June 16, 2007: DC Nation Panel at HeroesCon

ComicBookResources has posted a report on the DC Nation panel at the Heroes Convention in Charlotte, NC yesterday. Here's an excerpt from the panel, discussing "52" and "Countdown"...

    Old School was the name of the game in Charlotte, NC this afternoon, when DC Comics opened up the Heroes Convention with their "DC Nation" panel. Sitting on the dais were Executive Editor Dan DiDio, "52" editor Michael Siglain and Coordinating Editor Jann Jones, along with artists Jamal Igle, Ethan Van Sciver and an alpaca )the alpaca comes in a bit later).

    After jokingly reminding everybody that what happens in the room stays in the room, DiDio had a serious question for the audience, asking those in attendance if the current state of the DC Universe, especially "52" and "Countdown," is making sense. The answer was a resounding "Yes!" from the crowd, and DiDio explained why that was important. "The main thing is to coordinate the DC Universe to where it's moving in real time," DiDio said. "Each month, stories in DC will reflect what's going on in 'Countdown.' If it's an important scene, you'll see it from different angles [in different books]. The same event might be seen from several points of view."

Meanwhile, over at the Wizard World convention in Philadelphia, the DC Comics Countdown panel had a few interesting announcements, but nothing directly Superman related. Check out the report at the Comics Continuum.
