Here's your new books bro

>>150780211
Which legion

>>150780200 (OP)
>they finally let Rucka do his Batwoman

>>150780200 (OP)
Somehow I forgot to mention Lobo.
He's coming too.

>>150780200 (OP)
I fear the possibility of deniz camp or another mid-to-bad author write deathstroke and make him into a liberal coward...

>>150780211
>Williamson Legion
>Prime Time Legion
hmmm

>>150780273
It just says the Legion is coming, we don't know much else besides that.

>>150780311
Slade is at his best when they let him be an actual evil irredeemable bastard.
He can't even love his family without being the worst person ever.

>>150780285
Teehee, panty flash.

>>150780329
Maybe absolute?
Although a mix and match of the other 4 legions with prime as it's Superboy going to different universes would be fun

>>150780381
precisely. that's why I fear the next author will try to make him a hero again or turn his book into political propaganda

>>150780285
Kind of sick of Rucka, but I do like DANI

>>150780273
I'm betting on Retroboot with some stuff from the others added.

>>150780438
As long as they make ayla straight again

>>150780458
Oh anon...

>>150780200 (OP)
GOTTA HAVE MY BATMAN

>>150780308
Loudly and often.

I’m coping hard that Shadow of the Bat is letting Watters continued Dark Patterns style stories in an ongoing. I know his name isn’t on the list

>>150780470
I hate that they made it woke and had her be with salu. Ayla is for timber wolves big knot

>>150780400

I do wonder if the first arc will be Prime and that team forming the team

>>150780200 (OP)
So many of these will be canceled in like the first 10 issues.

>>150780200 (OP)
oh boy! I cant wait to see more books with garbage art and homosexuality nonstop!

>>150780285
who the fuck is Dani?

You have weird tastes anon.

So why is Barbara arrested?

>>150780612
She is a Greek artist currently doing that Invisible Man mini she has done a bunch of Tec Backups and that Arkham Tower series as well

>>150780200 (OP)
>Shadow of the Bat
Might be written by Jeremy Adams? Tony Daniel has apparently fully finished a 3-part Batman story with him
That or it's a title with a rotating creative teams

>>150780200 (OP)
Was the last Zatanna series any good?

>>150780273
They one created by DC Superstar Bendis.

>Creators named are:
>Greg Rucka & Dani – Batwoman
>Deniz Camp
>Mariko Tamaki
>James Harren
>Skottie Young & Jorge Corona – Lobo
>Jeff Lemire
>Tony Fleecs
>Jamal Campbell
>Joshua Williamson

>And the books are:

>Firestorm
>Batman: Shadow the Bat
>Zatanna

>Barbara Gordon: Breakout

Connect creators to books

>>150781050
Somehow, I really doubt that.

>>150780200 (OP)
How many issues before the obligatory Batman appearance in Deathstroke? 3 issues? Less?

>>150781124
>Greg Rucka & Dani – Batwoman
>Skottie Young & Jorge Corona – Lobo
>Deniz Camp - Deathstroke the Terminator
>Mariko Tamaki + Jamal Campbell - Zatanna
>Joshua Williamson - Barbara Gordon: Breakout

>Jeff Lemire - Firestorm

>>150780211

so it will be the new Legion shown in the recent Superman arc, with Prime Time

>At the DC Comics panel at New York Comic Con today, they announced a bunch of new superhero comic books launching in March 2026 as part of the DC Next Level promotional programme. But also that Joshua Williamson would be bringing back The Legion Of Super-Heroes with their own new title. The Legion hasn't been seen much since their Brian Bendis run, and the version we've had from Joshua Williamson lately in Superman has been the Absolute Legion, working under Darkseid and totally corrupted.

>These won't be them… these are your proper Legion.

> At Wondercon this year, DC Comics Editor-In-Chief Marie Javins gave panel attendees the hint that the Legion Of Super-Heroes would be returning to the DC Comics Universe. With Mark Waid saying that, despite all the different versions of the team that have existed over the years, the one DC has chosen to use is one he's "confident everyone will embrace", no matter when they first got into the group. And we will get to see them "soon". Some thought that might be Mark Waid writing the new Legion twenty years after his previous run on the characters., But it seems not. But Joshua Williamson did call Mark Waid to get his blessing and/or permission, and got it before taking on this project, with Waid telling him that it was always going to be Williamson who would be doing this, one way or another.

