DC Comics Announces National Comics: This July, DC Comics will be launching a new stand-alone series, entitled National Comics. National Comics will tell done-in-one stories, exploring some of The New 52's characters that, while interesting, don't currently have an outlet for their stories. The first four in the spotlight will be Eternity, Madame X, Rose and Thorn, and Looker. Each of these will have an issue to tell their tale and introduce the reader to their little corner of the universe, with the hopes of building from there.
