In 2018, Action Comics (Volume 1) reaches #1000. The series, which returned to its original numbering with #957 two years before, is the first DC series to reach the milestone, and celebrates with an oversized issue with all-star creative teams.
The DC Extended Universe finds its biggest commercial success to date with Aquaman. The movie becomes the highest grossing DC movie but receives mixed reviews; praising the tone and direction by James Wan but faulting the plot and runtime.
