That's weird. When I first saw the Adventure solicit, I thought it was a resolicit of 526. But that can't be right since it's 527. Did th original Comet Queen story get expanded to two issues? (but if that's the case, why use the same text for both issues?)

Or has this first Academy story been expanded beyond three issues?

Or maybe someone messed up on this solicitation and the real text and cover is still to come?

Levitz had initially said in an interview months ago that the opening Academy arc could be three or four parts before ultimately announcing it would be three.

Perhaps they decided on making it a four parter last minute, but it was after the original solicitation for May's #526 had been published? So Comet Queen's solo tale has now been pushed back and thus the repeat, maybe.

Love Wildfire's look on the cover.

What a surprise...Gates finally getting to write his Kid Flash story. I mean, it's only been two years since Johns' announcement of such. :rolleyes:

i notice that the price went up $10 since the Deluxe Great Darkness reprint. I think I'll still buy it though.

Nice to actually see Element Lad unconscious heheh....he's just too powerful usually to get knocked out.

A new inker for Yildiray, I see.
