"Countdown" preview on My Space

If you’ve got your doubts about committing to “Countdown,” DC’s new weekly series that debuts right after “52” ends, here’s a way to sample the first two issues for free. DC announced today that it will post the first two issues online at www.myspace.com/comicbooks. Here’s how it’ll work:

The first 10 pages of issue No. 51 (that’s the first issue) will be on www.myspace.com/comicbooks on May 4.

The last 12 pages of No. 51 will be on the site on May 11, along with the first 12 pages of No. 50.

The last 10 pages of No. 50 will be on the site on May 18.
