Bleedingcool hinting DC is looking to get away from monthly printed comics in the next several years because ATT/WarnerMedia see the fast turn around time for printing, rushed editing and it just doesn't make sense in 2020 financially....Said in the next few years expect DC to shift more towards Original Graphic Novels, especially geared towards teens, as recent OGNs have sold really, really well (slik note: I liked the Catwoman one, "Under The Moon") and there is no rush to get them to press. They also won't have to worry about continuity, as all OGNs take place in their own, contained universe. DC recently signed a big deal with book publishing magnate Penguin Books, who will help market and distribute all future OGNs. Moving away gradually from monthly comics is rumored to be part of the reason they canned Diamond as well.


BleedingCool.com speculates if monthly comics exist in a few years, it will be less titles and likely all digital release only.
This is kinda cool actually. After they rebooted the new 52 I stopped collecting Batman. If they came out with a few graphic novels a yr I'd be happy to fork over the cash for a long read as opposed to watching a storyline play out over a yr or so.
