DC Makes the New 52 Canon + Major Timeline Changes! | Comic Issues Daily — Sept 25, 2025

Comic Issues Daily for September 25, 2025 covers the biggest comic book news stories and market updates you need to know. DC Comics has officially made the New 52 canon again in New History of the DC Universe #3, sparking major conversation among fans. Alongside that, DC confirmed multiple timeline changes, including making the Dakotaverse fully canon and clarifying Jon Kent’s history. We’ll also discuss Sideways, DC’s own “Spider-Man” character who has been left on the sidelines despite strong potential.

Marvel makes headlines too, with a debate over the best characters introduced in the 1990s and how they continue to influence comics and adaptations today. On the DC side, Wonder Woman surpasses Superman as the world’s symbol of hope in Wonder Woman #25, while the new event DC’s K.O. explores the impossible task of evacuating Earth before Apokolips arrives. We also spotlight Dynamite’s announcement of Gargoyles: Winter Special #1, coming this December, and Bleeding Cool’s LITG column showing how the Matriarch storyline is dominating fan conversation.

To close, we dive into today’s CovrPrice Daily Shakers, featuring major sales of iconic key issues including Amazing Spider-Man #1, Ultimate Fallout #4 (Miles Morales), All-Flash #1, Incredible Hulk #181, Star Wars #1, Giant-Size X-Men #1, Sub-Mariner #34, New Mutants #98, Amazing Spider-Man #129, and Batman #423. Whether you collect Golden Age, Silver Age, or Modern keys, these sales show how strong the comic market remains across every era.
