Still wonder why The Movement and Green Team is in the Edge when they appear to lack the deadly edge of the rest of the books and only features teens...move to Young Justice.

Loving All Star Western interested to see where the apparent time travel thing goes. Might have to try the green team, I was only going to go for the movement but green team seems interesting and as someone else said don't see why they're in the edge group.

REALLY enjoying Threshold. Hope its able to stick around. The "renegade" Green Lantern Jediah Caul is becoming one of my favorite characters.

Can't WAIT to see who Gail's taking off the bench for The Movement.

Hoping it's Scandal.

Crud.

When Green Team and The Movement were first announced I had a mild interest but decided I wouldn't get them to save money.

Then the interviews with the creative teams came in, increasing interest in the series. Still thought I could avoid them.

With the info for issue 2 for them though I now see a clear idea of where they're going; now I have to get them.

Curse you DC; at this rate, I'll end up owning The New 52 in a matter of months. More titles are coming in that I want then comics I have being cancelled.

I have to say im quite surprised at how good the green team and the movement look like

Having actual covers instead of posters (and an actual synopsis too) has greatly benefited them

@Rixec: You could always trade wait for some stuff. You tend to get more bang for your buck that way. Only downsides are that A. you don't get to read them as they come out and B. avoiding spoilers is not always easy

As much as I'd like to see Scandal I don't think she'd fit in this book very well.  However based off that cover it appears that we may be seeing the return of Secret Six alumni Tremor from the Reptile Brain story.

She's also said that she's bringing somebody off the bench. Pretty sure there's another post somewhere where she indicates that it's a female.

I think something big coming up with All star Western.Hex is in 21st century.You can imagine there would be certain repercussion about this incident.Also at the same time trinity war will take the central stage in DCU.May be...may be...Hex will something have to do with it..

Well I can't wait to pick up that issue of Western (series, in my opinion, has been one of the best since the beginning and is a must read for everyone), and if i remember reading something correctly (not sostice, stoped beliving what that said during night of owls) he teams up with Adam Strange? Threshold looks good, but then again only 2 issues have come out so far (and the backdoor issue 0 that was GL:NG Annual 1) but ill keep on picking it up :)

I'm only picking up stormwatch in trade (as there are so many series, and so little money to go around), but i hope that this issue fixes what RL did to the main man lobo during his run on deathstroke. Other than that Green Team and the Movement seem pretty good, but I'm probably going to be picking them up in trade though (money again).

So far, the movement teens reminds me of Milestone and Blood Syndicate. One female has wings, there is an asian female, there is an african american female. Current dc architects always dictate more minority characters as revealed in the podcasts of James Robinson. Kendra Saunders was supposed to be african american from suggestions from above but James seems to have made her half african american and half hispanic. For the green team teens, I prefer that they have sinister plans for the planet like the rich guy Ozymandias and the rich guy Lex Luthor. I think Misfit and Black Alice could make interesting members for Movement.