Jamal Campbell did the last Zatanna mini solo but Tamaki also had that acclaimed Black Label book so I dunno

>>150780685
>vivid Miller influence
Damn. Based.

>>150781241
>one DC has chosen to use is one he's "confident everyone will embrace", no matter when they first got into the group. And we will get to see them "soon"
So it is the hodge podge legion made up of all of them?

>>150781246
Mostly due to the Art I'm not sure Tamaki doing another Daddy issue story would really work without the same artist

>>150781210
No, I'm saying that that is basically the only book out of these I'm interested in.

>>150781185
Hold on, why are there three Querls? Are we seriously rehashing Legion of Three Worlds right now?

>>150781209

>>150781260
That's just a nice way of saying they're not using the Bendis version lol
Knowing Williamson, he's gonna use their most iconic version.

>The announcement came amid a flurry of enthusiasm from Next Level architects Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson, who emphasized that this new line is built around creators’ passion projects. “We just said, what do you want to do?” Williamson said of recruiting talent. Snyder added that inspirations like Marvel’s Ultimate Universe and Energon Universe helped shape the idea: “These are their passion projects.”

https://aiptcomics.com/2025/10/11/dc-next-level-batwoman-nycc/

remind me: why am i supposed to hate this?

>>150781126
DC gonna win back Bendis's good grace and poach him from Marvel.

>>150781260
Honestly, I'd be okay with that. Like at this point, fuck it. Validate all of it, pick and choose the best elements from everything. I just want a good, preferably episodic, space opera book starring Superman's nerdy friends.

Oh, and do not sleep on the 90s Legionnaires. I'm so sick of people like Shikari and Candi getting the shaft.

>>150780200 (OP)
>Barbara Gordon: Breakout
Kind of weird they’re not using Batgirl or Oracle for the title. Hoping that she’ll get to suit-up, but I’m not going to hold my breath.

>>150781336
Man, you really need to read the last 2 Superman issues.
>Hold on, why are there three Querls?
Because one of them died, I think it was the Post-Zero Hour one.
>Are we seriously rehashing Legion of Three Worlds right now?
Four Worlds actually, they got the Bendis Legion involved.

>>150781124
Firestorm feels like something Camp would be on.

>>150781209
>>150781336
What would you do if there were 4?

>>150781336
It's all 4 legions. Or what's left of them. The absolute legion killed off most of the other 4 legions and these are the survivors.

>>150780200 (OP)
When was the last time Etrigan had a series? New 52?

>>150781342
>That's just a nice way of saying they're not using the Bendis version lol
Fucking good, that version, while admittedly having an interesting idea here and there(Monster Boy, X-Ray Girl, Danielle being the original Computo, bringing back New Earth, etc), it's soured by having terrible designs and a nothing "story".

Like, seriously, why is Salu a knockoff Storm? Genuinely what were they thinking?

>>150781462
To understand what someone as complex and enigmatic as Bendis is thinking, one must look into the abyss to find their answers.

>>150781411
>Man, you really need to read the last 2 Superman issues.

Also Superboy prime lead the survivors into battle at the end

How is writting the Legion. At this point I don't care the version just that is someone partially competent.

>>150781556
Williamson

>>150781509
Hey man, if you want context and want to see at least some of the Legion again, check it out.
It's is also clearly setting up their return

>>150781241
I hope it's the reboot. Johns ruined the "OG" for me, the threeboot was too depressing and the bendisboot was just garbage.

>>150781585
There's like 3 dead giant boys there

>>150781581
I only have read his bland Flash rebirth run, and at this point of the LOSH state I would take bland over terrible 10 of 10.

