DC DIRECT: REBIRTH - COULD THE RESURRECTION OF DC DIRECT BE PART OF ANOTHER DC COMICS CRISIS?

BREAKING NEWS:

DC DIRECT: REBIRTH - COULD THE RESURRECTION OF DC DIRECT BE PART OF ANOTHER DC COMICS CRISIS?

“I can’t prevent the future. To me, it’s already happening” - Dr. Manhattan

Earlier this month, it was revealed that McFarlane Toys would resurrect DC Direct, and fans worldwide rejoiced (including yours truly)! There is not much information yet, apart from the plan to manage the current remaining stocks, along with revamping some of the fan-favorite lines of figures and statues. We can speculate that the Batman Black and White statue series could make a comeback, as it would give McFarlane Toys another way to pump out even more Batman items, and hope that the Animated Series line is coming back (please, please, please!).

The Voice of Reason (@pzahui) found out about pre-orders for those cancelled items on European stores. EXCITING!

But in the comic book world, it is not uncommon to see characters die, and come back to life later. What if (not related to Marvel) this was all part of a DC Comics event too?

The most recent “crisis”-level event in the comic books was the “REBIRTH” event, where we learned later that all that happened during the previous event (New 52) was because of Dr. Manhattan (yes, the blue naked dude from Watchmen) reshaping reality and changing the past. Heroes that were dead were resurrected, so it’s not too farfetched to think that the same could have happened to DC Direct. DC Comics had already rebranded DC Direct to DC Collectibles in the past, before changing their mind and rebranding it back to DC Direct (kind of like what happened with the New 52…). Is Dr. Manhattan behind all this?

More news at 11:00… Nothing ends, Adrian… Nothing ever ends.
