Tbh Pak is kinda a wildcard for me currently, he's had some fairly mediocre stuff, but then at the same time planet hulk, testament and the red skull prequel comics were awesome.
So it could be either way. That being said, more history to the Nu52 is something I appreciate, as that's what I loved about the post crisis 00's stuff, it always felt like this vast historical
universe.

So, its confirmed that Man Of Steel would debut in June alongside Batman/Superman.

Man, now I have to read a LOSH? That's lame.
Why? Because of the Giant? It was a DEAD Giant and we don't know why. Probably because of the Fatal Five.
Looks like Giffen is going to make Larfleeze into his own cosmic book. With his own supporting cast and a lot of big, new villains. Me likey.

So nobody read Aquaman? Pretty solid issue, with Johns keeping things interesting going in to the next arc. He's done a good job crafting a story where some of the Atlanteans aren't really happy with Aquaman, and at the same time the surfacers are the same.
I wasn't too big on the new artist that's been doing the book since Reis left, but when he drew this, I was convinced that he's good for the book:

I actually like the artist a lot. Not as good as Reis, of course, but very solid.
DC adds another female title in the mix. This time it's
Spoiler:
Pandora
Pandora, the enigmatic character created by Geoff Johns that is the essential creator of the DC New 52 Universe (merging the DCU, Wildstorm and Vertigo universes/'timelines' at the end of 2011’s Flashpoint) and who appeared as an observer in every issue of the debut New 52 titles, isn’t fading from the DC spotlight any time soon.Saturday afternoon at the Emerald City Comicon, DC announced she’ll star in her own June-debuting ongoing series Trinity of Sin: Pandora, written by Ray Fawkes (Constantine, Justice League Dark) and illustrated by Daniel Sampere.
One third of the Trinity of Sin (the others being The Phantom Stranger and The Question), she merged the three ‘timelines’ (which she implies used to be one) in order to strengthen it to better combat an impending evil invading force. In later appearances The Phantom Stranger suggests by merging the timelines she’s instead cursed them rather than strengthening them.
DC has made it clear she and the mysterious box she’s been searching for will play a major role in this year’s Trinity War, the first major New 52 event, and it’s likely this new solo ongoing series will closely tie into that event.
Trinity of Sin: Pandora is the so-far fourth new ongoing series scheduled to debut from DC in June, along with Keith Giffen, J.M. DeMatteis and Scott Kolins’ Larfleeze, Greg Pak and Jae Lee’s Batman/Superman, and Scott Snyder and Jim Lee’s yet-to-be-titled Superman series.
I wonder what evil is so great that they needed Vertigo, WS, and the mainstream DCU? 😕
