Grant Morrison's Multiversity
Probably the most anticipated thing coming out in 2013 to a lot of comic sites and one of mine as well, so I think this deserves it's own thread. Here is some preview art and some info. Will add more as more info comes out.

I normally try not to get hyped up.
This however...this has the potential to be one of the greatest arcs in comic book history.

quote: "We’ll also see the remnants of a bored Justice League, filled with nearly-forgotten 90s characters with nothing to do but superhero/supervillain battle re-enactments. When asked who would be appearing, Kyle Rayner will be the Green Lantern featured in the book, but Guy Gardner will be present. Other 90s characters set to appear include Bloodpack, Bloodwynd, Anima, Walker Gabriel and, yes, Wally West, amidst a host of other legacy characters introduced in the era, hinting at appearances by Azrael and the “replacement” Supermen. Knowing that it would always come back to the most iconic versions of the characters, such as Bruce Wayne, Barry Allen and Hal Jordan, Morrison wanted to give these heroes “a world they did inherit, but they didn’t inherit anything” worthwhile."

Some other quotes about it.
quote: Going back to the classic multiverse-introducing “Flash of Two Worlds”, wherein Barry Allen could read about Jay Garrick’s adventures in comic books, so too will that meta-structure return for "Multiversity" in order to highlight what Morrison calls “the most terrifying threat anyone’s ever created in a comic. I don’t do hyperbole,” he laughs, “BUT. This is the one. We’ve discovered, what I think, is actually a technology…it’s like hypnosis…this is a new thing we are doing” that will highlight the increasing threat over the course of each issue, as one world has to pass portents of doom along to the next. “Something is bringing down the structure of the multiverse.”
“Like I said, we have seven different books dealing with this,” he continues. The initial story will feature a multiversal Justice League, with Calvin Ellis, the black President Superman from Final Crisis and Action, as the protagonist. The second story will be a pulp adventure tale, using both old pulp characters and repurposed characters who could easily fit the mold, including an Indiana Jones by way of John Constantine “Doc” Fate. Also present will be Lady Blackhawk, the Atom and the Immortal Man in a story set in the year 2013 after a world war has decimated the human populace down to two billion people. Following that will be “The Just”, taking place on Earth-11, showcasing the return of the Super-Sons and the children of other superheroes.

Artists delay. You have Frank Q. and one had a health problem, I believe. Also, many re-writes.

They should have called the book "Multidiversity" instead. Would have been a better fit.
Also, I remember the times where tribute characters from other companies were treated with respect like Buried Alien in the Marvel universe, who got declared the fastest man alive (Barry Allen after he died in the fight against Anti-Monitor).
Nowdays the tribute characters speak broken english, have a giant head and wear diapers.
The book was abysmal to say the least.

The big blue baby is the only thing I didn't like. Just felt a bit like disrespect and stupid. Maybe it was the diaper.
