Thoughts:
- It looks like they're going to resolve the status of this new Clark Kent and what his deal is...and potentially provide an in for restoring Superman's secret identity.
- I wonder if Snyder is going to deal at all with what Tomasi did with Two-Face? Eh, probably not. I'm guessing the "greatest ally" who gets turned against Batman is Duke?
- It looks like Arthur and Mera are going to go on the run from both the US and Atlantis after Arthur is framed for instigating an attack against the surface. Aquaman vs. Superman should be cool. I wonder how Tula and Garth will react to this, and if Garth will follow his mentor?
- It looks like the cracks in Gotham's new "Dynamic Duo" are already showing in Gotham Girl.
- "The Night of the Monster Men" sounds like a fun crossover.
- Cyborg is going to fight "every robotic threat to the DC Universe?" Who could that include? The Metal Men's Rogues Gallery? Mr. Atom? Grid (who's already gone)? Braniac?
- That Detective Comics cover does imply that something bad happens to Steph or she does something she feels terrible about and the rest of the group don't know how to react to it...which killing someone (accidental or otherwise), would probably result in. Poor Steph .
- Looking forward to Flash vs. Godspeed. Surprised that it looks like Williamson is already going back on the multiple Speedsters element of his run given Barry has to take their powers to beat Godspeed. Not that it sounds like it's going to be easy.
- So it seems we'll be getting some heavy-Emiko focus in September. First she practically gets an issue to herself, then we get an issue dealing with her relationship with Oliver as he tries to train her as his new partner. Sounds like good stuff.
- Simon bringing Jessica over for dinner with his family sounds hilarious (and kinda romantic maybe?). Also, kinda surprised they're dedicating a whole issue to deal with Simon using a gun. Feels like it would just take a few pages/panels...
- Looks like we've got a Hal vs. Sinestro showdown coming up, even if right now Hal is in dire straits at the beginning. And why the heck is the Corps. rushing to get Guy of all people?
- It looks like Hellblazer will be dealing with the Constantine/Swamp Thing plot.
- So the Court of Owls have their own Goliath? Nowhere near as cute though...
- Isn't this the second time Marv Wolfman has done a Raven mini-series where he's taken her to high school?
- I'm assuming issue #3 of Red Hood and the Outlaws will deal with Bizarro joining.
- Can't wait for Supergirl .
- Looks like Jon is finally getting his costume.
- So it looks like Diana's arrival on Man's World leads to her getting arrested and thrown in jail. Should be a great first impression. Can't beat the smile on that cover though .
I wonder if they're finally going to draw a connection between Blue Beetle and Silver Scarab...
And looks like Dr. Fate #16 will be the last issue.
And Earth-2 sounds like it could possibly be leading into something Rebirth-y.
As for what I'll be getting:
Titans #3
Doom Patrol #1
Maybe-
Teen Titans Rebirth #1
Future Quest #5
Eventually gotten in digital trade-
Batman '66 Meets Steed and Mrs. Peel
Wonder Woman '77

"There's magic in the sound of analog audio." - CNET.
Lots to look forward to in September. Though sad Super-Sons got pushed back, guess i'll have to wait till October to read it.

And as for Trade Releases I'll be looking forward to picking up

There's a Time For Peace, and Then There's a Time To Punch Nazi Scumbags in the Face!!
Wow, I really dislike that "Supergirl" cover art.
Yeah, we were also expecting news on JLA too, right? I wonder if Super Sons and JLA all that's getting pushed back to wave 2 of Rebirth?
Last I checked we didn't even have a concrete creative team for either aside from the artist for Super Sons....
It'll be interesting to see if there is any connection between this new Clark and the New 52 Superman.
Nightwing #4 and #5
Green Arrow #6 and #7
Red Hood and the Outlaws #2
Titans #3
"We live in a world of cowards. We live in a world full of small minds who are afraid. We are ruled by those who refuse to risk anything of their own. Who guard their over bloated paucities of power with money. With false reasoning. With measured hesitance. With prideful, recalcitrant inaction. With hateful invective. With weapons. F@#K these selfish fools and their prevailing world order." Tony Stark

I wish the maybe column could be in the definitely column but... I am spending crap tons of money on DC comics now! I have to pick and choose
This is doubly funny because during the DCYou era, I only bought 1 DC comic regularly. What a difference a year makes.
EDIT: Holy cow! That's 75 dollars in Comics... Thank god DC is charging 3 bucks rather than 4!!!!
Picking up that Doom Patrol. BumbleBee popping up in Titans draws me to that. Considering picking up Deathstroke since Priest is writing it.
No doubt they have ordered artists to hide Supermans "trunk" area.
