for another series of new book launches designed to bring in new readers, this time harkening back to early '90s Vertigo Comics. See The Wild Storm for yet another relaunch: Warren Ellis' reboot of the universe formerly owned by WildStorm Productions.Marvel Comics a year later announced its own version, Marvel Legacy, with a Fall 2017 launch. Though that didn't work as well as expected. They made a second attempt in May 2018 with Marvel: A Fresh Start, which was much more successful in comparison.At New York Comic-Con 2017, it was confirmed that the branding would be removed come January 2018, though the main plot will conclude a fair bit later. It would later be followed by the Infinite Frontier rebranding initiative in March 2020, following the Future State event.

Power Creep, Power Seep: Ask people who dwell a lot into Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny and they would tell you that, while powerful, Doctor Manhattan in Watchmen never showed to be able to do things on a level comparable to higher-tier Marvel and DC heroes. Rebirth pushed him way above them, into the league with some of the most powerful characters from the Big Two. It's implied he could accomplish this thanks to Barry Allen's and Pandora's actions in Flashpoint, but it's still impressive. He also killed a member of the New Gods.

Continuity Porn: Rebirth by definition has to indulge in this, but Batman #6 takes it up to eleven in dusting off old D-list Batman villains like Colonel Blimp and Kite-Man. The mother of all examples appears at the end of New Super-Man #8: the reintroduction of Ching Lung, the first ever villain published by DC Comics, drawn precisely how he appeared on the front of Detective Comics #1. Even the layout of the TEXT is the same as Detective Comics #1.

After Tim Drake's alleged death, he was even scarier than usual, at least within the pages of Detective Comics and "Night of the Monster Men" Deconstructed with Zor-El, who does horrible things because he wants to protect his daughter and make her happy. And he doesn't listen when Supergirl tells she doesn't approve of his actions.

Alternate Company Equivalent: Justice League: Rebirth #1.

Is an Intercompany Crossover with Commander Shepard on the way? Many are noting the shocking similarity, and also noting that Bryan Hitch worked on The Christmas Invasion episode of Doctor Who as well.

Failed a Spot Check: In "Return to the Planet", no one realizes the Lois Lane who waltzes into the Daily Planet isn't the New 52 version, despite this Lois being much older and with a different hair color. The only one who doesn't buy it is Superwoman, who saw her die. Justified as that Lois had been gone for weeks, and the general staff aren't going to assume there might be a duplicate Lois running around out there.

Mythology Gag
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: The Teen Titans are almost how they are in both Teen Titans shows, albeit replacing Cyborg with Kid Flash. Then again, Kid Flash has made appearances in both shows as well. The Suicide Squad line-up is heavily inspired by the one from the movie. Super-Sons, the book featuring Damian Wayne and Jon Kent, gets its name from a series of non-canonical stories that originated from World's Finest #215 in January 1973 featuring the hypothetical college-aged sons of Superman and Batman. Pandora was Geoff Johns' "escape switch" of sorts for New 52. Apparently, Johns realized he had no use for her. Batman #3. Hank and Claire training and studying to be superheroes in exactly the same poses as Bruce's origin story in Detective Comics #33. Batman #4, Gotham handles a suicide bomber in exactly the same way Superman handled the suicidal goth teen in All-Star Superman #10. Unlike Superman, however, he fails. In Supergirl: Rebirth #1, Kara fights the Kryptonian werewolf Lar-On, who first appeared in World's Finest #256 way back in 1979. Basil Karlo/Clayface uses the name Matt Hagan in an audition. Doubly so, since Batman: The Animated Series gave Hagan a background in acting like Karlo. On the same topic while his origin was reimagined, the film he tries to star in borrows heavily from Basil Karlo's first apperance in that the plot certains around an actor from a silent horror movie killing the actors of a talkie remake. Superwoman features digital media tech conglomerate The Daily Star, the rival of traditional news publisher The Daily Planet. This is a nod to the history of Superman comics, as the original name for the iconic newspaper Lois and Clark worked for was originally "The Daily Star". This was an Homage by Joe Shuster, who grew up selling newspapers for the Toronto Daily Star before moving to America (and was how he became interested in comics in the first place). The name was changed due to legal reasons, but as the Toronto Star has since dropped the "Daily" from their name back in 1971, it makes sense for the original name to make a comeback. Superwoman #1 also has Lois catch a fighter jet, leading to a memorable exchange borrowed straight from Superman: The Movie:

The plan was that Deathstroke would kill the Clock King and the dictator would kill Deathstroke. However, Deathstroke outwitted him back doubling the pay then blackmailing the senator into killing himself, thus putting the dictator in trouble with the Clock King. Then, it's ultimately revealed that the dictator did all that just to get Deathstroke to change costumes, leading to him taking his old costume.

