Check Out What’s Coming to DC UNIVERSE INFINITE in May!

May is right around the corner, and DC UNIVERSE INFINITE members continue to get more DC perks than ever! From digital access to DC’s smash-hit Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point comics, to Mother’s Day gifts in the DC Shop, to exciting new DC Community forums celebrating AAPI Heritage Month and more, head over to DC UNIVERSE INFINITE as DC’s premium digital comic book service adds even more fan-favorite content in May of 2021!

The official DC Shop has new Wonder Woman tanks and shirts featuring images of the iconic DC Super Hero throughout the years and a reminder to always “Believe in Wonder,” and during the week of May 3 the DC Shop will drop in new content for the matriarch in your life! Let Mom know she’s your hero when a new line of DC t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies for Mother’s Day, all celebrating Wonder Woman, arrive in the DC Shop! Every mom is a Wonder Woman!

And every week in May, DC will celebrate AAPI Heritage Month with collections spotlighting Asian American Pacific Islander creators. All issues of New Super-Man by writer Gene Luen Yang are currently on DC UNIVERSE INFINITE, plus registered members can read all three chapters of Yang and artist Gurihiru’s award-winning Superman Smashes the Klan graphic novel. Greg Pak’s Batman/Superman comics are available to read along with his Action Comics run, all issues of Amy Chu’s Sensation Comics Featuring Wonder Woman and Poison Ivy: Cycle of Life and Death are available, and artist Francis Manapul’s Detective Comics, Trinity and The Flash comics are recommended reading during May’s Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month celebration! Searching DC UNIVERSE INFINITE by your favorite AAPI writer or artist will help you find their DC UNIVERSE INFINITE libraries.

Even if you’re not a registered DC UNIVERSE INFINITE subscriber, DC will feature the following comics for fans to read in full, for free, through the month of May:

  • Superman Smashes the Klan #1-3 (writer: Gene Luen Yang, artist: Gurihiru)

And to celebrate AAPI Heritage Month on the DC Community, Superman Smashes the Klan will be highlighted by the new DC Book Club! Registered DC UNIVERSE INFINITE members can access this award-winning mini-series for free, and DC Book Club participants will be first in line for a live Q&A with writer Gene Luen Yang. DC Book Club participants will also receive digital wallpapers and downloadable bookmarks as extra perks.

And there’s always new comic book content arriving! Coming this May, DC UNIVERSE INFINITE subscribers can read the first issue of Jeff Lemire’s Sweet Tooth: The Return plus the bestselling Punchline one-shot by James Tynion IV, Sam Johns and Mirka Andolfo. The back catalogue of DC’s Milestone comics (Blood Syndicate, Static, Icon, Hardware) continue to be a draw for fans, and new digital issues of Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point, each with an original code to unlock in-universe content, arrive on DC UNIVERSE INFINITE the same date as they arrive in print!
