    Hi everyone...I'm new here :)

    Just a quick survey of opinions, which titles from the new 52 do you recommend.

    I've thus far been following:

    Batman (best so far)

    Green Lantern (loved the first arc)

    The Flash

    Action Comics (loving it)

    Justice League

    Detective Comics (Contemplating dropping it)

    Superman (Contemplating dropping it)

    Catwoman

    Batwoman is pretty good. Though to be honest I've dropped a few before they reached 5 and it was really after that they got better... I do recommend Batwoman as I stated before and maybe Birds of Prey...? Poison Ivy has had a new interesting angle thrown to her...

    Drop Justice League an Catwoman, I hear nothing but complaints, including on the podcast -- the button for it is at the top of the page, if you want to listen.

    @sinestro_GL: I'm actually thinking about dropping Detective Comics as well. Haven't enjoyed much during the series so far and reviews have agreed with me. Same goes for Catwoman. If you enjoy Green Lantern, all books right now are solid, except for the Red Lantern series.

    Batman, Aquaman, Flash, Wonder Woman, and JL are all doing good. I can't speak for Green Lantern, though, as I'm picking up the trade for that.

    Every time I see you post about Wally not being in the DCnU it makes me feeling all warm and fuzzy because I realize there are still good people in this world who keep up the good fight for people like Wally and Donna.

    @sinestro_GL: I would drop Detective and replace it with Batman and Robin. It is a much better quality comic.

    And it's ok to drop Superman. Nobody will blame you.

    Although, issue 7 ushers in a new writer, so dropping it may not be the best idea!
