Can't say I'm looking forward to this.
This is sad to hear, I actually liked the DCyou line of books.

So Flash and Green Arrow won't get relaunched because they have shows? I don't think that's fair. Don't get me wrong, I like Percy's Green Arrow and Flash by Jensen & Venditti, but they shouldn't receive special treatment.
And I wish the article was more specific. When they say everything, do they mean every book that they currently have out now or everything that they've done since 2011? Sorry I'm a little slow right now, didn't have my espresso yet.
I'm hoping for brand new titles as well, not just simple relaunches.

Good its about time they relaunched with #1s, they are taking a beating in sales for no reason. Putting titles back at #1 doesn't effect my enjoyment of them at all.
I would be annoyed about them making everything more like the movies, but that just seems like Rich speculation.
Current Pull: Lazarus, The Realm, Seven to Eternity, Aquaman, Flash, Justice League Dark, Justice League Odyssey, Sideways, Black Panther, Captain America, Daredevil, Death of the Inhumans.
Future Pull: Killmonger.
I think I'll stand back and just watch as everyone jumps off the cliff of speculation.
DC: Aquaman, Batman, Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman
Marvel: Ms. Marvel, Punisher, Daredevil
Image: Outcast, Bitch Planet, The Autumnlands, Black Magick, The Goddamned
Indies: Black, Insexts, Animosity, Alters, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Red Sonja
This doesn't bother me so much because at this point DC really needs to do something and I will undoubtedly find titles that I'll enjoy but if this turns into a constant relaunching with new #1s scenario as is the case with Marvel then I might be looking at dropping DC from my pull. Constant relaunches was one of the things that lead me to ultimately drop my Marvel titles and I would do the same with DC if they went that route.

If Marvel is finding success with the constant #1's, it would be stupid of DC not to do the same thing. Not that I like it - I was a teen when the first comics to reach #500 were published - but I totally understand it.

If there's something I'm looking forward about this though, is a bunch of new promising creative teams.
I especially need someone better in Green Arrow at this point.
well we could see it slowly happening but it looks like the big change will finally take place with this relaunch. everything will now be dictated by the tv and film properties. Deadshot will look like Will Smith, Batman may become more old and gruff, and Green Arrow is going to pine over some adorkable tech wiz.
