Here's another line of titles I have no interest in: dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2011/06/09/welcome-to-the-edge/Stormwatch by Paul Cornell and Miguel Sepuveda
Blackhawks by Mika Costa and Ken Lashley
Sgt. Rock and the Men of War by Ivan Brandon and Tom Derenick
All-Star Western by Justin Gray, Jim Palmiotti, and Moritat
Deathstroke by Kyle Higgins, Joe Bennett and Art Thibert
Grifter by Nathan Edmonson, CAFU, and BIT
OMAC by Keith Giffin and Scott KoblishBy my calculations, there are 6 more titles to be revealed, and by process of elimination, it must be the Superman line.

Here we are. The last of the 52 titles, and they're Superman related. dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2011/06/10/history-happens-now/Action Comics by Grant Morrison and Rags Morales
Superman by George Perez and Jesus Merino
Supergirl by Michael Green, Mike Johnson, and Mahmud Asrar
Superboy by Scott Lobdell, RB Silva, and Rob LeanI don't think Superman's costume look too bad. It's updated, and his underwear's not on the outside anymore, lol. So out of all the titles announced, I'll be picking up Justice League, The Flash, Justice League International, Batman, Detective Comics, Batman and Robin, Batman: The Dark Knight, and Nightwing.

^ From the looks of things, I will be picking up Justice League, Action Comics, Batman, Detective Comics, Nightwing, Batgirl (even though I am not to happy with how she was handled), and maybe Aquaman and Wonder Woman if the reviews are good.

If they want to turn over the entire universe to someone to redesign for purposes of streamlining, simplifying, and to make accessible to new readers ... they shouldve went to Bruce Timm and or Darwyn Cooke! IMO DC drastically over values Jim Lee. Hes a great artist w/o question but c'mon. Geoff Johns is fantastic but will be burning out any second. They need to dump Didio as Editor immediately. Hes had his chance and has shown he has no decent or original ideas nor direction.

To me, this whole thing shows DC's lack of long term planning. There have been so many #1's released in comics that after this relaunch, I just wonder how long before we see a new batch of #1 issues. A year? This thing could be really good, but it seems like it's being handled so poorly. Is this the end of retcons? Nope. Will books have more consistency as far as writers and artists? Doubt it. Will this bring in new readers like it's try to do? Not a chance. They aren't advertising outside of the medium, which is how they would make their money. They also are shooting themselves in the foot by making digital issues the same price as print. Digital should be less expensive because there is no cost to print. Heck, if they ran internet ads with a link to cheaper digital comics, I could see that being a good solution.

There have been so much new starts and new parallel (or even unparallel) worlds these past few years. I am already totally lost in DC's Universe... (not to mention that living far from the US prevent me from buying regularly and chronologically my comics). One more step into their now labyrinthic fog will neither get me back on the right track nor get me even more lost. Anyhow, I hope they will soon stop this permanently changing mind and quickly offer us an equally logical and "magic/fantastic" STABLE universe.

This could be the full line-up for the new Justice League: Looks like we got Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash, Hal Jordan, Cyborg, Deadman, Atom, Element Woman, Firestorm, Green Arrow, Hawkman, Black Canary, and Mera.

its about time they add Mera to the team. hopefully thats the team. a solid lineup. i'm kind of looking forward to the relaunch. some of the new titles i've been wanting for awhile, like Red Lanterns and Deathstroke finally getting another solo book. i'm glad Wildstorm is joining the main universe. i'm very curious to see how they work the characters into the fold. the Grifter series looks amazing and the teases make it seem like he does something epic in Flashpoint or that they'll flashback something epic he's done. i mean they're calling him the most wanted man in the dcu. regardless, he's been long over do for a solo ongoing.

Well, I really only have interest in trying the new jla and nightwing. None of the other new titles appeal to me. Ill continue with gl, gl corps, batman, and detective. I might try the new guardians depending. But with the new numbering I figure its a perfect jumping off point if none of them (including the bat books) if the fail to blow me away.

It's just the first arc of Justice League that's set in the past, telling the new origin of the team. After that, it should be set in the present. As for Action Comics, all I've heard is Grant's telling the early days of Superman.

I also am worried about all this. Especially the Teen Titans and Superboy. It seems that Superboy, Wonder Girl, and Kid Flash have all just appeared, while Tim Drake is still exactly where he was before this happened. Except he's back with the Teen Titans instead of the Outsiders. I am also disappointed that he will not get a title with the Outsiders.
I will primarily be getting Green Lantern books, which all look to not have too many changes. I will also get Justice League and Justice League International. I am sort of bummed that the team featured in the latter is somewhat different than the team featured at the end of Justice League: Generation Lost.
Also, what's with not having a JSA title. Also, I'm guessing the other characters whose books were featured in the JLA line will be the remaining seven members of the new League. Captain Atom. Mister Terrific. Hawkman. Firestorm. Green Arrow. That leaves two more open spaces. I'm guessing that J'onn is unfortunately excluded due to him being replaced in the magnificent seven by Cyborg.
It's funny. The first post in this thread mentioned feeling like DC was pulling a Heroes Reborn. That's exactly how I feel. Hopefully any negative effects won't last too long.
