DC Comics Reboot

I've only read a few of them, but must say I was very pleasantly surprised by the Deadman story in DC Universe Presents. I didn't know much about the character and wasn't expecting a lot, but was very impressed with the maturity of the story and characterization, and the ending definitely left me wanting to know what happens next.
 


How tastes vary! I thought Teen Titans #1 was atrocious (but not as bad as Red Hood & The Outlaws).
To each their own. ;)

I went back for Superman #1 today and also picked up All-Star Western, Green Lantern, Green Lantern: New Guardians, and Red Lanterns.
 

My favorite books:

- Action Comics
- All-Star Western
- Batman
- Aquaman
- Wonder Woman
- Nightwing
- Green Lantern Corps
- Birds of Prey
- DC Comics Present

This is bad. If this creates a sales bonanza, and it looks like it did, whenever sales are in a slump, time for another reboot! :erm:

I, for one, didn't check out much stuff I normally wouldn't. Green Lantern, plus Corps and New Guardians, because that was really the only DC stuff I was reading in the first place (no Red Lanterns though, it doesn't interest me, not sure how they can sustain a comic line with those guys). JLA, to check it out. JLI and Firestorm for nostaligia's sake, I used to like them as a kid.
