DC Comics Takes Us to the Movies with March Variant Covers

Sometimes, being owned by a massive conglomerate does allow you to have a little fun. While Warner Bros. often doesn’t seem to know what they want to do with DC Comics, DC is having a little bit fun with the Warner Bros. properties that they’re related to.

For the month of March, 22 DC Comics series will have variant covers based on classic Warner Bros. movies. We have them in a handy comparative slideshow.
