Everything else seems pausible (except for Abnett leaving titans since he's essentially following what was established in DC Rebirth #1) so if this turns out to be true go fuck yourself with a cactus

Jurgens is overstaying his welcome. I'd like to see what Gail can do in action.

Even with *months* of lead time, he hasn't been able to draw a full issue. And the commonly accepted rumor is that he's leaving the book after the first arc is over.

Simone said on twitter she was working on a title for DC and gave the word Cat as a hint which could be Catwoman, Catman or Cat Grant.

I mean, Simone has her own problems, but being a feminazi isn't one of them.
>>
>>86517586
Nah, she is a SJW but I wouldn't put her on the Feminazi level especially since she tends to piss off Feminazis exactly because she won't agree with them and triggers them.

The while Savant and Creote fake dead that she pulled in Birds of Prey angered scans-daily and even triggered a tranny who argued with Simone and caused s-d mods to ban Simone over the tranny's hurt feelings.

OP's wrong. It's not Gail Simone on Action Comics.
It's Mark Waid. At NYCC, Bob Harras will announce his retirement; word got to Waid and he's been in a few talks.

Dang. That's some pretty nice art.

Gail Simone taking over Action sounds plausible, since Jurgens was not announced to be in the Superman panel at NYCC.

Elsa Charretier is confirmed Wasp at Marvel so that one is definitely bullshit.

Steve Orlando is doing Supergirl and JLA (already confirmed). Can the guy do three titles?

Gleason on Super Sons is very possible since he's co-writing Superman and already wrote Damian alone in his own series.

If Humphries on JSA is true DC just destroyed my hype.

She's getting better. It's always nice to witness an artist's artistic evolution.

Lex actually has an interesting narrative going on now.

Forever Evil leads to Lex League leads to Lex-MAN

He's the hero of the story.

They need to dial the Manta usage way the fuck back. Manta vs Arthur only works because they legit hate each other. But hatred needs to be fed so we're gonna need another spark to light the flames of war.

While Manta is cool, and I have grown to love him as a character, I feel like just defaulting back to him is the same as when they pit Flash against a speedster, I'd much rather see some other less known villains get a little exposure.

People thinking that Lobdell would be good for the Gen13 book forget that he fucked the Gen13 characters with The New 52 reboot.

His Caitlin Fairchild was a scientist working for Men from NOWHERE, as a spy, and she took care of Superboy. His Grunge was just some generic bad meta hired to torture Superboy. Most of the characters associated with Gen13 worked as elite soldiers for Harvest, that awful as fuck villain, and the organization.

If he worked on the new comic he'd brought it all back. DO YOU WANT TO SEE HARVEST AGAIN?

>>
>>86523058
In defense/hope I'd say that those were likely editorial mandates given how intrusive/shitty DC editorial was at the start of the New 52. In fact those sound exactly like the types of shitty ideas editorial would force on people and Lobdell's always been a "don't rock the boat" kind of guy and will go along with them.

If a Gen13 book is coming they're almost certainly going to ignore/retcon that shit anyway to the point where it won't matter. Just say they were clones or something of the actual teens and it's good. If he can write it in a style like his GenX (which was character heavy over big plots/actions and kind of stream of consciousness, all things that would serve Gen13 well IMO) it could work.
>>
>>86523058
You'd think it would be since the only good thing he ever wrote was Generation X. He already worked on Gen13 though and while it got the tone right it wasn't very good.

So why did he kept bringing Harvest again and again even after DCYou? Lobdell love that shitty villain he created. There was no reason to reference Harvest ever again after the end of the first TT series, specially when Pfeifer did everything he could to steer the new book away from that and give the characters STARlabs as new antagonist, but when Lobdell assumed the book again for a bit the first he did was bring Harvest into the fold again.

How many times are you guys going to blame the editors for everything bad Lobdell writes?
>>
>>86522871
There's still too much at risk, since it's pretty much the second most hyped return after Wally West. Leaving it to a mediocre writer whose only good book is based on a buddy cop dynamic would be a bad move.

Yeah if they could get Warren to come back it would be amazing. It's one of my favorite runs ever too.

I read Synder's New 52 Batman run up until the conclusion of Death of the Family, it was then that I realized that his comic (while at DC) is utter garbage, and remained as such throughout the years.

