    30 My Greatest Adventure
    Really? What's supposed to be in that?


    After all they went through to bring Adventure Comics back it'd be a shame to see it tossed to the curb again...Although part of it's charm for me is the legacy numbering so the point may be moot....

    Besides the GL books, they seem to be missing books covering the rest of the DC space-heroes...And aren't there supposed to be some horror books? I'm sure Swamp Thing will be one of those at some point...

      I've heard that some of the Wildstorm stuff is going into the DCU proper so Authority? A Grifter solo title was brought up.
      Swamp Thing for sure.
      Legion of Super-Heroes (confirmed as Legion Lost)

      Probablys:

      JSA (a solid selling book- maybe revived as All-Star Comics again?)
      Atom (he's an iconic name)
      Jonah Hex (a solid title I believe)
      Sgt. Rock (he's been awol too long & they mentioned war genre)
      Zatanna (in fishnets still, I hope!)
      Power Girl (with the talk about recostuming the characters, I can't see why they would change her outfit- it's 99.9% of the reason she exists!)
      Blue Beetle (he's everywhere anyway, like him or not)
      Plastic Man (wasn't Ethan Van Sciver talking about this)
      Frankenstein (Morrison likes him)
      Lobo


      Maybes:

      THUNDER Agents?
      Metal Men (a Didio favorite)
      Superboy (a fan favorite)
      Booster Gold (be a good place to explain any changes)
      Brave & the Bold
      Adventure Comics (maybe the LSH or Superboy will go back in here?)
      Challengers of the Unknown (been gone awhile, would be great to see them back!)
      Blackhawk (again, gone awhile)

          I'd like to see:

          Spectre book with Jim Corriagn as Spectre
          Gotham PD with Montoya and Allen as detectives
          Question with Vic as the Question — get whoever wrote the JLU episodes to do the title
          Martian Manhunter

            As long as there's a Shazam title, then maybe I give this venture a chance. They can always just have another event in 2012 and reverse course...
            I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

            If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

              Rather than try and list all 52 titles...I'll just list what I'd like to see.

              2 Batman titles-Batman & Detective(with Bruce as Batman of course)
              Batgirl-Barbra Gordon as Batgirl(healed because of the time she was infected by Brainiac)
              Batman Inc.- GONE!!
              Nightwing-Dick grayson
              Red Robin-Tim Drake
              Damein- GONE!
              Green Lantern-Hal Jordan of course(no changes to the current continuity)
              Aquaman-GREAT art team & Writer
              JLA-the original line up
              Batwoman-no changes, just get the title going again
              The Flash- Barry Allen, with Wally west and the rest of the Flash family
              Booster Gold- GET RID OF HIM! I HATE that character!
              Wonder woman- Show her as the true Amazonian warrior that she is!

                Booster Gold is easily misread can be hard to take seriously. I think a Jurgens Blue and Gold book reuniting him with Beetle would be a fun read. I'd be down for that.

                  I tried to support it becasue it's a genre that doesn't get much play but I dropped it after the 3 issue....

                    Booster has been a really great character since they gave him a purpose of time travelling continuity cop post-"52". He's really evolved past the "Bwah-ha-ha" clown he became thanks to Giffen/DeMatteis/Maguire. And his relationship with his father (unbeknownst to him) Rip Hunter adds another wrinkle to his story.

                      22 BatWoman

                      24 Teen Titans
                      Batwoman has been confirmed as the previous JH Williams series hasn't it?

                      Titans confirmed with Scott Lobdell?

                      11 DC Universe Presents/w Deadman
                      I thought it was Adventure Comics?

                      I'd say Swamp Thing was a given.

                      They also emphasized other genres. Jonah Hex would be a Western candidate to continue. War... Sgt Rock would be our best bet, although i'd love to see Garth Ennis back on Enemy Ace (doubtful since he seems to be doing most of this war stuff via his creator owned Dynamite stuff).

                        I thought Rip Hunter was his son? His father was the guy who got him to throw the athletic career away wasn't he?

                        Did they reveal Black Beetle yet?

                          Yeah ... If you don't read these Series or Generation Lost I suppose.

                          I better get a Boostergold Book with Jurgens and a Secret Six Book ..., Thats about all I have to add.

                            He is ... But Booster doesn't know this.

                              Batman Inc and Batman and Robin.
                              I bet Booster and the crappy newer Blue Beetle get a title, either solo or a team book.
                              Doom Patrol
                              Possibly Metal Men
                              Showcase? DC seems to be reviving the anthology titles.
                              Swamp Thing they went to all that trouble ot bring him and Constantine back to the DCU.
                              Plastic Man might be a good bet, too.
                              A surprise Superman related title like Lois Lane or Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen, I could see Olsen being written by Morrison and tap into the Fourth World Olsen connection.
