    So for those of you who haven't read Justice League #10 there are spoilers below-

    No one knows who superman is??? (cept fr batman and cyborg) its sort of weird that even after 5 yrs the members of the justice league have not shared most facets of their secret identities with each other,to me, in the pre-52 universe that was one aspect which cld make for good story tellin,fr example,an intimate story like identity crisis could not have taken place in this universe,n that was one hell of a story!! anyway....in one panel green lantern(isnt he supposed to be with sinestro???) finds out batman knows things abt supes tht the other dont n bats mentions tht Supes n him work together outside of the team...thts wat got me thinkin is there a possibility fr a new superman/batman series,a possibility fr me to go completely broke....what do u guys think??

    You mean besides the fact there is already to many Batman books out? Another reason is I just don't want them teaming up to be a common place thing. It becomes over used and watery. 
     
    There are lot's of books they could do.  I'm thinking about making a thread with some ideas for books.

    The right way? Letting Grant write both AC and Superman.

    There are some things I like and some I don't in AC. One thing I don't like is DC basically setting up the writer to fail on the Superman book.

    @Dernman: They should have just let Grant finish the ''past stories'', then start the Superman title.

    Uhm, the only title not doing fantastic in Superman family is Superman. Action, Superboy and Supergirl have been getting average to great reviews.

    Superman is also getting a creative change, and all their titles are much higher than before, so DC is fine right now.

    @SandMan_: That probably wont happen ever, because other than the Death of Superman, DC has never stop Action Comics and Superman. Ever. So long as DC and Superman breathes they'll be publishing both titles monthly, rain or shine.

    But I disagree that you cant write good stories without knowing any backstory at all. I still partially blame Perez for his sub par writing.

    I get your point. I'm just saying, yes, even though nobody knows whats going on in Action and how Grant is going to reimagine Supes, a good story can still be written in the present.

    @sethysquare: My favorites of the four Superbooks are Action, and Supergirl. Supergirl, though, needs to slow down a bit, and get a supporting cast. Just my opinion, though.

    Like Silver Banshee and her brother?

    The only thing I thought was pretty sad is that Lana Lang is no longer a supporting character in Supergirl.

    @SandMan_: I had problems with the 90's like I had problems with 80s, and the 00s, I certainly hope they forget Silver Age. 
    I missed All Star comic but I saw the movie. I liked the movie but I don't want Superman to be that. There are elements I would like to take from 90s as well as other ages. 
     
    You can update things without throwing everything away. Problem is when you let what you are keeping strangling you.

    @SandMan_: Dude, fuck the superman book. Be happy that we at least have one good superman book which we didnt have before the reboot.

    Action is the most important title and as long as that would do good i am happy.

    People like action comics? must be smallville lovers who don't like the idea of Superman being as powerful as he should. I personally like Superman comics action comics I don't as it doesn't feel like Superman.
