Hmmm... Don't see a ring on Green Lantern's hand.

What we need to keep in mind is that comics are a niche market. 75 thousand issues of a title sold a month will net you the top book in most months when a major character doesn't have a new number 1... and that isn't all that much. I hate to say it but we don't matter, more people buy vinyl records than buy comics. This is for the millions of people with I-Pads who might have an interest in reading Batman or Superman stories, but have no clue where to start. This is a fresh start. Plus with a month of 52 new #1 titles for all there main characters DC is going to destroy the sales charts.

I just hope origins of Hawkman aren't a convoluted mess this time around.

It was still a major shift.

The X-Books (for the most part) always had their own little universe anyways.

I'm still hoping this is a gimmick and DC will use this "new start" as a way to incorporate a new universe, ala Ultimates.

If Batman is younger, then no Dick Grayson as Batman. Robin or Nightwing, then. Me like.

A lot of that stuff has me interested. JLA, Dark, and new GL team with all the emotional spectrum. Sounds cool.

Sadly, if OMD serves as an example, a continuity reboot may actually lead to better stories. The truth is, many writers are lousy poor handling continuity and they're fixed in a certain portrayal of the characters -Geoff and Morrison both strike me as Silver Age fans-, which actually matters when they write. So... Maybe good news?

I guess all the people who ship WW/Superman will be happy as they're supposed to be "together" or some shit.
