I heard a very convoluted theory that the relaunch takes place right after Crisis On Infinite Earths. I think each comic might take place in a different Earth. They might even have a logo with the number of the Earth on the cover.

 Well done. Seriously, Wonder Girl...powerhouse thief? Super-kick-me-sign-boy?  I'm sorry, but Booster Gold better fix this god-damned timeline sometime in 2012. The teasers for many of these reboots sound mightily stupid.

George Perez will be writing and drawing SUPERMAN, with Grant Morrison and Rag Morales taking ACTION. Might be worth a download, I guess...

Excited for the two Superman titles (Perez had a great run in Action Comics in the late 80's), but Supergirl’s got the unpredictable behavior of a teenager, the same powers as Superman and none of his affection for the people of Earth. Writers Michael Green and Mike Johnson (Smallville, That's as far as I got.

Also, notice that Superman has three different costumes in these covers (Action, Superman, JLA) and Superboy has two (Teen Titans, Superboy). I think that's confirmation that the books will take place in different Earths (though of course a lot of them could share the same Earth).

Got to freely and honestly admit something here. The Superman titles sound kind of possibly like something I might actually go buy. That's probably about it. But, I also have to admit that while I'm pretty indifferent to this whole thing so far (mainly because I don't think it will stick) I am kind of excited for the franchise-wide sweep I've been wanting for about a decade. If they're serious...and they don't punk everyone out after a year...they might be making a few good moves here. The outfits aren't getting me excited yet. Except maybe Perez's Superman. I think. We'll see.

Morrison writing a Superman book with Rags Morales art, tempting.
Winnick writing Catwoman. Welcome to AIDS, Slam Bradley, Jr.

I for one am glad that there's no Shazam book here, because let's face it Captain Marvel is a pretty sucky character. I hope he dies.

I'm glad, too, because that clears the road for someone who appreciates and enjoys the original Fawcett characters to buy them out from under Major Didiot's ass.

BATWING #1
Written by JUDD WINICK
Art and cover by BEN OLIVER
Africa, a land of beauty – and of great horror. A land of creation and conflict. It is in desperate need of a defender, and from the ranks of Batman Incorporated comes a soldier to carry on the legacy of The Dark Knight in the most tumultuous region on Earth. Meet Batwing, the Batman of Africa!
.........what? They can't be serious. "Batwing"? "BatWING??" And this must take place on Earth-Suck, because it references Batman, Inc. RESURRECTION MAN #1
Written by DAN ABNETT and ANDY LANNING
Art by FERNANDO DAGNINO
Cover by IVAN REIS and JOE PRADO
It’s the return of Mitch Shelly – and he’s still dead.
Resurrection Man can’t stay dead for long, though – and with each rebirth comes new and unexpected powers. But his many returns have not gone unnoticed, and forces are gathering to learn what’s so special about him – and to see which of them will finally stop Resurrection Man dead. Nice! Abnett and Lanning getting to bring Mitch Shelly back. Could be interesting.

As a matter of fact, there is... I'm glad, too, because that clears the road for someone who appreciates and enjoys the original Fawcett characters to buy them out from under Major Didiot's ass. And not only does she have her opening offer ready ($78.12 cash, a carton of Newport Lights, and a cat piss-soaked - but laundered! - comforter), but she has enough slash fanfic to make a pretty good sized run, provided the artist can make a deadline.

Plus, I'm reading where Perez is writing it, but only doing the covers and breakdowns for the interior. So, I'm cautious again. However, Morrison and Rags...  ...this has real possibility...

He did the same thing last time in Action Comics (with Kerry Gammill doing finishes) and it was pretty great. Besides I think Jesus Merino is pretty good (those JMS Brave & Bold issues may have been crap ((no idea)) but they looked amazing). But yeah, sadly Perez lasted like one year on the title I think... and that was with Roger Stern co-writing.

Perez will invariably cite "health reasons" and be gone in like 6 months.I'm guessing the only reason DC asked Perez to do Superman at all was to give the older fans something akin to a "comfort blanket"...........and John Byrne said "No."

The new Superman costume (the Lee one, not the Rags' version) grates on me. He's invulnerable and they've got him wearing armor?

 Amazing how adding lines makes it a new costume.