>>150781597
Reboot was shit
Full of quirky chungus reddit characters like the fat ugly snake

>>150781597
You know damn well it's not gonna be the reboot, and it sure as hell also won't be the threeboot, and it most definitely won't be the Bendisboot.
They're most definitely just gonna use the classic Legion since that's what DC has been doing lately, debooting everything back to their original forms.
Maybe you'll see some additions from the other Legions, like maybe a Retroboot version of Gold Lantern, but it's clear that the bones are gonna be the classic one so that they can keep Superman's history with them.

>>150781624
What about it?

>>150780308
>Skottie Young
Should I?

They'll use the Retroboot if only because their designs are actually appealing. The hell happened here?

>>150781907
They'll use Retroboot not just because of the designs, but because of their history, their impact, and the fact that they were the first ones.
>The hell happened here?
Bendis and Sook really wanted to make their Legion look diverse.
They just ended up looking bad.

Comic twitter and LOCG are currently saying DC's kicking Marvel's ass here

>>150780200 (OP)
But lets be real, how many of these are actual ongoings and how many of these will actually sell well to thrive?

>>150781881
He got better as a writer (but unfortunately that didn't translate to IHF's revival) however Lobo IS the kind of character who thrives off of mindless violence which Young adores even if the Corona collabs tend to be some of his more sincere writing

>>150781124
>At the DC Comics panel at New York Comic Con today, they announced a bunch of new superhero comic books launching in March 2026 as part of the DC Next Level promotional programme. And that included a new Batwoman series by Greg Rucka and Dani. But also the news that Greg Rucka would be writing the upcoming Zatanna series for DC Next Level as well. No artist named yet, but Jamal Campbell was listed, and he recently drew Zatanna for DC…

Remember how bendis made the ranzz's black he also made them poor and have like 10 siblings? What did he mean by that

>>150782020
Seriously. It would've been one thing to just make the twins black. But then there's that other shit, and it becomes a bit questionable.

More questionable is Dawny. Hm, how do we handle this character who has struggled with a stereotypical design? I know, let's make her look like even more of a racist caricature! The fuck.

DC is absolutely mogging Marvel in the comics department

>>150780311
Deathstroke is almost certainly Lemire. He posted this as the preview of his next DC book and he is a huge fan of New Teen Titans.

>>150782020

The crazy thing about that was the early promo stuff had white Lighting Lad and Bouncing Boy was black but then they switched them for some reason? I think DC even had to pulp some comics

>>150781966
>>150782178

>>150782316
She's a flying vaguely native american alien with big tits that's enough

>>150782186
oh, wait, you're right. I thought this was going to be absolute hawkman before reading absolute evil

>>150782204
Marvel fans have Stockholm syndrome, Marvel could smear shit on a page and call it Spider-Man or X-Men and they'd still buy it.

>>150782233
Yes, ignore the mouse shill.

Yes, but every regular Marvel book still sells better than most mainline DC books.

>>150781003
The Tamaki one? Great. Mostly because of the art.

The Campbell one? Horrible. Art and writing.

>>150781384
DC literally kicked him to the curb once his contract expired.

Nobody wanted him there because he was too expensive. He was only there at DC as an overpaid scab for Didio to wreck DC with 5G since none of the regular writers wanted anything to do with 5G except to run far away from DC.

>>150782744
Tell me the last time Wolvie was in the top 10 without a #1

>>150781342
They tried it with the Johnsboot and it sucked. It'll suck again because nobody but ancientfags has nostalgia for that version and Williamson is not even close to the writer than even an over the hill Levitz is. Threeboot killed the Legion completely.

>>150781411
>Because one of them died, I think it was the Post-Zero Hour one.
>Reboot Legion lost XS to the Johnsboot Legion and Kinetix was killed in Lo3W
>Reboot Brainiac is dead too
Why do they fucking hate the Reboot Legion so much?

>>150782740
Could be worse. Tom King is around.

>>150782194
Yeah Garth and Ayla were still white, and then all that got redrawn

>>150781973
Wonder if we'll see Bette get use again in the Batwoman book

>>150781762
It's a shame the cartoon didn't continue, they were going to have her and Jeckie be separate entities and it would've been fun to see how they would've interacted.

>>150781940
The Retroboot wasn't even the "real" Legion It was just an approximation of the pre-Crisis Legion with most the of the 5YL stuff wiped except for random shit like Ayla and Vi being a couple.

