DC Comics is making a bold move.
In an effort to make their characters more appealing for their readers, who have grown more sophisticated over the years, they are “re-imagining” every single one of them. The project is chronicled in Infinite Crisis, a seven part story that brings all of the characters together and propels them one year into the future – though not unchanged. Each character will be updated for the 21st century.

Wow, a comic post! Who are you and what have you done with John?
This just sounds like the DC version of the Marvel Ultimate move where they updated their characters and origins. I was excited to see Jim Lee’s name but alas, he’s only the cover artist….
Wow, Stacy posted! Who are you and what have you done with the real Stacy?!?!?!
I’ve banished him to a parallel universe and sacrificed my gotee in order to maintain my cover! Soon I will rule you all!
