DC Comics has announced the launch of a new ongoing series. Titled Batman/Superman,the title will flash back to tell of the first meetings between the New 52-era Batman and Superman.

The new series, set to debut in June, will be written by Greg Pak (Planet Hulk) who will be teaming with artist Jae Lee (Before Watchmen: Ozymandias).

“It is a real thrill, and it’s particularly a thrill because we’re being given some real leeway to do some really important storytelling with these characters. It really defines some great things and to depict some really key moments for them,” Pak said in an interview with USA Today.

Pak further promises that first story “arc will have ramifications later on down the line…we’re going to start in the past but it’ll reverberate through.”