>>150782959
"Could be worse" doesn't make shit not taste like shit. There's not really anybody working for the Big Two that I would trust with a Legion book.

>>150782945
Kinetix was a survivor here and honestly most other Legionnaires are dead for the event anyways, they'll be revived when it's over.

>>150783173
>wasn't even the "real" Legion
Didn't say it was, just meant to say that that's the version of the Legion closest to their classic versions, which is what DC probably wants right now.

>>150781860
Why is Swamp Thing killing the children? Is he evil?

>>150783273
I'm cautiously optimistic

Hey, remember when Imra was supposed to be a major player in Doomsday Clock, but then she just kinda wasn't because Johns apparently forgot what the hell the point of this story was?

>>150783273
What about hickman

>>150783480
The point of that story was to bring back the JSA and the Legion of Super-Heroes, but then Bendis came along with his horrible new Legion and fucked it all up, so they had to change the story into the classic Legion being erased and replaced by the Bendis Legion, which resulted in that awkward spread of Superman with the classic JSA and the Bendis Legion next to him.

>>150780200 (OP)
I'd be interested in a Skottie Young DRAWN and written Zatanna or Demon, but that's about it. And I doubt that's what he's working on, he probably asked for and got the Batwank version so he could cross that garbage off his Bucket List.

Tamaki with a really good artist would be interesting on Zatanna but I suspect she will be on something I'll never read - a Lobo book that will feature a few panels of Crush, and mostly be set up for the Supergirl movie, or feature Kara in an adventure to suggest or indirectly promote the 2026 movie.

>>150782894
Ultimate Wolverine has been in the top 10 since it came out.

>>150783587
Young is on lobo thoughabit

>>150783570
I honestly think Bendis is out to destroy comics

>>150780725
First degree goonicide.

They're not gonna do it, but Shadow of the Bat should be the ongoing version of Dark Patterns

>>150782194
>>150783014
It's so lazy and arbitrary. Yes, the team that's supposed to be all about how diversity good should probably be a bit less pale. But they didn't even put any thought or effort into the race swaps. Nor did they make any of the black Legionnaires more prominent, like you'd think they would. Sure, Dani's there, but no Jenni? Or Jazmin? Couldn't even be arsed to bring in Andrew and make him actually black this time for a free W. Come on now.

>>150783490
I would rather have Bendisboot Legion.

>>150783815
It's like when Waid made Star Boy black but barely did anything interesting with him. Waste of a nice character design.

>>150783570
>The point of that story was to bring back the JSA and the Legion of Super-Heroes
I don't really understand why that needed a whole maxi-series. The Legion is from the future. Just have the Founders show up at Clark's house in a Time Sphere and say they need his help with a thing. ... Which, come to think of it, it exactly how Retroboot started! Just do that again, Geoff, nobody cares about how clever you think you are.

>>150783657
Well, one can't say that he hasn't left his mark, even if most of what he did has been reversed and/or retconned.

>>150781876
They did Middlewest after Skottie ended his original run on I Hate Fairyland, and IIRC people liked it, that was more of a serious story, but that is the exception to his writing style rather than the rule.

>>150783979
Because they wanted to make a Watchmen crossover and reheat Moore's garbage.

>>150783894
Threeboot Thom was pretty cool looking, yeah. Again, Bendis and Sook missed an absolute freebie. There was precedent here.

>>150784066
The problem with Threeboot was never the visuals. Kitson is a good artist and the characters all looked pretty cool. Even a very minor character like Theena stands out because she has a cool design that immediately grabs your attention.

Kitson's Shadow Lass is my favorite version of the character, fuck she was hot.

>>150783979
Because they didn't just want to bring back the Legion and JSA, but also crossover with Watchmen AND shit on the New 52.
Since Rebirth didn't bring the JSA or the Legion, they decided to put all those ideas together, and try to make a big deal out of it.
But they fucked it up.

Oh, another PoC Legionnaire in the incarnation that was ostensibly trying to be more diverse? Harmonia.

