DC Unveils ‘Convergence’ Solicits

DC Comics has revealed the solicitations for the first four issues of their new event series Convergence which you can view below.

Convergence will begin on April 1 and will run through May 27. The main series will be written by Jeff King with aid from Dan Jurgens on the zero issue and an outline from Scott Lobdell. The series reveals that Brainiac has taken planets and timelines that are no longer in existence and has trapped them in bottles, like the Bottled City of Kandor. The story begins when Brainiac takes all of these cities and places them into one big dome which include worlds of previous DC events such as Zero Hour, Red Son,Kingdom Come, DC One Million, and many more.

The usual DC Comics’ titles will be on a two month hiatus during this time but fear not, they will return in June.
