    I am going to read Batman, Detective Comics, All-Star Batman and Trinity. I wanted Tynion IV to write the main Batman book, but I definitely don't mind him writing Detective Comics.

    Batman

    Nightwing

    Batgirl and BOP,I'll give them both a shot but I only see reading BOP in the longer run compared to Batgirl

    All-Star Batman,but the moment Joker shows up I'm bailing fast

    Detective will get a few issues from me before I decide, if Tynion resorts to Tynionisms and Harper wank I'll never touch any Batbook he writes ever again

    Pass on Batman Beyond and Red Hood(lol Bizarro hahaha)

    Excited for Detective Comics (never thought I'd say that), Nightwing (yay, more Dick Grayson goodness from Seely), Batman Beyond (Terry's back, **** YEAH!) and Batgirl.

    I really like most of the books of the Batfamily, Detective and Nightwings might be highlights for me. I will see Batman by Tom King if it's good.

    Detective comics now reminds of me of Batman in the early 2000s (one of my favorite stages of Batman). It's cool to see those characters back.

    All Star Batman - I've been wanting Romita Jr on Batman for a while.

    Detective Comics! with Batman, Cassandra Cain, Tim Drake, and Stephanie Brown, as a team!? wow!

    The good old days are back!

    Finally! some goodness since Flashpoint!

    Batwoman is the wild-card of the team for me, but i couldn't be more excited.

    Tynion IV is a great choice to write this book, as he hes the guy that better understands all of this characters.

    It looks like Harper won't even be appart of the team...i guess that she, cullen, and Duke, will be all featured on Scott Snyders "All-star-Batman"...as for Red Hood, lol, as a bat-fan i appreciate DC be trying with Jason, but he already failled twice and now they will "rebirth him" and put Lobdell on it? seriously? are they really trying with Jason? or its just a excuse to give Lobdell something to do, so he can keep the job?

    I'm excited to finally see Terry return in Batman Beyond, though I do hope it's set in a new alternate future and not the one Future's End Tim Drake currently is in.

    Hmm Detective might be good, but I was hoping for more solo Batman detective stories.

    Lolz, but Snyder has to use joker some way. Also no Supersons for you Entropy, I think Damian and Jonathan would be awesome.

    In this moment Batman and Nightwing.

    Give a chance to Batgirl, BOP, and All-Star Batman.

    Completely pass about Detective, Batman Beyond, and Red Hood.

    Glad to see that Batman Beyond is getting back on track with Terry's return. I'm all for trying new things, but there's doing something that could realistically work and something that's too far of a stretch to expect people to swallow and replacing Terry with Future Tim was the latter.

    Interested to see what happens over in Detective Comics, specifically with Tim and Cassandra. Both are characters that could use some real focus and development, Tim especially seeing as he's been off track since the reboot.

    Still boggles my mind that they're keeping Lobdell on Outlaws. And now they're placing Bizarro on the team? LMFAO seems like they might've just given up and don't even care anymore.

    Glad to see that Snyder's done with Batman and interested to see what the new run holds. I do wonder what All Star Batman will feature though. Won't be surprised if it's Harper and/or Duke teaming up with Bruce, because Snyder loves his pets after all.

    Lol, at the people hoping for Tom King on the main Batman title, so they could see less Duke and more Damian...as it turns out, Duke is on the cover and Damian isn't.

    Not that i'm a fan of Duke, i actually like Damian way more...its just that people criticized Snyder for this, and it seems like King will do the same.

    In this rebirth, Damian has get the short strew.

    More horrible seems to me him in the teen titans with Dick's team.

    Curious to see how they will use Cassandra Cain. Really hyped about this rebirth, and I can't wait to see this "new" Batman, more powerful and tougher then ever (Snyder words).

    Reading 'Tective, most of my favourites are in there, plus Clayface, who deserves the attention.

    Probably will give Titans a skip, especially if Damian has aspirations of leadership. Starfire should lead them...have they changed Raven to a redhead? Hopefully they start 'ship-teasing her and Gar again since they're practically an item on TT GO!

    Great that Terry's back, but not so keen on Jurgens writing the book...we need the younger guys on a younger Batman...not to sound like an ageist or anything, 'cause I like Jurgens.