>>150784124
Highly respectable taste. The Underworld vampire aesthetic she's got going? Dig it. She was also the only one who was nice to Lydda.

>>150780200 (OP)
1993 ass lineup.

>>150784275
Don't forget Tim Drake is back as Robin in the main book.

>>150784307
Has he taken the dick out of his ass?

>>150784275
And that's based.

>>150783979
If something doesn't make sense, just say the Time Trapper did itt.

>>150784275
90s DC kicked ass.

>>150784025
>>150784138
Maybe they should get it into their thick skulls that nobody wants a Watchmen crossover. Just let it be standalone, for fucks sake.

>>150780200 (OP)
90s flavour
NICE.

>>150781003
Yes. It was pretty creative and fun.

>>150784487
I know Watchmen has all this prestige behind it but do potential new readers and casual audiences even know that? I think even the movie has pretty well fallen out of the public conscious.

>>150784361
The sad part is, you can't even ask which Time Trapper is responsible for this shit, because all of them would do that.

>>150784591
Doomsday trapper seems pretty good all things considered.

>>150784591
I'm still waiting for the inevitable story where all Time Trappers form a council or something.

>>150784696
Is time trapper more than one person?

>>150784718
maybe

>>150784718
Yes. The concept of the Trapper sort of exists outside of linear time, and thus who the Trapper is is constantly changing with the timeline because the future isn't set in stone.

>>150784718
Trapper was even implied to be a woman once or twice.

The Legion has a similar problem to Wonder Woman. Really cool rogues, but nobody uses them, and thus casuals assume they're lame. Damn shame that.

>>150784852
How does one become a time trapper

>>150785023
You gotta trap time.

>>150783826
Insincere retard.

>>150784696
I remember in Jeff Parker's Exiles, he basically just said that all the versions of the Timebroker were real because the Timebroker was basically an aspect of multiversal time or something to that effect so the Exiles changing the timeline of universes would inevitably affect the Timebroker which is why it was constantly being retconned. That'd probably be the best way to treat the Time Trapper as well.

Parker is like the one writer I would trust with the Legion.

>>150785038
Have you seen what the X-Men fans are like after Hickman? What's currently going on with Ultimate? At least people recognized Bendisboot as shit. I do not need Hickman's dick riders coming in and jacking each other off over how brilliant and amazing his Legion run is and how it's the greatest Legion run ever because it's so smart and deep and blah blah blah. I already did see someone on Reddit express disappointment because at this announcement by declaring that a Hickman Legion run would have been better than any other Legion run which is completely insane because Legion's strong point has always been the dynamics of the large cast and Hickman can't write interesting characters with good and compelling dynamics.

Fuck him and fuck his midwit fanboys. I would rather not deal with them.

>>150785262
That series was cancelled way too soon. So unfair.

>>150786076

>>150780273

>>150781907
Superman is back to being SuperBoy and I'm pretty sure its been "his" legion showing up as Darkseid's goons

>>150787042
It's not as clever as they think it may be but it at least was an effort. It's better than this DC KO shit.

>>150780200 (OP)
I want an Alan Grant Demon DC Digest collection

>>150786830
He actually is not. He's a Bendis tier writer with Morrison tier fanboys.

>>150780200 (OP)
Cool. I hope Lobo slaps.

>>150787187
Something is Killing The Swamp Thing is right there

>>150787339
Except the something in the title refers to whatever monster that Erika and her former group is fighting. Since we know it's swamp thing he replaced the something

>>150787382
Better an incursion of oscuratypes into the swamp and Erica has to help him. That's literally all she does anyway.

>>150781426
I have two holes and two hands

>>150781966
Well tbf they kinda are.

People still have nostalgia for Vertigo and don’t remember how the 2015 and 2018 attempts flopped, Absolute is expanding to 8 titles, they just announced books with a bunch of fan favorite characters and Firestorm instead of 10 books with Batman, and the main Batman title just got a fresh writer that people haven’t decided is shit yet.

Meanwhile marvel is “killing” their Ultimate universe after just two years, they announced an event that takes cues from Rivals, and they announced some Spider-man/symbiote event with like 10 writers.

