A Crisis-Free Reading Guide to the DCnU

Apparently, via Facebook, DC Co-Publisher Dan Didio made the comment that

"there have been no Crisis events in the New DCU."

Not a lot to go on, but this seems to really contradict a lot of stories. And he said no Crisis events, but does that eliminate all of them or just the bigger 2 (CoIE & Infinite) as you need some kind of event to launch Batman back in time since they said it still happened. Or, did he just get trapped in some JLA battle? Who knows.

Not much seems fairly thought and planned out yet. More like they're going to wing it for different characters. As in, well, we need CoIE for Superman but no one else, so it happened for him, and we need Infinite for Batman so he created Brother Eye but no one else had it, etc. I dunno, this seems pretty unclear, and until we get an official DC statement, I won't hold much to it.

This seems more and more like (the re-launch) a publicity grab, than an actual, well thought out company move.

That article didn't include the followup (which Bleeding Cool did):

It technically does, the image just doesn't show up (if you don't believe me, you can quote it and see the image link and notice that I haven't edited the post, lol).
Here's a link to the article, maybe Bleeding Cool doesn't allow hotlinking

Yeah, that link did nothing. Is it on the front page?

If you're talking about his second post where he went into some detail, that first article has it. They just don't have a photo of it, but simply quoted the entire thing in the last paragraph.

Ok, yeah that's it. I don't know why Bleeding Cool won't let me link to it, that's very strange.
