DC Comics Promotes Marie Javins to Editor-in-Chief
According to DC's press release, Javins will work closely with both Cherry and Publisher/Chief Creative Officer Jim Lee to chart a new direction for DC in 2021. Her responsibilities will include "developing and overseeing the execution of the company’s annual publishing schedule to grow all DC imprints. She’ll also lead the strategy for expanding worldwide consumer reach of DC Publishing content and provide editorial and creative direction for DC imprints."
“As a young girl devouring comics of Wonder Woman, Nubia, and Supergirl, I never dreamed that decades later, I’d be at the helm of the mighty DC Comics,” said Javins. “I’m incredibly honored by this responsibility, and will dedicate myself to supporting and challenging DC’s extended family of staff, talent, retailers, and partners around the world in our quest to tell innovative visual stories that both reflect and expand our world—and in some cases, our galaxy and multiverse.”
It's unclear exactly how much DC's publishing strategy will change in the months and years ahead. But as we've previously explored, all signs point to DC undergoing major changes in 2021. Javins' prior editing experience suggests DC may be shifting away from traditional, monthly superhero comics in favor of more self-contained graphic novels and digital-first releases. That certainly gels with Lee's earlier comments about DC streamlining its publishing lineup going forward.
[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=future-state-every-comic-in-dcs-massive-2021-crossover&captions=true"]
"We will be reducing the size of the slate," Lee told The Hollywood Reporter. "But it’s about looking at everything and looking at the bottom 20 percent, 25 percent of the line that wasn’t breaking even or was losing money. It’s about more punch for the pound, so to speak, and increasing the margins of the books that we are doing. It was about aligning the books to the franchise brand content we’ve developed and making sure that every book we put out, we put out for a reason."
We do know that DC is gearing up for Future State, a two-month-long crossover in January and February 2021 that will reveal the future of the DCU ten years into the future. Future State will feature Jon Kent taking up the mantle of Superman and introduce a new Wonder Woman named Yara Flor, while 12 Years a Slave writer John Ridley will be chronicling the adventures of a brand new Batman. The company has hinted at big plans for March 2020, likely involving a line-wide relaunch building on the fallout of Dark Nights: Death Metal, but what exactly they have in store remains to be seen.

Spider-Man PS5: You Can Buy Miles Morales’ Shoes in Real Life
Marvel and Adidas have revealed that Miles Morales' shoes from Spider-Man: Miles Morales will be available for purchase starting next week.
Miles Morales and his Spider-Man persona are known for a lot of things, including the shoes he wears. He's traditionally seen wearing Nike Air Jordan 1's, as seen in 2018's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, but in the upcoming PlayStation game, he'll be wearing a pair of Adidas' instead. Those exact Adidas shoes will be available in real life for purchase starting November 19 and you can check out what they look like in the slideshow below. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=marvels-spider-man-miles-morales-adidas-shoes&captions=true"] "Miles is a stylish teenager from Brooklyn who has just moved to Harlem," a press release for the shoes reads. "In the beginning of the game he has designed his own Spider Suit out of sportswear (and) everyday clothing he loves to wear. But it wouldn't be a Spider-Man suit without drip, and Miles needed some killer sneakers to complete the look. Enter Adidas." Insomniac Games, PlayStation, and Marvel Games worked in close collaboration with Adidas to create these new sneakers for fans to wear in real life and for Miles to wear in the game. The shoes pay honor to New York with the Adidas Superstar silhouette just in time for the 50th anniversary, according to the press release. "It's a classic design, connected to New York, and quintessentially Adidas, and one that features the timeless colors for which Spider-Man is most known: the black suit with the red spider icon." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/11/06/marvels-spider-man-miles-morales-review"] Adidas says players will see Miles wear both hi-top and low-top variants of these Adidas Superstar silhouettes in the game when using select suits. As for what suits those shoes are featured in, you'll be able to discover that yourself when the game releases this week on November 12. You can purchase these Adidas shoes on November 19 on adidas.com in the U.S., Canada, and Asia-Pacific regions. While waiting for the shoes and game to drop, check out our Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales review and then read the official IGN PlayStation 5 review. If you don't yet have a PS5 preorder, here's how to get a PlayStation 5 on release day. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Wesley LeBlanc is a freelance news writer and guide maker for IGN.