There's a Clark Kent who believes the New 52 Superman only impersonated him briefly. It was Mr. Mxyzptlk, who used his Reality Warping powers to make it look like Kent and Supes were separate people all along, and brainwashed himself to Become The Mask.

Death Is Cheap: When discussing the New 52 Superman's death, both the pre-Flashpoint Superman and Lois realize that this sort of thing never happened in this timeline and it's only a matter of time before he somehow comes back.

Batman Gambit
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_38d02d44
comment
Batman Gambit: In Detective Comics, Batman himself actually is a pawn in one. He gets ambushed by the Colony and gets the everloving crap beat out of him before getting captured. This causes Batwoman to assemble the rest of the team at the Belfry. She also contacts her father, a Colonel, after recognizing the Colony is a military organization, and invites him as well in order to get his advice. Unbeknownst to her, her father is the leader of the Colony, and he uses the opportunity to disable and take control of the Belfry. The intent all along was to gain access to Batman's data in preparation for a strike on another target, and Kate played right into her dad's hands by doing what he expected her to do.

Face Death with Dignity
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_396e1c2a
comment
Face Death with Dignity: At the end of DC Universe Rebirth, Wally loses all his hopes of reconnecting with universe after finding out his wife and lightning rod Linda Park no longer remembers him. He accepts his ultimate fate of fading into Speed Force forever and uses his last willpower to give a farewell to Barry. Barry remembers his surrogate son and manages to pull him out of Speed Force after hearing these words: Batman in Batman #1, when he has to steer a crashing plane into the bay while standing on the roof. Gotham and Gotham Girl swoop in before the plane makes impact, sparing him. In Detective Comics #940, Tim Drake is left barely standing after surviving a wave of military drones meant to attack the city. Thinking he's caught a break, he realizes to late that a second wave is incoming and he's in no condition to find a way out. He accepts his fate, makes peace with his loved ones, and signs off in a way that shows he finally acknowledges a part of himself everyone always believed him to be.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_4a3e547f
comment
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Pandora's last words can essentially be read as a commentary, not on Dr. Manhattan specifically, but on the legacy left by Watchmen. It's the most obvious DC Universe: Rebirth #1 can get in terms of explaining its thesis. In Flash #24, Eobard Thawne notes that even though he knows all of the Flashes of the past, the New 52 Wally West is new to him. He then asks if he's "impulsive" or "the kind who is forever lost in The Flash's shadow", and dismisses him as a "fake Kid Flash".

Stop Being Stereotypical: The basic on conflict on both sides between Ministry of Self-Reliance and their Justice League of China and the Great Ten in New Super-Man. The Ministry sees the Great Ten as a bunch of stereotypes and relics that China has outgrown and believes that by creating their own versions of the Justice League members, they are beating westerns at their own game. On the flip-side, the Great Ten feels the Ministry is abandoning Chinese pride in order to make cheap knockoffs of western superheroes (without even fixing any flaws they have shown), playing into the stereotype of China as bootleggers' paradise.