Most of this isn't very believable at all nor are they good lies.

Abnett is already working on the Judas Contract rehash with Priest. They aren't taking Abnett off it unless he's getting another book. He is exclusive so it would be on the list with the new stuff. You should have at least realized this and put him on something like LoSH since it's believable they'd give it to a previous writer and Johns has been saying it's in the next wave.

Simone teased something to do with thunder, I'd have at least put her on JSA if we're memeing.

And there will likely be more than two Wildstorm books if they're doing a big announcement for it. HB was 4. YA was 4. Very good chance this is also 4.

Does DC really think it's wise to have three Wildstorm titles running while Wildstorm has failed to sell every single time? And what's with the obsession for team books? Give the characters a solo, make the audience care about them individually and them put them on a team.

If true that's terrible news. It most likely means the relaunch hasn't added any new real sales at all to the title after returned copies are taken into account.

It dropped from 77,000* to 50,000* in under two months, 10k of that between issues 4 and 5 (both August).

>*

You really need to learn what those stars mean. Those figures no longer represent sales, they represent printing numbers. Sales can't be calculated until after the returns are dealt with.

>but

Look, it's a title that sells around 20k naturally. That's probably what it's still doing under all the unsold copies - for sale or return 40% of printing sold is pretty good. Hell, look at Iron Man, wildly popular for a decade of movies - can't shift books worth a damn. Tops out 40k average on most runs.

There's no "long term push". Comic books don't drive movie audiences. There aren't enough sales in the entire market to account for that, let alone 77,000*. He's not going to become movie-popular just because he sells more books - nor is he going to sell more books just because he's getting a movie. If it worked that way, Batman would have been selling a million copies a month on a slow month ever since 2008. Hell, Walking Dead had a big jump from becoming a tv show and you know what? when you're getting 18m viewers and you can't even reliably sell 100k copies a month without 50 fuckin variants, it's time to accept that the comic book market is niche.

Are you an idiot? Wally lost the book in late 2009, he sold well for entirely 20 YEARS.
And when DC offed him from the book it was because he was selling under 50k, which is around the numbers Barry sells on a good day during New52.

>>86529769
There isnt a second Flash book because suits were scared of Wally overshadowing Barry's One True Flash status. There is no danger of that anymore so they can give him a second title.

Stay mad and keep buying Titans, anon. Maybe (and it is a big maybe) DC will give Wally his own book if he manged to gain fans beside you.

Is it that He-Man crossover book, then?

Also, Sterling Gates has said he'd sign a DC exclusive if he was guaranteed two years of a Supergirl book. It might seem like Orlando is going to be too busy juggling Supergirl, JLA, and now this, but he may just leave Supergirl to Gates, and Gates will sign an exclusive and work on Titans.

I imagine, after the Judas Contract arc, if this is true that is, Abnett'll probably be ready to move onto another book, like, say, a LoSH a few months down the line. He's probably off Titans only because he can't keep up with the schedule right now, it might be why Aquaman is going monthly.

I guess it's always possible she was talking about Shazam with Tawky Tawny but once you get to reaching like that, you could easily say she's on Action Comics writing Cat Grant and Lightning Lad as supporting characters. Wouldn't make much sense, is what you're thinking, but it would mean that Action Comics is now set up to easily crossover with Supergirl as well as setting up a potential LoSH Rebirth book. Of course, I just thought this up on the spot, but what I mean is, we don't really know what she's doing.

And I freely admit I don't really know what every creator is currently doing, and I was asking about the crossover because I'd completely forgotten who the writer was, all I remember is Williams II is on art. Thanks for answering, but I didn't really need to see how deep that stick up your ass went. I realize this is /co/ but I after how nice nearly every Rebirth thread has been, I was expecting something similar. My bad.

>>86520625
God you really have a shitty taste. Abnett's Aquaman is one of the best Rebirth titles! Probably you are a Marvel intern, still butthurt because Abnett said at Marlel to go fuck themselves, and signed a DC exclusive, and as always your company did, you begun the dirty war against Dan. But don't blame Dan for leaving Marvel. Instead you should blame your own company and Bendis, for shitting upon Abnett's work.

