I ordered all #1. Once I read them all I will decide which ones I will follow. Though most probably JLA, JLI, Action Comics, Superman, Batman...
Q99
I'm waiting for feedback on most really.
JL Dark looks the most interesting. New Wonder Woman doesn't look too bad either (apparently it's going to have more of a horror-slant? That's pretty cool).
Cogito
Can't believe there's no JSA in the new 52. Its last run was awesome.
Prep-Man
apparently most of the titles are fun/good reads. their are a handful which arent too good. im guessing suicide squad, mr terrific, and hawk.
Cogito
Yeah I'm thinking Mr. Terrific can't carry a solo title. I liked him in the Johns JSA run though, so I might give him a chance.
Prep-Man

I kinda disagree, though. I think any character can carry a title (at least most good ones), you just need a good creative team. And Wallace has left me cold most of the time. His Titans wasn't very good. Final Crisis Inc was probably his best thing, but that was just OK.

To some, WW is the best book in the 52.
As for this week, Action, Swamp Thing, and Animal Man blew people out of the water. Not too surprising. I knew they would be good.
JakeTheBank
Action Comics
Superman
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps
Green Lantern: The New Guardians

Static Shock
Stormwatch
Suicide Squad
Teen Titans
These titles are the one's I'm interested in and the rest on OP list might be skimmed through real quick.
Cogito
Got a chance to read a bunch of the #1s that came out today. I'd have to say I really liked Action Comics, Detective Comics, Stormwatch, and Swamp Thing (which has moved into my definitely list).
Batgirl...I'm probably going to drop. I preferred Barbara as Oracle. I'll give it a few issues though.
JLI was not all that impressive. If I follow it, it'd only be because of Guy.
O.M.A.C. I'll give a shot. I was neither overly impressed nor disinterested by it.

Read Animal Man, and wasn't all that impressed. Story was decent I guess, but the art was so amateur it was almost embarrassing.
Prep-Man
Seriously? Ah. well. I thought the art was excellent. Especially in the dream sequences.
Prep-Man
Cogito, did you give Batwing a try? Great art, IMO.

The dream sequences were pretty good. The rest...I've seen people do similar work with MSPaint.

So far i've read Action, JLI, Detective, Batgirl and Hawk and Dove. All decent, some better than others.
Cogito
If I had to rank the issues I've read so far, it'd probably go:
Detective Comics
Action Comics
Stormwatch
Swamp Thing
OMAC
JLI
JLA
Batgirl
Hawk & Dove
Not going to rank Animal Man, as I felt the story was good but I just didn't care. Haven't gotten my hands on Batwing or Green Arrow yet.
Bentley
Personally I thought OMAC was awfully boring.
Right now three issues left me underwhelmed (OMAC, both JLs) and two felt fine (Stormwatch, Action).
Looking foward to the New Guardians.
Cogito
Ok, I think I finished reading all the #1s that are out now.
Green Arrow was ok...I don't read much GA, but I don't think I care for some of the changes they've made.
Static Shock was bad. Definitely not following.

Alright, you got me. I only skimmed through Men of War, because I wasn't all that interested.
Gave it a second chance...it's pretty good as a story. Got potential. Art's good. Not sure if I'll follow at all though.
Prep-Man
I just want to see how they take out Circe next issue.
BlackZero30x
RED HOOD AND THE OUTLAWS!!!!!!
Red Lantern
The Flash
and more then likely
Aquaman!

Might Pick Up
Aquaman
Batgirl
Birds of Prey
*These may not last long
If I were you, I'd definately pick up Batgirl by Gail Simone. I've read almost everything Gail has written and has yet to let me down. I've collected Secret Six (all), Villains United, Birds of Prey, Wonder Woman, Superman, Justice League and Dr. Fate (one shot).. She's never left bad taste in my mouth, like other authors hehe... I'd also recommend Aquaman. How can you go wrong with Ivan Reiss and Geoff Johns. And last but not list, Birds of Prey has Dinah, that's more than enough for me.
On another note, you should drop Batman. It'll probably be the worst read haha..

I'm doing to read both of these, especially Shadowpact because I recently started reading about them. I read DoV a couple of years ago, but it wasn't until a couple of weeks I decided to get their trades. So far, i'm done with the first one sooo I'm going to pick up the others. If I were you, I'd definately pick up JLD, because of Zatanna and Enchantress (she's my new favorite mage)... As for Diana, it looks sick!!