Wham Shot: DC Rebirth #1 ends with Batman finding The Comedian's blood-stained smiley face badge that is synonymous with Alan Moore's Watchmen. Action Comics #957 ends with the original Doomsday attacking, green containment suit and all. If that weren't enough, Clark Kent also appears - confusing Lex, Superman, Lois and Jon. Superman #2 ends with the return of the Eradicator. Suicide Squad: Rebirth #1 ends with Captain Boomerang dead at the hands of General Zod. Titans #3 has Abra Kadabra unintentionally repeating Wally's mantra, while looking at a pocket watch pointing at ten to midnight The Flash #9: As Barry tells Wally what he saw in the Speed Force vision, the audience sees what he saw: The original Jay Garrick's helmet. New Super-Man #8: A mysterious figure confronts the mysterious "Super-Man Zero": Ching Lung, positioned in the same way he was when he first appeared on the cover of Detective Comics #1 Mr. Oz frets at the end of Action Comics #976 about how that guy on Mars will react to the "real" Superman returning. The Button ends with Dr. Manhattan obtaining the Comedian's smiley face badge. Superman #29 reveals one very alive Sinestro wanting Parallax back. The Superman/Super Sons crossover reveals Conner Kent, Cassie Sandsmark, and Bart Allen are alive in the future. In the 2019 run of Suicide Squad, the team’s command has been turned over to the greatly disliked Lok. When Osita demands a goon to contact who Lok reports to, she’s put on a video call with....

Do Not Spoil This Ending
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_5fd13b97
comment
Do Not Spoil This Ending: The DC Comics page for issue #1 states: "It all begins here. Do not skip to the last page. Do not let a friend or message board ruin this comic for you. The future (and past) of the DC Universe starts here. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!" Of course, scans of the comic were leaked a week before release. Any comic directly related to the big reveal in the above special are also tagged in the solicits with a warning to read Rebirth first before reading (specifically The Flash: Rebirth and Titans: Rebirth). The final issue of DCYou's Teen Titans starts off with a note warning that the events therein take place after Detective Comics #940, as the former is an immediate follow up to the ending of the latter. Which is fine for anyone keeping up, but for anyone who chooses to ignore the warning, they are in for a rude awakening.

The Reveal: By the end of the first issue of Rebirth, it turns out Dr. Manhattan of Watchmen is the true party responsible for the New 52 universe by altering the pre-Flashpoint universe. The original red-haired Wally West is still around. The Joker who first fought Batman, the one who crippled Barbara Gordon, and the one responsible for the events of Death of the Family and Batman: Endgame aren't the same man, but three separate people. The Scarab isn't Xeno-technology that was mistaken for Magic after all, it's the other way around. Superwoman: Lana Lang is the Red Electric Superwoman. Titans #2: Abra Kadabra is apparently the one responsible for erasing Wally West from history. Wonder Woman #11: Wonder Woman hasn't been to Themyscira since she originally left with Steve Trevor. The version she's visited during the New 52 is a fake, and Diana's memories have indeed been tampered with. The mysterious human Clark Kent is revealed to be Mr. Mxyzptlk. The identity of Mr. Oz: Jor-El, the father of Kal-El.

Adaptational Badass: There were various rules and limitations to Doctor Manhattan's powers in Watchmen, to the point that despite developing Casual Interplanetary Travel if every silo on Earth launched a nuclear weapon at once he still would not be able to stop them all. Rebirth Manhattan has no such rules or limitations, however.

What Happened to the Mouse?
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_863fa679
comment
What Happened to the Mouse?: Unlike both The New 52 and DC YOU, there's no sign of anyone from WildStorm at all, at least in a headlining title. This has since been revealed to be due to the fact that a new Wildstorm imprint is in production and due to begin in February 2017. It is unconnected with Rebirth as Wildstorm is now a separate canon once again, though the two are bleeding into each other, with DC keeping versions of Midnighter and Apollo and variants of the DC characters appearing in Wildstorm. Similarly the Milestone Comics characters have also dropped off. They are slated to receive their own world again in 2018.

Story-Breaker Power: In the 2016 Holiday Special, there's a Titans story of them fighting the Mad Mod and his girlfriend, and a short followup involving both Nightwing and Batgirl being late to a date. Conveniently, Wally West is nowhere to be found in that story, even though they even mention him. He's not in any of the other stories either. Obviously, if he were around, both stories would've ended rather quickly.

Bait-and-Switch: DC have made a big deal about how most of their titles are getting reduced in price to $2.99. However, since a lot of these titles will now be shipping twice as often, fans will actually end up paying more each month. From a story perspective, Superwoman was sold on the premise that Lois Lane would be the main character, with Lana Lang taking on a supporting role. In reality, Lana Lang is the main character, with Lois Lane dying at the end of the first issue with the implication that there is no way to bring her back.

Wham Episode: DC Rebirth #1, for the entire DCU.

