Its more that these characters have been around for so long, nearly a century at this point, that its pretty crazy that many of them have never gotten another book again.
Like Jay Garrick has been a character since 1940, so the fact this is his 2nd title in all that time is honestly astonishing
His ultimatum is bridging the JSA and Legion, he added in the idea that the New52 happened because the JSA didn't inspire Clark to become Superboy (correct me if I'm wrong if that was already canon with the JSA inspirijng Clark as Superboy, minus the New52). So it does make sense, his filling up an already cluttered bunch of characters to make the JSA important to the overall grand scheme of things. Will that work out? Who knows. We gotta wait to see where this New Golden Age is heading.

DAMMIT DC! Every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in!
I cannot wait to get my hands on this book.

The first arc is a new origin for Huntress. From issue 6 onwards there'll probably be much more focus on other characters (6 and 7 will probably focus most on Courtney and Jay because of the Lost Children).

What I see is the reintroduction of a Helena Wayne Huntress. That's a step towards bringing back something closer to a traditional Bronze Age (All-Star Comics revival era) JSA. I get it and I like the intent. The time jumping is a technique to show how the revived JSA fits into whatever DC continuity is this week. That being said, the presentation is lacking in a book which is going to be on many old time fans pull lists and those fans have a much better idea of what they like in their comics.

If I am super, how can I wait?
