DC announces 'Wednesday Comics'
Published Tuesday, Jun 16 2009, 09:45 BST | By Mark Langshaw

Wednesday Comics will run for 12 weeks, offering 15 different stories involving characters from the DC Comics universe.
Creators include John Arcudi and Lee Bermejo on Superman, Brian Azzarello on Batman, Adam and Joe Kubert on Sgt. Rock, Paul Pope on Adam Strange, Dave Gibbons on Kamandi, Kyle Baker on Hawkman and duo Neil Gaiman and Michael Allred on Metamorpho.
"There's a certain romance to the history of the big old Sunday funnies that I wanted to try to recapture in Wednesday Comics," says DC art director Mark Chiarello. "Why not dust off the format and have a little fun?"
American newspaper USA Today has confirmed that it will serialise the Superman storyline each Wednesday, beginning July 8. UK readers can access each of the weekly strips online at usatoday.com.
