One thing that caught my attention is that Wonder Woman (the original one) is going by DIANA PRINCE again, and they even put that on the cover and on the text of the solicitations.

So it seems that the Superman Wonder Woman book did well enough for it to appear yet again, even if it is under different characters. Better then trinity anyway. Might check this one out if it seems good but not holding my breath.
Yeah I don't expect all the books to survive but there's been 3 interviews and they all say different and yet similar things, like that some of these characters will reappear again, that Future State effects the DCU, that easter eggs will be seen that was shown in the Future State, plus they've given themselves such good leeway in saying that these books takes place 10 to however far into the future and emphasizing that the future is not set in stone so that if there is an imprint some of these books will probably come back modified.
Also is it me or does whatever Clark is doing in Future State somehow make the rumor about Clark leading the Authority that much more plausible, like I thought it was cancelled b/c I thought it was going into this 5G imprint thing and I didn't think of Future State as a possible imprint but now...
Also this was probably already mentioned but I was too lazy to read through the thread but Diana Prince having a batman logo on her belt and the new Batman having a W batarang ...what's up with that.
My priority is black female characters; everything else is secondary.

I don't think much will come of the Clark and Authority pitch as that sounds like a 5G plot and unless they cram that in there somewhere the next writer is probably not following Bendis's plan to closely.
As for Future State characters reappearing, my guess is that Damian is the Future State Red X so that'll flow back and have Damian take that role in main canon since it honestly sounds like Tim is locked in as Robin and that new Wonder Woman I see her being brought into main canon as well. Everything else is kinda meh, I could see the Batman book carrying on as the surviving book like Batman Beyond and have it take that publishing spot and basically morph just as Beyond did.
Pulls:
Coffin: La Muerta, Lady Death, Hellwitch. Valiant: Shadowman. DC: Poison Ivy.

I meant that if there is a Future State imprint Clark would have a book with him leading the Authority like it was seemingly planned for 5G.
It was mentioned in interviews for Future State that Clark is defending the universe as a whole instead of just Earth/Metropolis, well when you think about The Authority, they weren't beholden or they didn't follow the rules/laws, Clark's version of the team would be unquestionable good guys but they wouldn't be beholden to any planet's rule/law.
I also just realized that if there is no Green Lantern power battery for Green Lanterns, Clark and his team would most likely be picking up the slack left by that.
So yeah if there is a Future State imprint this is one of the books I think will happen.

I've been spending too much per month on comics lately. I won't mind a two month break from DC.
Some of this looks alright, but honestly the best thing I'm seeing here is Mora's art.
There's bits and pieces here that sound legit interesting, but for the most part I'm hoping this thing goes by like Convergence did; a fill-in distraction that doesn't really carry any weight beyond its two month course.
Some of this sounds like stuff I wouldn't be against the main line bringing in, like Red X or the new Wonder Woman (so long as Diana remains WW and this new girl finds her own name) and if the rumors are true and we end up with an imprint where some of these characters live on, that's cool too. But mostly all I'm seeing here is two months where DC is just providing some filler, hoping ideas prove popular enough to take root in the main line, and I'm not sure I want to drop four bucks on filler when I could put that cash towards Image or Dark Horse.

I wonder if the Bruce, Clark and Diana books are repurposed from the rumored Black Label line that would have featured the original heroes and not 5G (since early rumors mentioned Bruce would be much older and act like a mentor to Luke much like in Batman Beyond).
Future State could actually be a mix of both that Black Label line and 5G.
On another note, I could definitely see them continuing the popular FS minis later on. Seems like an opportunity for a new imprint, maybe even a digital one that could help bring readers to DCU Infinite.
