DCU gets remade - all books are #1s, Geoff Johns and Jim Lee on Justice League, more

The new 52 is about the beginning of the Superheroes, right? So the JSA isn't needed because they are older and would have come before the new Age.
But I don't think they will completly forget them. To many iconic and cool characters, it would be a shame if they cease to exist...
My guess is, they will introduce the parallel Earth Multiverse once again and the JSA will be the Superhero Team of the parallel Earth, with Alan, Jay, Ted and everyone else.
It was a cool concept in the PC days and it might still work, they have to limit the Parallel Earths though, like in 52.

hey pr,

are u interested in any of the smaller books? the big super hero titles seem cool, but what im mainly into are the smaller characters like franky, swamp thing, grifter, voodoo, etc...

yes. ive stated many times there will be a jsa book. as well as a captain marvel or captain thunder book. next year i suspect.

Nightwing will be a definite buy for me. The Red Hood book might be something I'm in to too. Hate what they seem to be doing with Harley so no suicide squad for me. Still eager to find out what they're doing with people like Red Tornado, Geo-Force and the female Doctor Light.

Not a huge fan of most of the wildstorm stuff (don't hate it either, just a little indifferent), so dunno if i'll be really bothered (unless a creator i like ends up there). swamp thing and frankenstein don't really pique my interest, though voodoo is a maybe.

Batgirl I'm really looking forward to. Savage Hawkman I could go for. JLA Dark maybe. I wanted to read Hawk and Dove, but Liefield really puts me off sometimes. Catwoman is almost a certainty. JLI too maybe.

not really. im put off with dans omac and rob leifeld on hawk and dove. im burnt out on green lantern, so im not looking forward to those titles, for the exception of new guardians. though, im not too thrilled on the lineup.

i think the new guardian line up will be all right early one, but hopefully as the series progresses they will add more firepower

they are already called the most powerful team in the universe, but no agent orange? i can live without artictous, but no larfleeze is dissapointing. maybe they will add him later?

if the purple lantern turns out to be fatality instead of carol, i will be happy. crosses fingers.

What?

No Larfleeze?

Bull. Shit.

The bit where Larfleeze heard about Santa was pure motherf***in' genius.

His comic relief is indispensable. I do understand that he's a painfully difficult character to write, and they'd have to keep coming up with legit reasons for him to work with the other lanterns.

Still, I hope he makes at least spot appearances.

Yeah, he is kinda hard to write. Plus he is too powerful. He makes the other teammates seem like nothing.

For all you Static fans, here is a sneak preview, with some new preview.

One thing that does make me happy is....

HARDWARE!! 🙂

Sounds like a porn name.

Hmm, I liked the Shadow Cabinet (especially Icon). I hope they will be an part of this new Universe.

testy? you guys keep poking fun at me because im into the relaunch and that i post pics. im just stating my views on things. whether you agree or not, i could care less. im not even going to argue anymore. there will always be people against and for something.

The comment was directed at both sides. But you can't deny that there have been some rose-tinted glasses on your part amidst some legitimate gripes. But your comment that I responsed to with the testy remark started with "I'm not the one who..." Nearly any comment beginning with those words is a bit defensive and catty. It's what my sister and I devolve into when fighting. I just want to keep things civil.

I think most of the comments directed at the pics have been positive. Everyone likes seeing the art, whether or not we think its good.

See, this is a human being talking. Like I said, it probably wasn't your intention, but you were being perceived as loving everything. Perception is 90% of internet communications due to how easy it is to misinterpret. Just show that you're being properly critical in certain areas and it won't seem like you're glossing over faults.

...

Anyway, the JSA ending was crap. Fanboys would be laying siege to Didio's house if they did, say, Superman like they did

Spoiler:
Alan there at the end. I kind of hope he's done though. Not because I want him to stay dead, but whatever gets brought back will likely seem foreign enough to be awkward.

Superman's been treated like shit for the last two/three years.

Have I not provided reasoning for my gripes? If you're not complaining simply for the sake of complaining, is it wrong to do so? This is clearly too harsh an assessment. This is where we come to talk comics, good and bad. If I happen to have a lot more bad to say than good about something, it makes it no less valid, and not "whiny" in the derogatory sense you're using it here.

I'm angry at DC's direction, and want to talk about it. There should be no reason why I can't do that without being called names that KMC doesn't allow without special characters.

I didn't see any reason why he wasn't just blanketing everything in excitement. The particular payroll comment may have been too far, but if a person was universally excited about every aspect of something this large, it's clear that they aren't really being discerning.

As it is, I didn't think that was the case with Prep-Man, and it wasn't. His last post was an acknowledgment that, ok, there's some not-as-good with the good. Obviously he's got a much brighter outlook on the changes as a whole, I was just fishing for evidence of some critical observation, not simply blind acceptance.

Other people routinely get called out for their lopsided love/hate of a particular company, because it denotes a bias that slants their opinions. It can happen with individual characters too (thus, "fanboys"😉. I sometimes take issue with the way in which they're called out, but acknowledging it and pointing it out as a source of bias is part of debate and shouldn't be ignored.