Don't like me wrong, anon. I think Snyder's original Batman run is a good comic, but it dragged a lot in some places and it was too fucking dense on monologues. Snyder is a good writer but he comes from a literary background so he often seems to forget that he's writing comics and starts writing a fucking book. All Star is written more like a comic.

>>86532191
Captain Marvel seems also likely. The rumors of a Simone Shazam book has been around forever.
>>
>>86534653
This.
They didn't just tease them in the rebirth issue to just suddenly go "nope" we're doing JSA instead.
>>
>>86534659
The editor of Black Magick and him go back. He won't abandon the book.
>>
>>86534698
He can always go back, doesn't mean that he's going back soon. Magic hasn't been off for atleast a year, expect Rucka to kick around DC for atleast a year or two.
>>
>>86534692
They're hoping to do both, though. LOSH was teased in DC Rebirth as well.
>>
>>86534692
They could, especially considering the person that wrote Rebirth special is Geoff Johns. Besides, JSA was teased too.
>>
>>86534724
Oh, yeah.
I forgot they teased LOSH and JSA with the "old insane" guy.
>>
>>86534653
>>86534692
It's probably not. It's something Tom King pitched personally to DC. A personal project. Probably a revival of an obscure property like Omega Men, but not LOSH since King said his pitch was going to be approved after DC already decided the LOSH was coming back.
>>
>>86534754
Knowing King that could be some extremely obscure shit though.
>>
>>86534754
Nothing you said makes any sense.
>>
>>86534659
He'll throw a fit and flounce in six months like always.
>>
>>86534800
How does it not?

LOSH was already decided months ago. It was after the Rebirth one shot was already out that Tom King said he pitched something to DC and he was pretty sure they were going to approve it.
>>
>>86534777
He said in an AMA at Reddit months ago that he would like to try with some really obscure shit like Atomic Knights. He thinks you can write about anything and make it interesting and then he cited the example of how Moore did Watchmen with the Charlton characters.
>>
>>86534897
Here's the exact quote:

>"I honestly don't care who I write, who they give me. You make the best of what you have. Moore made Watchmen with the Charltons characters. You can do anything with anyone."

No they haven't. Geoff Johns had plans and put a lock on the character that nobody else could use him. But like Seven Seas those plans didn't go anywhere.

It was more suprising that even was announced as a weekly, seeing as jimbo is basically a "meme" at this point with his quick drawing skills.

Yeah the best was when it was announced he fully embraced the meme

" Me on a bi-weekly lolz ;) "

Aquaman/Wonder Woman/Flash/Superman are strong candidates to go monthly when Rebirth Wave 2 hits.

>>86534624
No way are they going to put the JSA, atom and the LoS in the Rebirth oneshots and not do it, Johns is president, he'll make them do them

>>
>>86535699
I wish this meme would fucking end already. Johns started to become like that only when they had his hands full and made him jump from a title to another quickly. Previous to that he always delivered what he promised. Now that he doesn't have to write anything he can call the shots for other writers to actually do it.

Justice League, Superman, the entire TV stuff and the movies
>>

That makes no sense. I think it's just antibatfags that like to shipost and shit on anyone that writes Batman.
>>
>>86535826
>>86535866
He was also very involved with the TV shows and had a limited amount of input in the movies at the time. He was also planning Rebirth for a long time already and having talks with all the writers. The guy is a fucking machine, I don't know how he found the time to do everything, I don't blame him for his quality of writing going down in JL, since he didn't have that much time and also it shows that he put all of him on DC Rebirth.
>>
>>86535866
He was writing Superman as well

>>86528738
>implying Johns isn't Bendis
>>
>>86536523
>>86536524
Yeah. I just hope his new role means he can sketch out the plotlines he wants to see and give them to some handpicked creators to run with
>>
>>86536562
That's what Rebirth is. The entire thing was his idea. He sat down with each creative team to discuss every book.
>>
>>86517144

Assuming all of this is true.

I'm happy Titans has a new artist, sad that Abnett is leaving.