Really if DC could just fix a lot of their big main universe heroes (King off WW, getting a non filler team off Flash, etc) they’d be in really good shape in terms to quality and diversity in content.

>>150787572
>they announced an event that takes cues from Rivals
It's honestly sad how creatively bankrupt Marvel comics is. Just replace everyone there with Netease employees already.

>>150787339
Swapping "Something" for "Swamp Thing" rolls off the tongue easier.

>>150784718
He can retcon his own origins

>>150783490
The Krakoa bullshit would work much better with the LoSH. The whole Moira thing felt like a pitch made up to explain the different iterations of the Legion.

>>150787572
>and Firestorm
I'll only read this if Gehenna is brought back and it's more in line with the Stuart Moore run at least in terms of using characters associated with the Firestorm legacy prominently. I just don't give a shit about Ronnie and I especially won't care if it's more "wow, Ronnie and Jason are opposites can they get along" shit like Brightest Day and the N52 series.

I think Firestorm suffers from the fact that the core concept really requires a writer who's both smart enough to understand science or at least reasonably present comic booky theoretical science in a way that isn't dumb but who's creative enough to make it kind of trippy. Something like a sciency version of Silver Age/Bronze Age Doctor Strange.

>>150788141
But why would Swamp Thing be killing the children?
Is he evil?

>>150788549
He probably won't be. Covers lie all the time. Quit being retarded.

>>150788257
It originally was a legion pitch except brainy was the Moira and would be revealed to have been behind all the legion boots

I don't believe the shit about Hickman's Legion being Krakoa with Brainy

They made this specifically for my tastes, sweet. All they’re missing is Swamp Thing

>Comic twitter and LOCG are currently saying DC's kicking Marvel's ass here
That's cause they are. Most of the creative teams and books they've unveiled so far are at least worthy of piquing interest/attention.

Meanwhile marvel just unveiled two shitty events that prove they're out of ideas, said the Ultimate universe is ending (after getting Absolutely MOGGED by the distinguished competition), and most of the teams they've unveiled are whatever.

>>150782233
Total market share is what matters, a few high performers can't make up for a low-selling line.

>>150789610
Marvel always wins baby.

>>150789444
Swamp thing is getting the Jesus arc made and also a crossover with something is killing the children

>>150781274
I liked those new characters she introduced but "Daddy Issues" story was a mistake

>Williamson confirmed on LOSH
>Rucka/Dani confirmed on Batwoman
>Young/Corona confirmed on Lobo
>Rucka confirmed he's not writing Zatanna

>Williamson has mentioned wanting to write Etrigan, though that would be stretching himself really thin considering he's on LOSH/Supes/Iron Man/GI Joe (but let's be real this is probably a mini)
>Campbell's Zatanna sold well and he's slow as hell so makes sense if he's writing another mini with her (this also applies to Tamaki tho)
>Tamaki is a woman so they're probably putting her on Babs or Zatanna
>Lemire posted a page of two veterans, one being blond, in an aircraft, so he's probably on Deathstroke considering the art doesn't fit JSA or Absolute Flash's art

>>150789414
The Legion is enough trippy and self contained to work better with them. Also the fact the Legion on its high day never run away of being horny.

>>150789981
>Lemire posted a page of two veterans, one being blond, in an aircraft
Art by Rafael De Latorre, who I liked on Animosity.

AF and JSA are mediocre at best but I feel like Deathstroke would be more Lemire's speed so fingers crossed.

>>150790118
Everything that Hickman is as a writer is antithetical to everything that makes the Legion enjoyable. He cannot do goofy soft sci-fi, everything is super serious. He cannot do dramatic, soap operatic character dynamics because his characters are merely robots that exist to move along his plots. Just like how he was an awful fit for the X-Men (Claremont 100% cribbed from Bronze Age Legion in style at least while Cockrum was on the book), he would be an equally terrible fit for the Legion.

>>150790167
Is that art supposed to be impressive? It looks like generic 2000s/2010s CoDslop. The characters look dull in their designs, expressions, etc. Everything that isn't a character is either a CG model (the plane) or a photo/Blender model with a filter over it. It's amazing how disgustingly bad comic art has gotten over the last 10-15 years.