It was Mr. Mxyzptlk who disguised himself to get away from Mr. Oz. Another one in the same series when That Clark turns out to have been given fake memories. New Super-Man #8: Baixi has a falling out with his little sister and she fully embraces being Alpaca, the Joker of China. This is followed by the reveal of Super-Man Zero, Dr. Omen's attempt at creating Super-Man of China before Kenan, who was imprisoned but is now freed by returning Ching Lung, DC Comics first ever villain.

Continuity Reboot: DC was very strident to establish that this was not the case before officially announcing Rebirth. It's essentially a merging of the Post-Crisis DCU with the New 52 setting, which in practice means Rebirth is a new continuity, one created in an entirely different way than DC ever had before but in practice the effect is the same. It is also a starting point for new DC readers, much in the same way All-New, All-Different Marvel is for Marvel readers.

Foreshadowing
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_9d12bbc1
comment
Foreshadowing: DC Rebirth #1 contains several not-so-subtle hints regarding the involvement of Dr. Manhattan even before the Wham Shot of the smiley button from Watchmen: The opening page not only has the prominent watch motif, but also Dave Gibbons' signature nine-panel layout. The entire page of Pandora's death is layed out exactly like the page of Rorschach's death◊, frame-by-frame. Doubles as a Mythology Gag. Before that, the final issue of the Darkseid War storyline in Justice League shows Owlman trying to get the secrets to the universe, only to be reduced to a splotch of blood. A very familiar splotch... At the end of Action Comics #976, someone is waiting on Mars. Guess who exiled himself there in Watchmen? Regarding the original Wally's return, the final issue of Titans Hunt—which dropped just before Rebirth—ended with the revelation that there was a tenth member of the original Teen Titans whom nobody could remember, which was followed by an ominous bolt of lightning crashing down. The "death" of Tim Drake, which was first referenced in post-Convergence Batman Beyond #12. Barbara recounts one of the greatest mysteries to ever plague Bruce's career as Batman, the disappearance of Tim Drake—a mystery he could never solve. We learn now how that is even possible, in Detective Comics #940: Mr. Oz zaps Tim out of continuity and imprisons him, right at the moment of his death. Incidentally, the fact that Futures End!Tim Drake also gets zapped out of continuity in the prelude to Batman Beyond's Rebirth run also foreshadows the fate of Tim Drake.

Homage
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_a1a1491e
comment
Superwoman features digital media tech conglomerate The Daily Star, the rival of traditional news publisher The Daily Planet. This is a nod to the history of Superman comics, as the original name for the iconic newspaper Lois and Clark worked for was originally "The Daily Star". This was an Homage by Joe Shuster, who grew up selling newspapers for the Toronto Daily Star before moving to America (and was how he became interested in comics in the first place). The name was changed due to legal reasons, but as the Toronto Star has since dropped the "Daily" from their name back in 1971, it makes sense for the original name to make a comeback.

Un-Reboot
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_a21ff883
comment
Un Reboot: One of the primary driving forces behind Rebirth, though the case is something of a "Soft Un-Reboot". While the preceding New 52 was advertised as a full-scale Continuity Reboot of the DC Universe, what actually happened in practice was a revamp in creative direction that would set up a new status quo, only for older continuity to creep back into canon, thus creating a massive conflict of interests between not just audience and creator, but creator and creator due to there being no agreement on was or wasn't canon, making the pretense of it being a reboot almost entirely pointless. Rebirth addressed this with the approach that the events of the New 52 era did happen, but "revealing" that the characters, elements, and status quo were really more along the lines of their earlier incarnations, allowing them to discard elements of the era that didn't work, preserve some that were worth keeping around, while also allowing the universe to revisit its roots and pay respect to the oodles of continuity it spent the last few years half-heartedly trying to ignore.

