Yeah. I enjoyed Consantine: Hellblazer. It was fun and fresh take, but I'm ready to return to classic Hellblazer darkness.

All in all, I am prepared to call this a win.
Batbooks are 1000000% hype, most of the Superbooks sound at least good, there's definitely some stinkers in the JL books, and I get more Blue Beetle.
2.99!

Late May. I skipped ahead in the live stream, did they mention Jay Garrick?

That is one whack-ass team though.
Snyder's doing All-Star Batman, which is not a continuation of Frank Miller's uh seminal work but a whole new thing with a bevy of artists most of whom are awesome.
Well I just paid $5.99 USD for Batman #50 (digital) this week, lol
That was 55 pages.
DC committing to this $2.99 USD price tag is the best news for me (hopefully).

Don't think Earth 2 really came up.
Probably because DC needs to work harder for new readership and keeping their old than Marvel at the moment.

Well, as usual Batman gets the best writers and artists but overall it looks pretty solid. I'm excited for All Star Batman, the Superman books, Wonder Woman, Flash (potentially), Deathstroke and Blue Beetle.
Too bad for Green lantern.

Cheap 80 page giant issues is a DC tradition

Curious what Johns is working on, I'm guessing Shazam finally since he said it was a background character. Maybe JSA too.
Did they say anything about Earth 2? Could be JSA won't be launched until August or so.
Ah Ok. Keeping JLA and that under wraps is suspect. So excite.

Too true
Do you really want tight editorial oversight considering the people currently running editorial?

Alright GAF so now that the Rebirth news is out are we gonna have a Rebirth OT like with Marvel?
........................................don't get too excited.
Artemis is up in the air but Bizarro is automatically fire.

The good books that aren't part of the trinity family seem DoA sadly.
Doesn't change that Marvel isn't pressured as much as DC atm.
Well Vision is a Marvel character, can hardly expect him to turn up in a DC comic...

Well DC is kinda desperate right now while Marvel probably doesn't really give a shit about Civil War 2. It's just a movie tie-in.
Just make CW2 and other big books 3-4 dollars and then boom, problem solved.
FFS Deadpool #10 or 11 is 10 bucks.

Boo, no real Wally & no Earth 2. Nu52 Wally had a dope costume, should've just used that.

Rebirth OT would be cool, but I'm lazy.
Also, I like Bizarro, but putting him on a team with Red Hod and Artemis is the single strangest decision I've ever seen.
Aight.
We'll see.

Yes, Ted Kord is back!
So they are going to be using Wonder Woman's movie look from now on?
Really digging the Wonder Woman cover. Very filled, but it doesn't feel crowded. Everything is clear and visible.
Im okay with that
Anyone?
I'll give BB 12 issues max.

Didn't watch this live, but they didn't announce anything about the Earth 2/Justice Society book, did they? Guess they're saving that for the one-shot.
Also, LOL at the reports of creative teams being pulled and changed at the last minute. I hope this isn't New 52 all over again, but it probably will be with this editorial team.

I'm saying Civil War 2 is gonna suck.
/explainingthejoke
Who is this character? I thought superboy was a lot older than, what, 10yo like Damian?
That's Lois and Clark's son.
Looking at something like JL3K, Giffen books have the potential to go the distance.

Don't know for sure, but I'm guessing Jon Kent, son of pre-flashpoint Superman & Lois.

The reasonable bet would be on Jon, son of the pre-flashpoint Lois and Clark. He discovered his powers in the most recent issue, and with it confirmed that that Clark will be encountering the 'main' one, some kind of training agreement doesn't seem too crazy.
Or maybe Jon ends up meeting Damian on his own terms and thing go from there.

What's the lie.
More than that, I'm gonna have to go over it but before they announced creative teams I was at I like like 20 titles?
It is Bendis so you're 1/2 right

I usually just by my comics in trade but I think I might have to start a pull list for this. I definitely want Detective and Nightwing the second they come out. I might also pick up Titans. Is there a place where you can buy digital copies of these? I have an LCS I go to but I'm just curious.

The shilouette's certianly implied that and wally (his hair was spiky, not like new52 wally) and jay garrick. I think we'll have to wait until Rebirth.
