SDCC 2017 DC Comics Rebirth, Dark Matter & December 2017 Solicitations Spoilers: FULL Post Dark Nights Metal Line-Up By Dan DiDio! Hawkman MIA, But Outsiders Return? Starman Too?

Spoilers, Top Story

SDCC 2017 DC Comics Rebirth, Dark Matter and December 2017 Solicitations Spoilers follow.

San Diego Comic Con 2017 (SDCC 2017) is upon us and the post Dark Nights Metal world within DC Rebirth has been revealed by DC Co-Publisher Dan DiDio.

Here is what we knew or saw visually about the Dark Matter titles prior to this new art reveal:

The Dark Matter titles, by a master class of creators, has had their characters including surprise ones pop up on one massive DC poster for Dark Matter at SDCC 2017.

Writer Tom King has also released a pic of that DC poster sans DiDio.

And, in case you were wondering, here’s a look at the floating lady on the left side of the poster whose hand we only see in Didio and King’s pics.

Interesting though that we see Metamporpho of the Outsiders in the pic. The team did reemerge in Dark Days the Forge #1 recently.

We also saw Plastic Man reemerge in the same book, but in his more traditional costume.

Not sure who the woman is, possibly Tomorrow Woman, who has a similar in style costume in the Dark Matter costume to Plastic Man and Mister Terrific. A new team book coming? A new take on the Outsiders?

Interestingly, with the teaser preview (below) to Dark Nights: Metal #1, could we also see Starman, aka Will Payton, and Red Tornado as part of Dark Matter too?

Fun times ahead, but no Hawkman in sight (yet?).
