October 6, 2012: DC Comics Has Plans for "Man of Steel" in 2013

Man of Steel Poster Newsarama spoke with DC Comic's Senior Vice President of Sales Bob Wayne to look at sales statistics for the New 52 titles as the company moves in to the second year of the new continuity, while also looking ahead at what's to come... especially in regards to their plans when "Man of Steel" is released in cinemas in June. Here's an excerpt from the interview...

    Q: The Man of Steel film is now right around the corner, in terms of preparing a publishing plan for it. Are there any plans you can share about what you want to be in comic book and bookstores when the film opens?

    Wayne: Every time that our colleagues at Warner Brothers release a feature film based on one of our properties, we work with them to maximize the attention we can get for our publishing program.

    When Man of Steel debuts in June, next summer, I think you will agree that we have done quite a bit to get people's attention to remind them that there's a movie coming up, and remind them that we publish comic books every week.

    So we've been having those conversations literally for over a year.
