    Default The ten best DC series of the moment, according to these guys

    http://multiversitycomics.com/column...oks-right-now/

    It's actually a pretty good list. Of course I have quibbles but mainly I'd probably move WW to #1 - it's currently at #2. What do you fine people think?

    (Note: I'm not affiliated with this site. They write good, issue-by-issue East of West analyses so that's why I go there).

    Red Lanterns, New Guardians and Green Lantern should definitely be there over Green Lantern Corps (despite that I also like it).

    Also, Parker's Aquaman is a no, no.

    Other than those, the list is pretty on-point.

    Not too sure about Future's End on that list.

    Futures End seems a little too early in to already putting it in amongst the best. Same with Justice League United. The former has impressed me more than the latter though, so I'd easily switch it with SM/WW. Not to say JLU is bad, I just don't see what's been so spectacular about it this far.

    But as big a fan I am of Azz's Wonder Woman, I agree putting Pak's Action above it. There is literally zero wrong with this book, every aspect of it excels, while one could make a case of pacing being a bit of a detriment to the WW run.

    Well, this is one man's opinion so...yeah, I don't agree with it...

    (1) Batman/Superman probably shouldn't be in the top 25, much less Top 10
    (2) Red Lanterns is a superior book to GLC (and I like GLC).
    (3) In no way, shape or form should you rate the two issues of Detective we've seen over Snyder/Capullo's Batman.
    (4) Green Arrow and WW should be ahead of Action. I know I'll draw fire for this, but I think Pak is the most overrated writer at DC (If the majority of books he writes are mediocre, what are the chances this is going to stay great?).
    (5) Swamp Thing should have been on the list
    (6) Sm/WW should have been on the list

    My Top 10 would be:
    (1) Green Arrow
    (2) Wonder Woman
    (3) Swamp Thing
    (4) Batman
    (5) Superman/WW
    (6) Action
    (7) Red Lanterns
    (8) Justice League
    (9) GL: New Guardians
    (10) Future's End (Toss up between this and Eternal)

    Mostly agree, aside from Batman/Superman... But then again, the only thing I read of that was the crossover with World's finest, which was awful. Maybe it's better when left to it's own devices. Don't read Aquaman anymore, or any of the GL books, so nothing to say on that front. And yeah, probably a bit early to be putting Futures end or Justice League United on it, though I have enjoyed both. Each has problems, but most books do, and I think they will grow out of them. Then again, maybe they won't. but that list is pretty good overall.

    I pretty much agree with the list too.

    A couple of things I'd probably change, but he's pretty much spot on.

    Swamp Thing needs to be on there. Maybe not superheroy enough for those guys?
    If you are not reading Lazarus, you should be.

    I'm not reading enough DC to judge all of these (though I know enough to know GLC is out of left field), but really glad to see B/S get some recognition. It's no Action Comics, but it's a dependably fun and solid title nonetheless (soon to be joined by World's Finest, which I just might pick up after the shake-up).
    Buh-bye

    I'm only reading two of those titles, so the list is a fail when it comes to my preferences.
    (Then again, I don't even buy ten DC titles on a regular basis anymore.)

    With the exceptions of Aquaman and Justice League United, I'm not reading any of the books on their list. While I don't think the rest of the books are all bad or poorly created titles, the list comes off more as DC's most trendiest books.
    Currently(or soon to be) Reading: Alan Scott: Green Lantern, Batman/Superman: World's Finest, Fire & Ice: Welcome to Smallville, Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Jay Garrick: The Flash, Justice Society of America, Power Girl, Superman, Shazam, Titans, Wesley Dodds: Sandman, Wonder Woman, & World's Finest: Teen Titans.

    my top 10 right now in the New 52 would be (as I look at my list in the Rank Your Pull List thread...)

    1. Action Comics
    2. Justice League (and it may grab #1 really quickly if #30 is any indication)
    3. Batman/ Superman
    4. Earth 2
    5. Aquaman
    6. Flash
    7. Superman/ Wonder Woman
    8. Batman
    9. Superman Unchained
    10. Detective

    Green Lantern Corps ranked #11
    Justice League United ranked #12
    I'm not reading Future's End or Green Arrow
    and Wonder Woman comes in at #21 out of 26 comics

    look for Superman to go from near the bottom to Top 10 as soon as Johns' first issue gets published
    I am NOT comics.
