Happy New Year to the Mistress of Magic and the most iconic leggy dame in nylons .
I hope so too. But DC needs to be clever about it.
IMO Zee is really popular among the general population but not so much among the comic book readers. So she might not get the numbers to last very long.
One way to sell her would be to make her book be connected to the Main JLD. Also the tone of the book needs to be serious and have some horror elements.
It's a real shame that the one ongoing she got was at the worst time in her life and that only lasted for 16 issues.
I feel bad for saying this but I didn't like Paul Dini's run.

I like Dini's characterization of Zatanna but his plots can be meh at times.
I want a Zatanna ongoing too but Zee's been stuck in dark gothic aesthetic of the Nu52 for a decade now, it's time for something new. I don't need every Zatanna story to be spooky but I don't need every story to be light either. I would prefer a mix of both. Build up her supporting characters and bring back characters like Zachary, Dale Colton, Jeff Sloane (albeit revamped) and Tong (again revamped). Enough with the rehashes where she searches for her father or angsts about his death or relationship drama with Constantine/Batman/Nightwing, build up and modernize underused concepts and characters like her mother Sindella and the Hidden City. Build up on her relationship with heroes like Wonder Woman, Black Canary, Batman, Ray Palmer, Hawkman & Hawkgirl, given that they are both in the show biz I'm surprised there hasn't been a cross over between her and Booster Gold. If you need other heroes to beef up her ongoing without overshadowing her throw in Madame Xanadu, Blue Devil, Kid Devil, Traci 13 or Black Alice.
I really enjoyed Paul Dini's book and I'm kind of over super serious supernatural Zee. I'd be fine with a solo book that balanced tones and magic well.
I posted this on the old thread shortly before it was locked. Part of my Christmas comic haul was this lovely book...
the 2nd appearance of Zee in Atom #19.
Hoping to add Zee's solo back ups in Adventure Comics and Supergirl to my collection this year.

My name is Wally West. I"m the fastest man alive. I"m the Flash.
Favorite Heroes - 1-Flash/Wally West, 2-Superman, 3-Green Lantern/Hal Jordan, 4-Nightwing, 5-Hawkman, 6-Firestorm, 7-Supergirl/Linda Danvers, 8-Zatanna, 9-Robin/Tim Drake
Awesome. This was part of Zatanna's Search for her Father.
I hope Ray and Zee have more interactions in the future.
JLA(1997)#69
This was the last time I saw them interact before IC.
They look cute together.
I maybe wrong but I think Zatanna is probably the first legacy character of the opposite gender.
