Skipping the Superman one shot. Waiting to see the first solicits for Bendis Superman to decide if continuing that title.

Aren’t you getting DC Nation for 25 cents? That

[vasir12]

I missed that. So how many is that?

No big losses IMO.

Green Lanterns, Hal N' Pals and Flash are still bi weekly

Also Injustice. I really prefer the twice monthly schedule so this is a bummer.

[chachi]

Nightwing sells better than Suicide Squad, yet it's going monthly, while SS is still twice a month.

By mid to late Summer, I suspect all DC titles will be monthly.

[protege]

I’m kind of disappointed- i thought no justice was going to be four seperate miniseries. Truth be told, i’m only interested in wonder woman’s team.

[chachi]

Aren’t you getting DC Nation for 25 cents? That

Yes I missed that when I posted.

[Lee Stone]

I have a very strong fear that Joker will kill or cripple Catwoman during the wedding.
And send Batman even further over the edge into Punisher-mode, likely turning him into a full-blown anti-hero with guns and pouches.

Please, DC, don't give in to the ways of the dark side...

Their story will probably continue in whatever teen team they end up on following No Justice.

[BatmanJones]

It's a good thing for my bank account that I only buy DC because I buy so much DC. But I only buy the DC books I truly enjoy. These are those.

For those concerned that there's no Teen Titans or Titans solicit there's also no Justice League solicit apart from No Justice. It seems clear to me that June will feature new titles based on what happens in No Justice. I don't expect that either Titans book is going way, only that they'll be overhauled somehow.

The books I'm extra excited for are in bold.

DC Nation #0
Action Comics Special
Superman Special (even if the lead stories aren't great the creators on the backup stories are)
JL: No Justice
Doomsday Clock
New Challengers (one of only two Dark Matter books that interest me)
The Terrifics (the only Dark Matter book I'm genuinely excited about)
Aquaman
Mera
Batman
B&B: Batman/Wonder Woman
Deathstroke
Detective Comics
Flash (I'm finally excited by this series)
Green Arrow (giving the new creators a chance)
Green Arrow Annual 2
Hal Jordan & GLC (this one is always on the bubble for me and I keep dropping then re-adding)
Injustice
Mister Miracle
Nightwing (I'm giving Percy one issue to convince me)
Super Sons (glad it's ending though - needs a fresh start)
Red Hood and the Outlaws (the little book that could)
Wonder Woman (though I cannot wait for a Robinson replacement)
Eternity Girl
Shade the Changing Woman
Snagglepuss(!!)

I also have to say I really wish they would put Humphries back on Green Lanterns. His version was one of my favorite pulls. Seeley's has been so boring I dropped it after two issues. And now it doesn't seem like Humphries is writing anything for DC. Shame. He was really terrific on GL's and really made me fall in love with Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz. This was a case of trying to fix something that was working like crazy and did not need fixing and when one does that one typically winds up breaking a thing that was working. That's exactly what happened here. Went from a top pull to unreadable in two issues. And I have not been digging on HJ/GLC like others have so GL's was the one GL book I really looked forward to. Now there are none that I actually look forward to and I just keep buying Hal Jordan in hopes it will get better or that I'll somehow come to enjoy what everyone else that likes this series or loves it does.

Flash War looks awful so far, I hope it is going to be short. The last Flash annual has shown me that even Williamson can't make Wally likeable, and I am not going to enjoy having to endure him as a protagonist for an entire story arc.

I am probably going to drop Action Comics with the special and I will decide if I want to pick it up again with the reviews.

You are entitled to your opinion but that’s insane.
