    This could be really good or really bad,one could argue that this looks like it was made for the tumblr fan fic crowd. I'll give it a shot but the crest of this school looks as if it was completely ripped off from the Potter books.

    Thoughts?

    It was made for the Tumblr fan-fic crowd. Seriously, the entire premise just reads like one of the DC executives went on FanFiction.net and read one of the myriad of the embarrassingly bad "Chrissy/Katie/Jessica/Generic Teenage Girl #581 is nervous on her first day in the infamous Gotham City Academy. With new friends, new dangers, and possibly new loves, courtesy of the mysterious hunk Dick Grayson/Jason Todd/Tim Drake/Aged-Up Damian Wayne, surviving school will be anything but easy." stories written by teenage girls with a grasp of English grammar that makes me weep for the public schooling system.

    I don't see it lasting. Or being anything other than a trainwreck.

    On second thought scratch what I said, I thought this would be a mix of Scooby doo/Gotham murder mystery type of series, I don't need ghosts haunting bathrooms and hallways, hell,I didn't even like that Ghost Chick from harry potter to be all around honest.

    I know it's somewhat different in atmosphere, but if it can't tie into Gothams lore then all I have to say is meh. Either ways, I'll give it a shot but I'm not expecting to be surprised.

    I honestly have no idea what to expect from this,but for now it seems more Potter and less Scooby,it's a fairly smart move I guess,Potter has a HUGE fanbase.

    Yeah, marketing wise they are probably doing something smart, but I'd wish they would actually do something interesting rather than having a Harry potter chamber of gotham bullsh*t.

    Comics exist to pander these days I guess,look at female Thor for instance.