They're going to come back next year, at least that's what Didio said. The company is currently working on the new creative team. I hope Robinson, isn't part of the new team. As for the members, hopefully they'll bring back Dr. Fate, Pee Gee, Sentinel, Atom Smasher, Stargirl, Lighting and Citizen Steel. They're the only one's I actually care about hehe..
aztec
I want to pick up the following soo badly, especially the one's in bold. But I might have to wait until they come out on trade. I prefer reading the story as a whole, because in general they don't feel choppy. Also, I'd rather read the story as a whole because I hate waiting for the single issues. In most cases, the single issues require a lot of care and storage. Trades are easier to take care of and make room for.

Galan007
Geeze, I guess my anticipation of I, Vampire really is in the minority.
Cogito
Twilight and the rest did a number of Vampire popularity
Galan007
Yeah, if I would have seen those films I likely wouldn't be as in to this relaunch as I am.
Luckily for me, I'm untainted by Twilight.

Firestorm out yet?

Really looking forward to Wonder Woman and GLC. To a lesser extent, Batman, Nightwing, and Supergirl.

Nope. That's in the last week of September, along with Aquaman, Flash, New Guardians and a few others.
JakeTheBank
Hopefully the schedule remains the same as far as when books will be released monthly. Easier on the wallet, and the interest level is spread out so there's something to look forward each week.

i doubt i'd mind that.
Just read Batwoman. While I can see that it's a well written, brilliantly illustrated book, the character just does nothing for me, sadly. It's like one of those things you want to like, but no matter how much you force yourself, it just isn't happening.
Disappear
i don't know if this is technically spoilers or not, so i'm going to put it in tags, and you can read at your own risk. it does pertain to the new issues, and the question is aimed at others who've read a decent handful.
has anyone else noticed the hooded/cloaked figure that appears in one panel in each #1? i think it's meant to be the same hooded woman from the end of flashpoint, who explained to barry that she was protecting the timelines or something, but i'm not entirely sure. anybody have any insights?

That's actually been discussed at length
Still no confirmation though, as far as i know.

this is what happens when i stop coming by for a year or two. i end up looking like a noob again.
Omega Vision
has anyone read Deathstroke?
Galan007
^ I enjoyed it.
It had a couple quirks, but overall it was a solid book, imo.

Deathstroke was a solid start. One of the things that annoyed me with the book is everyone repeating that Slade was BAD ASS! Other than that, I give it a B+.
Omega Vision
Originally posted by Galan007

I read the interviews and a brief review online, from the sounds of it its not something I can enjoy if I'm expecting a three dimensional, nuanced Slade (like the classic Wolfman Slade) but might be a decent action romp.
I'll pick it up and thumb through it some time.
Maybe.
I'm just a little turned off by Slade apparently being defined solely by his 'badassery'
Also the fact that apparently he doesn't meet or fight any important superheroes/villains is bullshit.
Q99
Demon Knights is good.
Cogito
Been super busy of late, but I got a chance to read all the new issues this week except RM and Mr. Terrific (so far, at least).
Brief first impressions:
Batman & Robin: Bad. Not interested
Batwoman: Good, will follow up on
Deathstroke: Good. Trying a bit too hard to force his character, don't like how they made his costume armor
Demon Knights: Little tough to follow along, but seems solid. Definitely got promise and will continue
Frankie: Pretty good. Will follow a while, but probably drop.
Green Lantern: Great
Grifter: First issue was meh, but will follow a bit
Legion Lost: See Batman & Robin
Red Lanterns: Good. Will follow
Suicide Squad: Neutral on the first issue
Superboy: Good story. Since he's a character who's already been defined by his development and maturation, I'm not really thrilled to be starting over.
Bentley
No news about an Adam Strange book?
Cogito
Now that all the 52 are out, and I've gotten a chance to read them all, these are the books I'm interested enough to read the #2s:

Q99
JL Dark was cool. "We need a mystics team because Cyborg, Superman, and Wonder Woman almost got killed by a wall of teeth. Also, all our recruits are broken or messed up in some manner. Have fun!" -Madame Xanadu, paraphrased.
-Pr-
Given what I've read so far, the books I'll be definitely sticking with are:
Action Comics
Aquaman (For me the best of the new 52; everything I'd hoped for and more. Now, if only DC didn't keep stealing my ideas)
Batgirl
Batman
Batman: The Dark Knight
Catwoman
Detective Comics
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps
Green Lantern New Guardians
Justice League
Nightwing
Red Lanterns
Superman
Wonder Woman
The books that I may drop if issue #2 doesn't grab me (though I'm hoping some will):
Batman and Robin
Justice League International
Red Hood & The Outlaws (I love Jason Todd, but this book is only lasting on that and Kenneth Rockafort for me. May drop very soon)
Superboy
Supergirl
The Flash
Voodoo
Before the reboot, i regularly read maybe 6-8 comics. DC has definitely won me over, when initially i thought this was the worst idea ever.
