DC is ready for the end of summer with the release of the publisher's full August 2023 solicitations. And August is heating up with the continuation of DC's Knight Terrors line wide event, which takes over nearly every single title DC has with a separate side story in which the heroes and villains of the DC Universe are trapped in nightmare worlds to confront their own worst fears.
With such an all-encompassing story taking hold, almost all the regular titles DC publishes for Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, and the rest of its big name superheroes are all temporarily on hold, replaced by Knight Terrors tie-in limited series that are in their second and third issues in August.
That said, there are still a few non-Knight Terrors stories happening in August. For one thing, there's Action Comics Presents: Doomsday Special #1, which features Supergirl and the Martian Manhunter taking on the monster that killed Superman, the eponymous Doomsday, as he returns to help set up the next big Superman event.
Then there's the continuation of Steelworks, the new ongoing title dedicated to Superman's ally John Henry Irons, which is written by Star Trek actor Michael Dorn, who voiced Steel on Superman: The Animated Series - and who recently gave Newsarama some more insight into the title.
And then there's one last big summer splash on deck with G'nort's Illustrated Swimsuit Special, a tongue-in-cheek one-shot that collects many of DC's swimsuit covers over the last several years along with some new summer fun-focused stories to boot.
Read on for some of the biggest highlights from DC's August 2023 solicitations followed by everything else that DC is coming out with. If you're looking for more, you can also check out all of Marvel and DC's recent listings here on our solicitations tab.
Upcoming DC Comics August 2023: Spotlight
Knight Terrors continues to dominate DC's August solicitations, and I'm excited to see where this thing goes as it reaches the start of its grand finale with Knight Terrors: Night's End #1. I'm also pleased to see The Joker miniseries get another witty cover and the tease that it contains "the most disturbing reveal of the year," is a sure-fire way to have me eagerly looking out for that issue.
Speaking of horror, I didn't read James Tynion IV's The Nice House on the Lake on its release a couple of years back, so the collected edition is high on my list this month. I'm digging Álvaro Martínez Bueno's cover for the book, and the premise - a group of old friends get together for the holiday of a lifetime, find themselves in a lot of trouble - is right up my street.
At the other end of the spectrum, I really enjoyed the brash goofiness of Peacemaker Tries Hard! #1 earlier this month and it's gonna be interesting to see where Kyle Starks and Steve Pugh take the series over the next few issues.
Finally, a big shout out to DC for the inspired cover to G'nort's Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Comics should be fun and the whole premise of that release gave everyone at Newsarama a big grin. Good stuff - but what are you most looking forward to reading?

/Who are the Vigil?/
/Dodge file loading…
Dodge is the speedster metahuman in the secret organization called the Vigil. Her alias is likely to be a woman who goes by the name Dinah Kom. All files connected to this name have been erased. The only information left that was pieced together by Checkmate is that Dodge has a condition that places an extraordinary amount of fast-twitch muscle fiber in her body. Her suit allows her to control the fibers to move at the speed of thought. The multiversal and space-time repercussions of this are to be discussed in the next transmission.

But Daisy is tired of all the super-heroics interrupting their date nights on a regular basis. Now, just as Virgil is about to invite her to the big Dakota music festival for her birthday, she’s calling it quits and breaking up with him.
Determined to distract his best friend, Virgil’s buddy Richie Foley (also known as the superhero Gear) convinces him that they should use the tickets themselves. When they run into Raquel Ervin and Isadora Wellington—who each have secret identities of their own—what follows is a night that nobody was ready for: a blackout, some super-villains, and a rapper in disguise are just the start. And even worse, there’s Daisy with a new guy…
Virgil is about to learn not even superpowers can conquer a broken heart.