Recycled Premise

comment
Recycled Premise: A few people have said that the Superman titles would be going through something of a "Reign of the Supermen"-like storyline going into DC Rebirth. Indeed, with the Eradicator making his first New 52 appearance and the Cyborg Superman returning, Supergirl trying to make up for Superman's loss, we also have expies of Superboy and Steel in the form of Jonathan Kent (who is taking up the Superboy title) and Lex Luthor. And this isn't even counting Kenen Kong, the New 52 Lois Lane and the pre-Flashpoint Superman! Raven's miniseries is about her moving away from the Titans and trying to live a normal life and attending high school, until one of her classmates goes missing, leading her to find a mysterious threat. It's pretty much the same premise as her miniseries from 2008. The first arc of Green Arrow sees Oliver losing his fortune and left for dead, a premise that had been done before, most recently during Jeff Lemire's run. Red Hood and the Outlaws has Red Hood working undercover by allying himself with Black Mask's crime organization. Not only is this a callback to Batman: Under the Red Hood, it's also rather similar to Grayson as well as its followup Nightwing. The first arc of Titans features Linda Park not remembering her relationship with Wally due to the machinations of Abra Kadabra. Something similar happened within the pages of The Flash, where Linda was retconned out of existence by Abra Kadabra.

He accepts his ultimate fate of fading into Speed Force forever and uses his last willpower to give a farewell to Barry. Barry remembers his surrogate son and manages to pull him out of Speed Force after hearing these words:

Collective Identity: DC Universe: Rebirth #1 confirms there have been three Jokers - the original Golden Age version, the one birthed from The Killing Joke and the A Death in the Family one, though it's only Batman: Three Jokers that clarified it as this.. Meaning that the Joker's Multiple-Choice Past takes a whole new meaning!

Retcon: The younger, black Wally West is now Daniel West's son instead of his nephew, since Rudi West is once again the original Wally's dad. Clayface is now depicted as a Tragic Villain who never wanted to hurt anyone, and who was transformed as the result of a horrible accident. His prior New 52 appearances depicted him as a violent murderer who only became Clayface in the first place because he wanted to get revenge on the people who ruined his acting career. The Tragic Villain angle was an aspect of a different Clayface, however. In the pre-Flashpoint continuity, Rose Wilson was the daughter of Slade Wilson and Lillian "Sweet Lili" Worth, a Hmong bordello owner Slade met in Cambodia. The New 52 changed Rose's mother to Adeline Kane, erasing her Asian heritage in the process. Rebirth strikes the New 52 origin from canon, with Rose once again being the biracial daughter of Lillian and Slade. Her backstory was also heavily retconned, as she makes no mention of N.O.W.H.E.R.E., and was instead trained by Nightwing at Slade's behest. A heavily reimagined version of Doctor Light was previously introduced in Trinity War as a heroic scientist with a wife and three daughters. He also joined the Justice League of America very shortly after he gained powers in an accident. Though his wife and daughters are still canon in Rebirth, Deathstroke's take on Doctor Light suggests that he was already a costumed supervillain (complete with powers) well before the events of Trinity War, and that his brief time with the Justice League was merely a failed attempt to reform. During Geoff Johns' run on Justice League, Cheetah was portrayed as being okay with the Cheetah's powers, gained from cutting her hand on a knife. This is changed to her being anything but happy with them, which were forced on her by Urtzkartaga, as with the Post-Crisis version. Also, where the New 52 version was a serial criminal, this version has been changed to having once been Wonder Woman's friend. Etta Candy has been returned to her normal larger proportions. She's also got a promotion, going from being Steve Trevor's underling to being his superior. The Fall and Rise of Captain Atom establishes that Captain Atom never left the his Moon exile at the end of his New 52 series, thus many of his appearances between then and now are rendered non-canon. Superman Reborn effectively meshes the pre-Flashpoint and New 52 Superman storylines into one continuity. Superman: Secret Origin and all of Dan Jurgens' run of Superman past the Electric Superman saga, then switches around to doing both the New 52 storylines and Superman: Lois and Clark. It also reveals that Clark and Lois never dated other people. The Detective Comics storyline "A Lonely Place of Living" reestablishes Tim Drake's original origin from "A Lonely Place of Dying" - a young teen who deduced the identities of Batman and Nightwing who became the third Robin to save Batman from the darkness that overtook him when Jason Todd died. Christopher Priest's Justice League run has a flashback showing Martian Manhunter as a member of the original Justice League, despite it previously having been established that he was not a member of the team in the post-Flashpoint continuity. What's more, Cyborg and Raven act like old friends when they meet during Dark Nights: Metal, while another flashback in The Flash Annual seemingly shows Cyborg as a member of the original Teen Titans.

