    Default List (at least) 10 comics DC Comics HAS to publish

    Name at least 10 comics that DC comics has to publish - in other words, these are comics/heroes that are always going to identify who/what DC Comics is.

    Action Comics
    Detective Comics
    Superman
    Batman
    Wonder Woman
    The Flash
    Green Lantern
    Aquaman
    Teen Titans
    Justice League

    Action Comics
    Detective Comics
    Wonder Woman
    Superman
    Batman
    The Flash
    Green Lantern
    Justice League
    (Teen) Titans - Title doesn't really matter, just that its Dick's generation.
    Suicide Squad or a Harley Quinn solo.

    OP Comic and heroes are different thing. There are heroes like Batman and Superman that need at least two titles to work, but because most of the answer here already in comic format so I will continue there.:

    Action Comics
    Superman
    Detective Comics
    Batman
    The Flash
    Green Lantern
    Wonder Woman
    Justice League
    Teen Titans
    Aquaman

    This is the ideal that we should at least get, in REAL world it will be like:

    The Action Comics
    Superman
    Detective Comics
    Batman
    The Legends of the Dark Knight
    Flash
    Wonder Woman
    Harley Quinn
    Batman and the Outsiders
    Batman and the Justice League with rotating member in PLANET GOTHAM (Earth)

    Not sure about any other title, but DC has to keep publishing Wonder Woman, or ownership rights revert back to the Estate of William Marston.

    Batman and any IP's that they are about to lose their rights to. That's it.

    DC's goal is to make money. Batman is the only Franchise that makes any money that's worth anything from Comics.

    Superman etc Dc doesn't need to put out comics save to ensure that it doesn't fall into the public domain

    Logically, the 10 books they need to publish would be their 10 best selling ongoing series. Based on most recent sales data, that would be the below:

    Batman
    Flash
    Detective Comics
    Justice League
    Batman/Superman
    Superman
    Action Comics
    Green Lantern
    Legion of Super Heroes
    Wonder Woman

    The crazy thing is that the lowest selling of those (Wonder Woman) came in at number 66. There's that few ongoing DC books in the top sellers list. Most of what they are selling are minis seemingly.

    Monthly Pull List: Alan Scott: The Green Lantern, Birds of Prey, Daredevil, Geiger, Green Arrow, Justice Ducks, Justice Society of America, Negaduck, Nightwing, Phantom Road, Shazam!, Suicide Squad: Dream Team, Thundercats, Titans

    No idea, but it’s something i heard ages ago and this thread brought it to mind so i looked it up to see if it was true.