>>150790209
No? Just saying the artist and one of their works considering he hasn't worked on anything higher than a C list book before. Don't know why you decided to chimp out like that.

>>150790177
Cope krakoa was the best x-men was had since Morrison and in fact was better than Morrison

>>150790177
It was leaked a while back that Hickman wanted to Avengers Disassemble the Legion beyond repair complete with giving Brainy the Scarlet Witch treatment, killing off the big three among others, and retconning all previous incarnations of Legion as mindraped fantasies No. El endured at Brainy's hand so no one could deboot or bring back the previous Legion.

At least Bendis did a clumsy and yet reversible reboot and used Drake and Dawny.

Williamson is also writing IronMan. So I can expect that both series to suffer for him trying to spread thin.

>>150789444
>All they’re missing is Swamp Thing
Good news, everyone.

I hope Williamson doesn't copy one of Bendis' many flaws and try to cram everyone in every issue. I think there's a good chance the first arc might be Prime and that crew (I think it was reboot Kinetix, Johns Dawny, Polar Boy, and Star Boy, a Brainiac or two and someone from Threeboot?) reestablishing the team.

Also doing Superboy (Prime) and the Legion is hilarious

>>150789981

Did Tamaki use Babs in any of her Batman stuff?

>>150791046
It's almost like Hickman is a hack.

I did like Hickman's Fantastic Four but I really don't get his Avengers hype. And the less said for X-men the better.

>>150780200 (OP)
Joeybros and Rosesisters how are we feeling

Williamson said in an AMA on LOCG a couple weeks ago that they had plans for Joey and Rose so it seems they will be in the new Deathstroke book

>>150791508
There was every brainiacs except reboot. Reboot died in the superman issue. We also had gold lantern from bendis

>>150791860
Is Rose still Hmong? And will they mention It every panel she appears in so we remember it?

>>150781377
Scott Synder and Joshua Williamson are gigantic hacks.

>>150792898
Name someone in comics nowadays who isn't a hack

>>150784307
What a fucking fall from grace, he used to mainline his own Robin run, and it was good.

>>150792898
Williamson is harmless

>>150792953
30 fucking years ago give it up

>>150781003
It's great, really recommend Zatanna 2025 for character work while Zatanna Bring Down the House for the art

>>150789730
Is the Black Label stuff even canon? Some of it is cozy like pic related. I’ll take whatever Swamp Thing scraps I can get I guess. Such is the life of Etrigan and Swamp Thing fans

>>150782204
And unfortunately that's all that matters. The Queen in Black #1 is going to sell more than all the Vertigo #1s combined

>>150794409
>>150782204
>Muh sales
Good fuck. I blame movie fags for all this retarded shit. Like any of the fucktards here get a dime from any of these higher sales yet it's the only ammo any of these miserable ass lickers can throw out. No assertion of quality just a constant reminder that lowest common denominator are paint drinkers.

>>150792898
Snyder is a hack. Williamson is just a middling C-level writer promoted to A-level because the talent pool in western comics is so shallow now.

>>150792938
Jed MacKay but even he's had his misses (his team books because he's been given the short end with rosters and having them dragged into crossover hell).

>>150794526
Moon knight is shit.

Right? Just pick a few to focus on for each issue.

>>150780200 (OP)
All suck

>>150780200 (OP)
Not interested

>>150780200 (OP)
I would read camp on deathstroke or the demon, and nothing else on this list

>>150781181
>>Greg Rucka & Dani – Batwoman
25 issues + 1 special
>>Skottie Young & Jorge Corona – Lobo
stealth mini (6 issues)
>>Deniz Camp - Deathstroke the Terminator
hard to predict
>>Mariko Tamaki + Jamal Campbell - Zatanna
cancelled after 6 issues
>>Joshua Williamson - Barbara Gordon: Breakout
stealth mini (6 issues)
>> Tony Fleecs + James Harren - The Demon
cancelled after 6 issues
>>Jeff Lemire - Firestorm
cancelled after 6 issues

>>150781416
i also think they would give him a batman comic though
