www.icv2.com/articles/news/30461.htmlWith the release of its March solicitations, DC has revealed that it will cancel 13 titles this spring, shipping the last issues in March before the two-month Convergence event that will cover the period of DC’s move to California. That removes a quarter of the DC Universe titles, clearing the decks for a major retooling of the line when the regular DCU titles return in June. The titles represent a surprisingly wide range of sales, from Star Spangled War Stories Featuring G.I. Zombie, which sold only 7,546 copies in November, to Green Lantern Corps, which sold 34,109. The thirteen titles, with their November sell-in numbers to comic stores, are: 34,109 Green Lantern Corps 30,907 Arkham Manor 25,654 Red Lanterns 21,377 Secret Origins 19,709 World's Finest 16,840 Swamp Thing 15,859 Aquaman and the Others 15,795 Batwoman 15,681 Green Lantern: New Guardians 15,097 Trinity of Sin 11,416 Klarion 9,350 Infinity Man and the Forever People 7,546 Star-Spangled War Stories Featuring G.I. Zombie

comicsbeat.com/dc-slaughters-over-ten-titles/DC Slaughters Over 10 Titles All hell broke loose today as DC Comics quickly tried to sweep a host of cancellations under the rug. The upcoming Convergence event taking place in April and May seems to be pulling some big change in the house of Batman and Superman. The news came from CBR, who announced the solicitations for March 2015. However, it’s hard not to miss some of these books, especially when realizing that some of the titles have been with the publisher since the launch of the New 52 in 2011, including Swamp Thing, Batwoman, Green Lantern: New Guardians and Red Lanterns. It also seems likely that Batman Eternal was planned to end at #52 this week, seeing as how that is now the magic number for DC Comics. Here are the titles on the chopping block: Aquaman and the Others #11 Arkham Manor #6 Batman Eternal #52 Batwoman #40 Green Lantern: New Guardians #40 Infinity Man and the Forever People #9 Injustice: Gods Among Us – Year Three #12 Klarion #6 Red Lanterns #40 Secret Origins #11 Star-Spangled War Stories Featuring G.I. Zombie #8 Swamp Thing #40 Trinity of Sin #6 World’s Finest #32 Some of these books are downright shocking when considering how new these launches are, ongoings like Trinity of Sin, Star-Spangled War Stories Featuring G.I. Zombie, Klarion and Arkam Manner barely got a chance to launch before being outright cancelled. Perhaps DC has something else in store? Rumors have been flying around the internet, hinting at a possible relaunch for the company in June. With so much of their superhero line in limbo, this now seems like it is a must for DC.
