Popverse's top stories of the day

• COVID left fans wanting the personal touch from their local comic stores
• Think Spy x Family is just a cute slice-of-life anime? You aren't ready for what is coming in season 3 and beyond
• Dan Mora, Scott Snyder, and Frank Miller lead an all-star line-up in Artist Alley for New York Comic Con 2024

At DC's Absolute Power panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2024, Absolute Batman writer Scott Snyder said the publisher would be doing "incentives" and "giveaways" in comic shops each week starting in October to promote the Absolute Universe comics and the 'All In' initiative as a whole - and now we know what a major part of that is.

As revealed in a closed-door retailer event hosted by Lunar Distribution, DC will be sending out Justice League membership cards to retailers beginning in October - with a new Justice League member featured each week. 

"Customers that purchase 4 different All In titles each week will receive a JL membership card for free," reads a slide shared with retailers. "Goal is to get consumers to come to stores every week by giving them an extra reward."

Snyder, who was at the retailer event, opened the door to retailers giving it to more than just those that buy four 'All In' titles - saying it could be any DC title, or in fact any comic at all - even those from Marvel Comics, Image Comics, or anything - including name-checking Silver Sprocket's amazing comics.

• October week 1: Batman
• October week 2: Superman
• October week 3: Wonder Woman
• October week 4: a general Justice League membership card
• November week 4: Darkseid (glow-in-the-dark)

And if you think DC will run out of Justice League members, it's worth noting DC is about to launch a Justice League Unlimited book which has truly an "unlimited" roster.
