Sounds cool to me.

I'm one of those vocal New 52/DC You haters, and so far I'm liking what Geoff Johns is saying about what Rebirth will be.

Johns is off Justice League! Wow I did not guess that.

me too. rebirth is the way to fix things.

looks like didio, harras and lee broke the toys and now ask to Johns fix it

[Tuxedo Elf]

This... actually sounds pretty good. Wow. Let's hope the execution is as good as the premise!

[Lightning Rider]

The way he breaks down GL Rebirth definitely sounds like they're going to incorporate a lot of sorely missed pre-52 elements. Sounds good to me.



This shot of the titans is an interesting inclusion.

Thank you, Geoff Johns, for doing this great interview and giving an older DC fan who has dropped down from buying around 20 DC comics each month to just Batman, JLA, and Titans Hunt, something to hope for. I look forward to the Rebirth issue in May but it sounds like DC has at least heard some of the older fans and that they would like to win some of them back to help boost their sales. Glad that he also admitted that he feels like there are some things missing from the current iteration of the DCU. Thanks again!

Yeah, it's really nice to hear that recognized.

[Nite-Wing]

seems like they want to fix some of the legacy characters in the DCU but its not gonna be so easy as a relaunch to fix all the problems created with the new 52.

[The Kid]

Yeah, I'm really liking what I hear. Looking forward to what titles they launch

Also, Johns is now off Justice League? This is huge. The guy is one of DC's only true superstars who can sell a book just by his name. Is he done with monthlies or is this just a temporary thing? I know he's heavilly involved in the DCTV and DCEU work but still

Alright, I like what I'm hearing, everything he's said sounds good to me.

The article seems to imply he has something coming up after Rebirth he can't talk about yet.
JSA? Titans?

[GlennSimpson]

Hopefully instead of writing one book he can provide input on many of them, while still doing his TV gig.

[Baggie_Saiyan]

All book back to $2.99? YES!!! Thank you DC, as a student on a shoe string budget makes me very happy!
