Out this week: Flashpoint Beyond #0 (DC, $5.99)

Geoff Johns returns to the world of Flashpoint, the 2011 event series that preceded the New 52 relaunch, with this new miniseries. It features Thomas Wayne, the Batman of the Flashpoint timeline, who has also shown up recently in Infinite Frontier and related titles, but also mashes in some of the writer’s Doomsday Clock characters, namely Marionette and Mime, somehow and for some reason. Eduardo Risso provides the art.

DC has announced two more one-shots for its Tales from the Dark Multiverse line: one that re-imagines Batman: Hush and one that puts a new twist on the already twisted-up Flashpoint. 

Tales from the Dark Multiverse are a series of What If?-style one-shots, which put “a twisted and terrifying spin” on previous stories. Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Dexter Soy are tackling Hush, while Bryan Hitch goes solo on Flashpoint.
