On Wednesday DC Comics released solicitations for The New 52 – Futures End #5-8 shipping in June 2014. Below you’ll find the cover to issue #5 by Ryan Sook, followed by solicitations for the issues. Looks like our favorite Nuclear Dudes are in some trouble! A few things to notice: (1) Jason is sporting glasses — nice tip of the hat to Professor Stein; and (2) Jason is kneeling on the Firestorm insignia. I’m intrigued!
