Tom Taylor has another announcement coming tomorrow.

It would be cool if the green lanterns got the one bad day treatment
It would be cool if we got any book at all
That picture in if #0 is more cursed everyday
You know what DC could really use more of right now? Bat-books.
Seriously, the lack of long-term thinking here is kind of staggering. If you flood the market with books selling only one flavor of DC, you end up diluting the brand and alienating the readers who love the 90% of the DCU that isn't Bat-centric.
DC: Dick Grayson, Wally West, Donna Troy, Yara Flor, Titans
Some of my favorite Mangas: One Piece, Slam Dunk, Fullmetal Alchemist, HunterXHunter, Vinland Saga, Monster, Berserk, Vagabond.
Current reading: Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man, Spy X Family, Kaiju Nº8, Blue Lock, Dandadan.
Batman sells and has sold for a very long time. People keeping saying that DC is going to reach a saturation point, hell I myself said as much in the past, but it never happens. People just can’t get enough Batman. And these books aren’t all coming out in one month, although why they announced them all so early ahead of time is beyond me.
Well Titans has been trash for… well for forever basically so Taylor taking over their book wouldn’t be the worst thing that’s happened to them.

It's getting very repetitive, but you're right. At this point, unless WB accidentally sells the Batman film rights to a competing studio and they decide they don't want to give them free publicity and characters to use, I don't see DC slowing down with their Batman publications. WHich is tiresome, because they get endlessly repetitive.
Looking at sales numbers, no wonder they keep on making so many Batman titles. In terms of sales, high in the top are mainly Batman and related characters. So the problem is that the audience for the most part is interested in him first of all. Even if the audience gets tired of Batman, it will likely mean that the last pillar will collapse.
About Taylor announcement, I'm betting it's DCeased 3.

Yes it’s DCeased 3 and yes as someone who loves the DCeased series I will be reading this. Love the idea of zombie new gods when we have a cure for the virus and the green lanterns are getting involved.
Plus that Dan Mora cover is just amazing

"It's fun and it's cool, so that's all that matters. It's what comics are for, Duh."
Words to live by.
