Clark probably had the best and worst reboot of all of them. He benefits from an awesome writer in Action Comics but lost his parents, his wife , his son and his dog. Aquaman had a great reboot , any time you get a writer like Geoff Johns workin on you, you are a lucky character.
IMO neither Animal Man nor Aquaman have gotten better (although they are good) since the reboot. Both characters have always been awesome it's just now with the advertisement the New 52 is getting people are actually taking notice rather than just ignoring everything that doesn't have a Bat, Super, or Justice in the title.

Being able to start over again and read about a character from the beginning is very enticing. I don't have to learn about Aquamans many hands nor do I have to learn about the exact origins of Buddy at this current moment in time. People are buying these books because they have good writers and they are doing a good job. Very hard to prove a bandwagon effect with people having to PAY to read these books most of the time.
@Decoy Elite: yeah, I was joking when I named those two
I just have heard a lot of people complaining about Babs not being the same strong character she was while in the wheel chair. Personally I don't see much of a problem with her character change, but then that is just me...
I'm going to say Batgirl and Starfire just to let the fur fly :P
Isn't Starfire a complete whore now?
No this was just people judging one scan in one comic, shes not very whoreish at all
I would like to say to the court and the jury that I myself have not used the term "Whore" or "whoreish". I just named a character to see what would happen :)
Vandel Savage: his enjoying himself for eating a dinosaur bbq. As he lives a long life it good to see him have other things to do. Demon Knights is one of the best things that came from it.
I feel for love for Swamp thing and Catwoman. I feel that Red Hood could be better as well as Arsenal. Wish Booster Gold was better but I'm sure he'll gain some spotlight again and go up on my favorites chart.
@BlackArmor: Actually it was bound to happen to connect with Batman Beyond it is a shame that two Batgirls afterward would have been forgotten. It would be something if Cassandra to live as a citizen. you know what would be fun if she helped with Alfread in taking care of the place.

So this is the exchange, eh.....Cassandra Cain, Oracle and Steph Brown (I guess, don't really care about her) so we can get Terry Mcginnis?......not worth the trade
@BlackArmor: the trade was not bad. Barbra getting back to Batgirl can work. However their delivery was a lot to be desired. You know maybe she should be Bat Lady. We talk about changing girl to woman in hero names maybe this is a good one to start. Let another person take the role as oracle. That will be a challenge of could take that mantle.
@Hazlenaut: Eh, I have to see who would take the Oracle mantle before really absolving DC of any wrongdoing here, also I would like to see Barbara doing something a little more unique then just being another cape in Gotham
Animal Man & Swamp Thing are definitely back into proper place...especially Swamp thing please, please keep Geoff Johns as far away as possible from dude. Wonder Woman is now readable again, hell, I think anything would've been better than JMS' run.
Eyup I can't think on a better example but I have to say they have get deeply into Damian, you know showing he like something else than just a lil' jerk

I could not disagree more. It doesn't help that I absolutely hate Cassandra.
What is funny is that most characters mentioned here, like Aquaman, Animal Man, were not actually rebooted. And by funny, I mean sad because it just goes to show how unnecessary the reboot and five-year BS were. A simple relaunch would have done the trick just as well (arguably even better because DC would not have lost old readers and their pre-Flashpoint HC/TPBs would actually continue to sell).
