New 52: Difference between revisions

Of course, DC wouldn't let things stop there. In January 2012 they overhauled their corporate logo, and a "Second Wave" launched in May, with six underperforming titles ended and replaced with six new ones. They followed that up with "Zero Month" for the reboot's one-year anniversary with #0 [[Origins Issue|Origins Issues]] and some more new launches.

 

 

== The New 52 and Their Changes ==

=== Non-Specific Changes ===

* The introduction of the Trinity of Sin, three people punished for horrendous crimes centuries ago [[Shazam|at the Rock of Eternity by the first magic users]]:

** [[The Question]]: Previously an investigator in a mask, he is now punished for unknown crimes by having his face and name removed.

** Pandora: A new character and the one who prompted the reboot by making the Flash aware of multiple timelines to merge together. She's the actual mythological Pandora, punished for opening the box and releasing evils unto the world. Feeling her sentence was unjust, being branded as evil when she didn't intend any harm, she's now working to end her curse - even if the Justice League pays the price.

** The original relaunch has ''Suicide Squad'' [[Alliteration|supplant]] its [[Spiritual Successor]], ''[[Secret Six]]'', as the [[Villain Protagonist]] team book.

* [[Throwing Off the Disability]]: Barbara Gordon, who had her paralysis healed. It should be noted that the writers are aware of the trope's [[Unfortunate Implications]] and are having Barbara continue to struggle with the psychological scars.

* [[Younger and Hipper]]: Just about all the heroes, but especially the Earth-2 characters; who are now the same ages as their more mainstream counterparts when they were traditionally [[Older and Wiser]].
