I'm going to try really hard to get into DC comics with this event,but you have to meet me half-way here guys. DC, no more of that crap where you try to make this huge event, then back off halway through then retcon it away.
Other than that, anybody here have a full list of the titles being rebooted? Otherwise I'm just going to play it safe and pick up batman and Justice League.
No full list yet but...
"Included in the 52 series will be:
* A new title starring Superman written by Grant Morrison.
* Birds of Prey #1 - This new ongoing series will not feature the work of longtime "BoP" writer Gail Simone. In fact, many tried and true approaches to books will be getting a second look at DC in September.
* Teen Titans #1 - The new start for the teen team will be written by "Red Robin" scribe Fabian Nicieza.
* Justice Society of America #1 - Only one of a number of current titles that will welcome a creative team shift, the future of the original superhero team will apparently not involve current writer Marc Guggenheim.
* Wonder Woman #1 - Don't expect the recent changes from writer J. Michael Straczynski to stick when the Amazing Amazon sees another new #1 hit.
* Green Lantern #1 - Even with a new #1, Green Lantern remains in Johns' hands, and readers can expect the effects of major crossovers like "Blackest Night" to stay in place moving forward.
* Hawkman #1 - While fans have known a "Hawkman" series by James Robinson has been in the works since the writer mentioned it on a panel at New York Comic Con, Johnston has been reporting the rumor that the book will be drawn by "Batman & Robin" and "Outsiders" artist Philip Tan.
* Aquaman #1 - No surprises here. The already announced series featuring the sea king by Johns and Ivan Reis will be part of the relaunch wave."

I'm probably going to pick up Superman and Aquaman. The first because Grant Morrison wrote All Star Superman (best Superhero comic of the last decade) and the second because if anyone can make Aquaman work it's Johns.
No idea who's doing batman but thank god GM's doing other things. The man's too batshit crazy for bats.
