As far as best superhero costume goes it's hard to beat a Lantern's costume. Since the costume is basically a construct, you get to change it to fit the occasion. Wedding later today? Ring: I need a tuxedo. Going to the gym? Ring: How about some running shorts and a t-shirt?

Some of my favourite titles pre-52 became those "meh, I'll read that one later" titles but the opposite is also true. Action Comics is painful to get through at times and while I hadn't been a huge Batman fan in the last couple of years most of the Bat-books are incredibly entertaining. I'm glad DC decided to cancel some of the titles to bring new ones in though instead of just stock piling new titles until it gets out of proportion again. 52 titles at once is a good number (I have 28 on my pull list) so that there's something for everybody.

I still have no interest in Green Arrow though, nothing they can do about that.

Luthor did the same thing with his Android Lois! The DCU is filled with perverted geniuses.

I'm not gonna say anything bad about the reboot (outside of criticizing some of the costumes) until I get more information. So little is known about the new stories, and what's gonna considered cannon from the current stories that I wouldn't feel comfortable criticizing DC quite yet. I have faith that they wouldn't screw over customers who have been with them for years just the possibility to grab new readers. If you attract a big chunk of younger readers but lose older ones in the process, that's a bad business decision. They have to face the fact that the older customers are the ones that can afford the books, the conventions, the movies, the collectibles... not that 14 year old who buys 2-3 books a month (no offence to any younglings here :) !) 
 
Maybe creating an Ultimate universe would've been a better idea... I'm not sure yet. We'll see later this summer when we get more news. All I can say for now is that I'm personally excited for this and can't wait to get more info!

Hello! 
 
I've been looking around for an efficient way to sell some of my trades and hardcovers (I need the room!) but it seems like I'm out of luck. eBay looks like a terrible way of doing it (mostly because it would be, more often than not, individual books and the shipping cost is just as much / more than the actual book), craigslist is incredibly sketchy unless you deal locally (and in my case that means "forget it") and none of the good comic books online communities have marketplaces/buy&sell forums. My local shop won't buy trades either, heck I doubt they'd buy anything from customers.  
 
So, has anyone sold trades online before? I got a huge pile of recent-ish stuff I'm trying to get rid of!

What else did Ethan Van Sciver write? I loved his art in the Rebirths but I don't remember seeing him credited as a writer before...

Will this be available at one point? Do cancelled pilots tend to show up somewhere? I'd be interested in seeing this...

I heard it had something to do with legal issues? The Siegel/Schuster families are holding the rights to Lois and are trying to get more money out of a deal or something so DC decided to forget about it and pair Supes with WW... but that might only be internet rumours since I've seen no official source from that (but I think nobody at DC would actually come out and announce this...)