Take That!

comment
Take That!: From Geoff Johns himself, the story as a whole is this to those who use Watchmen as the ultimate manifesto on how to write comics but misread the story's true message to not lose what makes DC Comics what it is, something he feels the New 52 did. To this point, Dr. Manhattan is cast not as the Greater-Scope Villain of the DCU, but an Audience Surrogate of sorts, a type of clueless writer who thinks people would enjoy ridiculous Darker and Edgier stories but doesn't understand why it isn't working. This is heavily shown throughout DC Universe: Rebirth #1 with Pandora's death, Johnny Thunder being locked up in a mental institute, Saturn Girl in police custody with her Legion Flight Ring confiscated and Linda Park's not knowing who Wally was. Johns also made comments which could be very easily interpretted as displeasure with the direction Arrow had taken in its fourth season. Detective Comics #938 has a line where Spoiler mocks Red Robin's unpopular costume from Scott Lobdell's previous New 52 Teen Titans run. Teen Titans #1 has another dig at Lobdell's run, with Damian Wayne claiming that under Red Robin's leadership, the Teen Titans became a complete and utter joke. Wonder Woman #11 more or less highlights the criticisms aimed at Brian Azzarello's run, with Steve Trevor mentioning how unrecognizable Themyscira and the Amazons are, telling Diana everything feels wrong. Diana later says it feels like she's in a parody of her home, and sure enough Diana realizes the New 52 version of Themyscira is a fake. Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #12 has Guy Gardner preparing to spike a bottle containing the New 52 Lobo in his attempt to free them from Larfleeze and the 80s Brainiac. Hal Jordan shows up to stop him, saying "Not this one. Trust me. Better to leave that one on the shelf."

Meta Plot: The story connecting the vast array of independent titles in the DC Rebirth initiative involves the revelation that everyone in the DC universe has had years of their memories, histories, and loved ones ripped away from them by some mysterious force that's meddling with the universe. The mysterious force turns out to be Dr. Manhattan from Watchmen, although none of the characters realize just who he is and find signs of his presence, from rumors of a man waiting on a Moon in Action Comics to the brutal murder of the Reverse-Flash from The Button.

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The Teen Titans are going to be led by the current Robin, Damian Wayne...and they don't like that very much, which is justifiable since he basically kidnapped them into helping him fight his grandfather, Ra's al Ghul. Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz must share the mantle of Green Lantern of Earth and work together. Hal further enforces their need to stick together by merging their Lanterns so that they must share it to recharge their rings. Neither are too keen about this at first, and their personalities couldn't be more opposite.

Ret-Canon: Nightwing's new outfit recalls his appearance from The New Batman Adventures. National City from the Supergirl (2015) TV show now exists in the DC Universe. Katana has adopted her costume from the Suicide Squad (2016) movie after her previous suit was damaged. She also now wields a wakizashi as a side arm, much like she does in the film. Likewise, The Joker's alleged new design is similar to Jared Leto's portrayal of the character. Wonder Woman has a new costume resembling the one worn by Gal Gadot in the DCEU. Bumblebee has a new hairstyle inspired by the one she wears in DC Super Hero Girls. The League of Shadows from The Dark Knight Trilogy are used in Detective Comics. Aqualad's Rebirth look is virtually the same as how he looked in Young Justice (2010), as opposed to his initial appearance. The Royal Flush Gang appeared in All-Star Batman's opening arc sporting the costumes of the version in Batman Beyond.

Clark Kent's non-answer to Jimmy when asked about how it's possible he's not Superman when he was outed as him in front of the whole world. It was Mr. Mxyzptlk in disguise, who had escaped Mr. Oz.

Red Herring
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_dbca2c99
comment
A Red Herring variety: New 52 Clark Kent reveals he and New 52 Superman were always separate people, and New 52 Superman took his identity when he went into hiding. The real Wham? It was Mr. Mxyzptlk who disguised himself to get away from Mr. Oz. Another one in the same series when That Clark turns out to have been given fake memories.

Bad Future: Justice League has one where the Justice League have been killed off, with the kids of the current Justice League travelling back to prevent it. Detective Comics has a version of the Titans Tomorrow universe, where Tim Drake has become a Fallen Hero. And Titans has an evil, future version of Donna Troy, who's gone more than a little mad from living past all her friends and loved ones.

