Sounds like a lot of fun. Puts the #51 JL cover into context.

I'm in.
 
I'm going to miss Grayson and I'm pretty surprised at Red Hood and the Outlaws.

Nightwing is there. Given the recent Court of Owl stuff, him being Nightwing full-time again was in the cards.

I'm down. So this isn't a reboot at all.

Pretty much DC's version of Superior Spider-Man. I think I'm in.
 
I'm not a fan of the shared universe.
I realise that it is a big part of comics but I hate it when stories crossover, or an event happens, or something gets referenced from another comic book. I would rather nice self contained stories.
I also hope that the twice a month comics don't suffer in quality. I did read Batman Eternal and that was alright. So I'll hold off judging the quality until they hit.

I'm fine with renumbering them, they're just numbers. And I'm fine with them messing with continuity and everything, the old stories will always be there, but the new stories have to be good.

That's all I ask for. Well told stories.

With her life changed forever, Lois Lane leaves the Daily Planet behind to become a full time superhero but how will the Pre-Flashpoint Lois Lane feel about Lois using her husband’s powers?

That's going to anger some folk.

I suppose there was very little point in continuing Grayson after King had left, but going back to being discount Batman makes me sad.

Huntress then? Maybe?

Maybe, but Huntress has always felt like an emotionally immature character to me.

Helena as we now know her is a goddamn adult. This would be a massive regression.

It would be like getting the current Batwoman to become Batgirl. Or hell, getting Simone's Batgirl to become some trendy hipster.

Well then we finally have a Huntress that isn't a shitbag. I mean Tim took on the Robin name after Jason Todd...
 
Titans is about dick and friends and teen Titans is about Damien and friends.

Titans is going to be the old school Wolfman / Perez Teen Titans but now in their twenties and Teen Titans will be Damian, Blue Beetle (I guess), etc.

Haven't they tried it before back in 2000 or something and it did not work? Two teams wuth very similar names is confusing for the casual readers.

Dick was better in the Outsiders pre-52 but with Red Hood that will not happen again

I always thought Huntress was meh. But if they keep the current Helena as amazing then it could work.It would be especially great just for all the racist crying on twitter. Also I thought Tim Drake was never robin or something?

I feel like singles could be structured as "seasons" kind of like TV is. New number ones whenever a new season starts. Usually from a change in creative team, but doesn't have to be a hard rule.


Did they actually mention my girl Cass? :eek:
Isn't that what Marvel does?
 
Isn't that what Marvel does?

Marvel's doing it a fair bit more often than that.

There's got to be a balance, you need to signal to the masses that "hey, this is a good jumping on point," but restting to #1 constantly just creates a cycle where people buy the book, drop it immediately and buy it again for the #1. Stability.

Guessing Jaime will be a part of the Teen Titans book, especially with that lineup being featured in the new titans movie.

Will be legit surprised if Blue Beetle gets past 12 issues.



imo from most likely to least

1. Aquaman (Mentioned Seven Seas recently)
2. JSA (mentIoned missing them the most as part of the new 52)
3. Flash (just because he's his favorite character)

I don't think he'll be back on GL. He had a long, satisfying run with it's own epilogue.



Could be that they haven't announced it due to not wanting to spoil Rebirth. Earth-2 could be a false cover for JSA. Just seems odd to be big on legacy but keeping them on a seperate earth.

Could Earth 2 be a stealth JSA book?

RIP Midnighter and JL3k1
Forever in our hearts, they will remain
As long as Lobdell has dirt on Bob Harras, Red Hood and the Outlaws will never die.
I'm okay with the book existing, just give it to not Lobdell. Give it to Simone.
PISTOLS AT DAWN, SIR!
People sassing Nightwing, one of the greatest heroes of our time
