Superman Unchained looks awesome.
DC Comics April 2014 Solicitations
When will Red Robin get his own solo series DC And WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nightwing is getting cancelled WHY does DC keep cancelling great books like Animal Man and now Nightwing
Already afraid of what they'll do with Batman and Wonder Woman...
What actually give them some story elements together? Seriously, in New 52 it's almost like they are strangers to each other. It's a relationship that is really under developed in the current continuity.
Really look forward to Justice League.
Ostrander and Mandrake Spectre getting collected, that's cool. I'll checkout Batman: Eternal and Justice League United.
I'm heart broken that Superman Unchained is ending, but Aquaman and the others will fill that void perfectly.
@johnni_kun: I'm talking about the fight. The "Batman beats everyone" thing really bugs me... Hope they don't do it in this comic.
@anandak47: Oh okay. I can live with that.
@pyro_jack: Nothing. If there was a romance between them, you'd already start hearing about it in the news. This is just a small arc in Tomasai's "Batman and..." run.
@johnny_spam: I don't think that would have worked well with the reboot. I'm excited to see what happens next with him, I'm pretty sure he's not gonna be killed off.
Another origins. Didn't we already get origins like 3 times now. Other than that, I'm disappointed that Nightwing and Superman Unchained are ending, really enjoyed those.
How long is Zero Year supposed to be? And Batman/Wonder Woman, that sounds interesting. Didn't know this book was happening don't normally look at solicits. But I have been enjoying the Batman and.... books so I hope this is good.
Looking forward to Detective Comics. Love Manapaul and Buccelato.
@pyro_jack: Batman does beat everyone, except Wonder Woman. :)
I'm suuuuuper excited for the Batman and Wonder Woman! Always loved their relationship in the Justice League animated series! Detective looks pretty cool!
Also is DC really re-using that Zero Year cover AGAIN!???
@anandak47: oh thank Jesus, almost cried!
@icarusflies: I hope DC has a plan and will relaunch some of these characters in new titles and aren't just cancelling them due to low sales.
Things to buy in April: Everything.
Can't wait for these new titles and creative teams.
Only a few downsides: Venditti's writing is pretty poor imo, he pales in comparision to Geoff Johns' GL, so as him being the new writer of the Flash it isn't doing justice to me, and the solicit for SM/WW gets me a little mad 'find out how they survived a nuclear bomb', isn't that easy for Superman?
Strange how they took off Kyle Higgins for the final issue of Nightwing
@cantdance93: Well it is Vendetti and Van Jensen which is the team for Green Lantern Corps, so I imagine it will be more similar to that.
I was not expecting to think the coolest item on these solicits to be the Jae Lee Batman B/W statue. I'll definitely pick that up while I wait for Albequerque, Irving or Manapul B/W statue announcements (one can hope right?).
Other than that I'm most looking forward to the new Detective team. Lets get some good Batman as a Detective stories in. I absolutely love Snyder/Capullo's Batman but I think Francis and Brian will fill a niche that's been somewhat lacking in the n52 Batverse.
April is going to be awesome! Batman Eternal!! Aquaman and The Others looks cool. The new Justice League is going to be great. Sinestro gets his own book! Batman vs Bane is going to be epic. Justice League United looks like it will be awesome. So sad that Superman Unchained is ending though.
@madeinbangladesh: Man, I agree. I also think Snyder's run on Bat's has gone downhill since Court of the Owls, which I thought was pretty awesome, and I personally think he topped out during Black Mirror. I thought Death of the Family was just OK, too.
I think I've caught some kind of terrible disease because Catwoman actually looks interesting for the first time since the Dollhouse arc a year ago. If the cover is to be trusted then it looks like Golden Glider comes back in the Rogues Rebellion mini, which makes sense given Captain Cold's joining the Justice League. Does anyone know who that other girl is behind Glider? She looks familiar but I can't tell who it is.
@clawfist@jonny_anonymous: Completely agree. Prior to the soft-reboot, I loved Stormwatch but what they did to the title was awful. I'm glad Starlin got to finish his story, but I really hope we get a relaunched The Authority book (they have pretty much all the characters anyways). Hopefully the Future's End weekly is a backdoor launch for the title.
My buy list:
- Batman and Wonder Woman #30
- Catwoman #30 (Possibly)
- Constantine #13 (Possibly, I'm thinking about dropping it after FE: Blight)
- Earth 2 #22
- FBP: Federal Bureau of Physics #9
- Forever Evil Aftermath: Batman vs. Bane #1
- Justice League Dark #30
I'm completely dumbfounded that suicide squad is being canceled...and I thought nightwing was going to continue on but...wow...superman unchained too...ok, I get it, Forever Evil's making some changes to the DCU...I hope there's more titles coming then...Aquaman and the Others and the two weekly series. How about another "O" team like the Outsiders...give me something DC

I'm hoping that DC announces that Suicide Squad will become like..Secret Six and Nightwing will down a new identity. Cause both of those titles are too good just to end due to low sales. Seriously, the S. Squad has been one of my favorites.
So my subscription of nightwing goes until September what happens do I get to pick a comic to contitune the subscription on or do I get money back
Looks like Nightwing (Dick Grayson) is going to die, by the front of that cover unfortunately he's my favorite character, but despite that there are still other characters I love and if there is a chance that Dick will come back, even if I wanted to I couldn't give up on DC and yes its hard to see my favorite character die.
@madeinbangladesh: Man, I agree. I also think Snyder's run on Bat's has gone downhill since Court of the Owls, which I thought was pretty awesome, and I personally think he topped out during Black Mirror. I thought Death of the Family was just OK, too.
yep. I loved Court of Owls, and Death of the the Family was good IMO, but Zero year is just a chore to read for me. I have to force myself to read it. I am gonna drop Zero Year if this week's issue disappoints me again.
@sleepbutnodream15: Sorry, but I was referring to the conflict... Assuming it IS a fight, and knowing that Batman has a big chance of winning(mostly because of fans, PIS, authors, etc.) I'd at least want him to beat her in an acceptable way.

Well Things used to be like that, but that's New 52, who knows what might happen...
Can't wait to check out Batman: Eternal, Justice League United, and Luthor League. It looks like plans are coming together for a Damian resurrection, and the Batman/Batwoman arc is getting a conclusion as well, woohoo.
All I have to say now is good riddance Teen Titans, and I highly doubt this is the last we see of Dick Grayson.
I hope Stormwatch gets relaunched as as the Authority
God how I miss the Authority :(
Batman Eternal has gone from a book I was definitely going to get to a book I am going to be on the fence about. It all hinges on Nightwing for me, because if they kill Dick I will lose all interest. Two dead Robins in a year is ridiculous, especially considering this is supposed to be a fresh start for DC.
At this point the only non-Vertigo book I'm pulling or caring much about is Batgirl. Alex Garner continues to blow my mind with the covers.
@lyrafay: The Spectre trade caught my eye as well. Glad to see DC rerelease all these old stories.
@pyro_jack: In all seriousness and to be fair Wonder Woman kicks Batman's butt so hard in the new 52, even Batman has admitted his got nothing on her.