Start of Darkness: Gotham ends up dumping his heroic ideals after a mistimed Dramatic Unmask ends up leading a surviving soldier to put two and two together, then finding and killing his parents. It's assumed, though, that this is because of the Psycho-Pirate, who slipped out of Amanda Waller's grasp thanks to Hugo Strange.

comment
Decon-Recon Switch: As one critic stated in an essay: "Geoff Johns is drawing a straight line from Watchmen to The New 52. He’s saying that the deconstructionist comic books of the 80s - great books, seminal classics - have so poisoned the well that they have negatively impacted what came after. It’s the ultimate piece of comic criticism (and one I think a lot of old-timers, who were alive and energized when Watchmen first hit stores, would agree with) and it’s in the form of a comic. Yes, Geoff Johns says, DC is too dark and unhappy today. And what’s more, it’s a direct result of chasing the dragon of Watchmen and Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and getting ever diminished returns."

Morality Pet: Lex Luthor's reason for putting on the fallen Man of Steel's cape and mantle? To honor his comatose sister, Lena Luthor, who he knows wouldn't approve of him being the ruler of Apokolips. Heck, she shot him. This comes back to bite him as an experiment to restore her, which he believed had failed, actually worked. Unfortunately, her first order of business upon waking is to raise an army of Bizaress clones, capture him, and transform herself into a new super-villain called Ultrawoman.

Not Quite Dead
 DC Rebirth (Comic Book) / int_e431c24c
comment
Not Quite Dead: Pre-Flashpoint Lois and Clark believe this of New 52 Superman, as Pre-Flashpoint Clark was the same Superman killed by Doomsday, and then returned shortly after. And with signs of a "Reign of the Supermen"-like storyline approaching (see Recycled Premise below), this might be a strong possibility. And that's not even getting into what the mysterious Mr. Oz meant by saying neither Pre-Flashpoint Lois and Clark, and New 52 Superman "are what they seem". Ultimately, Clark discovers that there's no Regeneration Matrix within the Fortress of Solitude like his had, thus he realizes that the New 52 Superman truly is Killed Off for Real - then Clark Kent shows up.

A few people have said that the Superman titles would be going through something of a "Reign of the Supermen"-like storyline going into DC Rebirth. Indeed, with the Eradicator making his first New 52 appearance and the Cyborg Superman returning, Supergirl trying to make up for Superman's loss, we also have expies of Superboy and Steel in the form of Jonathan Kent (who is taking up the Superboy title) and Lex Luthor. And this isn't even counting Kenen Kong, the New 52 Lois Lane and the pre-Flashpoint Superman!

You Are in Command Now: Played with in Detective Comics. Batman and Batwoman are equal in terms of their authority in the new team, but Batwoman suddenly finds herself forced into being the sole leader of the group after Batman is captured by the Colony. This is all in the midst of Kate experiencing some doubts about her new position, since even though she started out wanting a leadership role back when she was in the military, subsequent life experiences have tamped down that aspect of her personality somewhat.

Decomposite Character: One of the big reveals is that the New 52 Wally West is NOT a Race Lifted, Younger and Hipper version of the original Wally West, but is actually his younger cousin. It turns out both boys were named after their great-grandfather, Wallace West. Batman discovers that there are actually three Jokers. There also seem to be two different Clock Kings. There's a Clark Kent who believes the New 52 Superman only impersonated him briefly. It was Mr. Mxyzptlk, who used his Reality Warping powers to make it look like Kent and Supes were separate people all along, and brainwashed himself to Become The Mask.

Unskilled, but Strong: Played with in Detective Comics. Clayface may have some really cool powers, but when it comes to hand-to-hand combat he's woefully inept. One of the goals of Batwoman's training program is to teach him how to fight without the aid of his powers.

Sidekick Graduations Stick: Wally West remains the Flash and remembers all his old history after taking up the mantle when Barry Allen died (though his memories may have changed once he was fully integrated into the new timeline). He is still using the same codename as Barry Allen, even though his new costume adopts the most prominent feature of his old Kid Flash costume (his hair being visible), and he has returned to the Titans rather than resuming a place with the Justice League. He hasn't reverted to kid sidekick, but he's moved back into company with that generation of characters rather than remaining with "the grownups".
