DC Future State

[Frontier]

I would appreciate if these characters aren't all no-names and actually have some kind of history to them.

Gotham is under the thumb of a dictator?
I feel like I'm more interested to see how the rogues react to that.

Looks like you'll get some of that in Future State: Harley Quinn.

Maaaan, Vibe was done dirty with the creation of Sideways like WTF!!!!

Vibe did get a short-lived solo in the new 52 so they did try to revamp him.

His problems were tied to his intro in the 80s. Fans have long memories and they hold grudges.

Sideways doesn't hurt Vibe to me.

Ragman had a young sidekick during the Trinity series called Tatters maybe this is his mainstream version. https://comicvine.gamespot.com/tatters/4005-58286/

The vampire looking one could be a child of Man-Bat.

The simian could be a revamped Gorbul Mammit https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Gorbul_Mammit_(New_Earth)

These are cool pitches.

I'm ok with new names. Dc and Marvel feel too insular and thats more of a problem for TT.

I think there are plenty of other characters that could be used to expand the franchise without needing a bunch of new characters in my opinion.

People complain about new characters too much while in the same breath talking about how they don't like "replacements" and that DC should come up with new characters, while at the same time talking about how much they like legacy but only for specific characters and not when they actually take over a mantle...

Too many mixed messages, so I'm glad in this case DC is ignoring fans.

I think in this case it's more that there are a bunch of lesser name or obscure Titans, or younger Titans who got ignored with a subsequent relaunch, that DC could be focusing on instead of a bunch of new characters.

[Hypo]

DC revealed the identity of the next Batman

[Will Evans]

About who most people were starting to figure it was.

Well looks like I’m picking that up.

early spoiler-free reviews for Future State

[lemonpeace]

they had an interesting variation on the FS: Justice League cover where they have this Batman's face exposed. this is the second time we've seen this Batman's face exposed, maybe at this point Batman is more comfortable exposing his face or it may be a different Batman than the Timothy version in The Next Batman

Maybe Gotham's no longer a totalitarian dictatorship that requires him to hide his identity so thoroughly?
