" Action Comics " # 40 - top Art by Joe Quinones
With the " Horrorville " arc by Greg Pak and Aaron Kuder coming to a tight , " Action Comics # 40 " is set to take the action to much enceinte scale - apparently , into orbit . What good stirring to call upon for such a daring - or should we say , excellent - escapade than the aptly - titledBill & Ted ’s Excellent Adventure(1989 ) ?
Without more details on the story hold within , it ’s operose to have it off if Superman and another characterwho will not be namedcan measure up to Bill S. Preston Esq . or ' Ted ' Theodore Logan . But there ’s no interrogation that Superman and his many villain would be good off if they stick to the advice of the cinematic duo they ’re mirroring : " Be excellent to each other . "

" Detective Comics " # 40 - top Art by Brian Stelfreeze
We ’ve been looking for the chance to liken the Dark Knight with ' Neo ' for years , but DC Comics has beaten us to the punch with their cover to " Detective Comics " # 40 , recreate the original poster forThe Matrix(1999 ) burned into the judgment of every sci - fi sports fan around to see it in the first property . Sure , Batman may bea more probable wedge than Keanu Reeves , but the comparison are more than fitting give Brian Buccellato and Francis Manapul ’s current " Anarky " story line .
After rebooting " The Flash " ( andmaking plenty of change in the mental process ) , the pair have taken a standardized approach to Batman . Namely , by telling a taradiddle of erasing a preceding identity , protrude bracing , and how that ability play with the larger forces of topsy-turvyness and order . Here ’s hoping it ’s as iconic a conclusion as the picture to which this variant is paying court .

" Harley Quinn " # 16 - Cover Art by Dave Johnson
If there is one unquestioned achiever in DC ’s New 52 reboot , it has to be Harley Quinn . It was n’t enough that the ' Maiden of Mischief ' was put front and eye in the " Suicide Squad " relaunch ( now just an appetizer toMargot Robbie ’s forthcoming portrayal ) , but score her very own - shockingly successful - solo series . The floor it ’s told so far are as oddball and referential as one would desire , and " Harley Quinn " # 16 looks to keep that trend alive .
pretermit the proportion in array the ' Clown Princess ' with ' The King ' Elvis Presley - in his celluloid debut , Jailhouse Rock(1957 ) - it ’s dainty to see that it is n’t just modern hit DC is looking to honour with its monthly theme . We can only assume the narration by Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner get Harley gaol , realizing the gift for euphony that she never had thanks to her cell fellow ’s command ( but do n’t wager on it ) .

" Green Lantern Corps " # 40 - Cover artistic creation by Tony Harris
With John Stewart currently headlining the action of " Green Lantern Corps " for author Van Jensen and creative person Bernard Chang ( seriously , when will he come out in WB ’s moving picture universe ? ) , release # 40 finds he and his team attempting to queer a criminal offense annulus before uncovering a far large , darker , and more vicous terror . According to the variant cover , the fight may prove particularly devastating for Stewart in the end .
There ’s no court toForbidden Planet(1956 ) that we wo n’t O.K. of , and the attention to detail in Tony Harris ' binding is probable to make " Green Lantern Corps " # 40 a must - have for fans of science fable ’s earliest day on the silver screen . Sure , it ’s intemperate to suppose how the film could have change ifRobby the Robotwas actually an immense alien creature like Lantern Kilowog . But even the idea of aGreen Lanternstory taking cues from the film that helped define innovative sci - fi is sure to excite some mirthful fans .

" Supergirl " # 40 - Cover Art by Marco D’Alphonso
As Kara Zor - El extend her time as a educatee of the secret ' Crucible Academy ' in the belated electric arc from new creative squad Mike Johnson , K. Perkins and artist Emanuela Lupacchino , the comparison to another notable girl far , far from home , is a meet one . In fact , it ’s hard to suppose any superhero that better encapsulates Dorothy ’s opinion that " there ’s no place like home " thanSupergirl .
Now that we ’re in use think a version ofThe Wizard of Oz(1939 ) in which Dorothy is blessed with super - strength and heating system visual sensation , it ’s potential to overlook the fact that Marco D’Alphonso ’s variant cover is one of the most passable for a genuine ( albeit , odd ) film . The odds ofseeing Superman ’s first cousin on the big screenare slim at this spot , but it ’s prissy to see DC make unnecessary one of the old and most dear films of the twentieth Century for Kara .
