Sadly enough, most of my favourite titles from DC are not being renewed for the reboot. Secret Six, Batgirl (as in Steph Batgirl), Red Robin are all gone, and Birds of Prey not only got a bad ending (the last two issues are effectively a random stand alone story not written by Simone) but once it reboots will inevitably suffer from the lack of Oracle...

Rumor has it that Secret Six will be coming through on the second wave of books.
I'm actually looking forward to BOP, because Duane is a solid writer on these types of books. Cable, Iron Fist, and Black Widow are solid reads.
Sucks for Red Robin. I'm picking up the trades and it's easily in my top 5.
Action Comics 9 just got a 9.5 from IGN. AC is better than anything Marvel has to offer. In fact outside of Daredevil and X-force all of Marvel's comics are mediocre at best. Even AvX is failing big time, and Wolverine as usual has some of the most horrendous, intelligence insulting works in fiction period.
Yeah the Forever Arc was pretty sick, Marvel just needs to keep their quality consistent instead of having a year's worth of crap and cheap cash in's and having an good story arc here or there.
DC has had some stinkers also but their quality is far more consistent than Marvel's.
But of course since Marvel generally appeals to stupid people, the majority of their fans have no problem getting ripped off for stories that have little to offeer besides flashy colors and explosions

lmfao what title is sex?
It's a series published by Image, written by Joe Casey. It's about a Batman-type character retiring, and how he adapts to the world now that he's not saving it any longer.
