It actually has me less excited for the two books I planned to pick up - Animal Man and Batman. However, based on the art in this preview book, I am going to pick up Aquaman.
I can't believe how many books Batman is going to be in.
Aquaman does look good.
I'm a DC fan, so I'll probably bite and pick up the 52 package from DCBS, and then from there I'll figure out what to cut out though. I'm trying to cut back on the amount of books I buy each month as it is, but I'm intrigued by the "reboot that's not a reboot".
It's going to be interesting to see what happens.DarqueArcher wrote:This is the exactly opposite what DC is trying to do. They are hoping this is a jumping on point for new younger readers. But I fear what they gain in new readers will not offset what they will lose in old readers. Just my opinion.leonmallett wrote:I still remain undecided as to whether or not I will pick up some of these book, or whether I will use this as a DC jumping off point.
There are 7 or 8 titles that interest me, yet DC has made such of a convoluted mess in recent years for me (event into event into event; multiple retcon story-lines; multiple origin story-lines for the same characters,; and repeat all of the above), that I find myself really wavering in my commitment to DC as a publisher.
As a young 'un they were my preferred publisher, but today I barely recognise DC as being a line of books that grab me, and that goes back to on door and one person as far as I can tell.