I was hoping to see some Wally centric spinoff so Titans wasn't just the Wally West show, too, but it looks like it didn't do well enough in their eyes to try that out.
>>
>>86536593
Johns role in Rebirth is to create the universe bible for the creatives.

but I'm talking about the storylines he was developing like Rise of the Seven Seas, Shazam et al
>>
>>86529892
The only reason Wally sold well for 20 years was he was on The Flash title. It's the same reason Batman books will sell even when Jim Gordon is Batman. It's why Superman books will have a minimum amount of sales even at the worst of times.

You stick Wally West in a book that isn't called "The Flash" and he putters out around 20k and gets cancelled in a year. Barry on The Flash could barely, consistently hold over 30K and Wally wasn't any better when he was leading the title in 2009 under MARK WAID. Name recognition alone should've sold that book and it didn't.

Now we're nearly a decade removed, his fanbase scattered to the winds, and you think he can handle a solo? Be happy he's a major character in a team book.

Giving someone a big moment in an event book doesn't mean they can sell, anon.

If you kicked Barry off The Flash title and put Wally in it it'd probably sell about the same, probably a little worse from diehard Barry fans tossing it. You give Wally his own book and it's gonna flop unless it's got a big name like Johns on it.

This is bullshit. There's no way Metal Men are getting an ongoing. A miniseries like the Hawkman/Adam Strange and Vigilante things it's possible. Same with Firestorm and Metamorpho. Miniseries doing a spotlight of less popular characters that can't carry an ongoing.
>>
>>86539837
More ideas
plastic man anthology like bizzaro world
a new question series with Vic Sage and Renee and the magic one
Enemy Ace or another Blackhawk series
>>
>>86539910
Howard Chaykin's Blackhawk led to an ongoing
>>
>>86539910

i figure if metal men are showing up it's gonna be in Cyborg
>>
>>86540047
That was like 30 years ago, when C tier characters could hold an ongoing.

I think Steel could get an ongoing too. They brought some of supporting cast back in superwoman
>>
>>86528712
Ivyfags hates Harley Quinn
>>
>>86540174
I think Steel's ongoing is Superwoman, or at least, that's how most would perceive it. Steel is about as important to Superwoman as Lois is in the main Superman book, which is pretty damn important, so I don't see the point in having a Steel ongoing when you can just double ship on Superwoman.
>>
>>86540296
Nah, just Ivyleague. I know a lot of Ivyfags that like Harley
>>
>>86536727
Well this is a proven fact
Make another Flash book with Wally and watch it barely last 12 issues
>>
>>86536727
this is some true arrogance
I mean you have a character who is barely known to the public anymore
Wally is not some huge character anymore
>>
>>86539328
Nightwing is a Batman character. Much like how Robin could keep a solo series running but Impulse couldn't. Flash isn't popular enough to support spinoffs for any lengthy period of time anymore and hasn't since Waid wrote the book.

It's why after Rebirth 1.0 they never did anything but the main Flash book. They knew a book starring Wally but not called The Flash wouldn't sell and they were in dire straights.

The Flash -- the name, the comic -- sells. Not Barry or Wally.
>>
>>86539405
There's 0 advertisement in comic stores for Titans and it sure as hell doesn't get brought up in other comics.

It's going to crossover with fucking Deathstroke of all irrelevant things.

The thing had no marketing or push to it because they had to keep the Wally secret for so long that the book was fucking made and the marketing done by the time Rebirth launched.

If it was a real thing they were pushing they'd put a big team on it. You know, like they did Wonder Woman.
>>
>>86540953
The vast majority of people who even know the name Wally West only know him from the TV show and YJ cartoon (and maaaybe the JL cartoon but most people would just remember him as The Flash).

It's a joke that anyone thinks their precious Wally West from the comics is anything more than a brief nostalgia trip. They wanted nothing to do with him for the last 8 years, he clearly isn't that important or that irreplaceable to the company.

Much like Cyborg, he's one of Johns' pet favorites.
>>
>>86540969
And to think Johns wanted to do for the Flash franchise the same he did for Green Lantern.

Too bad the reboot screwed up his plans.
>>
>>86541869
The reboot didn't screw up his plans. The reboot wasn't even beginning to be planed when he started Rebirth.

Rebirth failing is what did it. It just didn't make enough money because Barry Allen, as a name, wasn't a huge draw for a lot of people. Just like a Wally return itself isn't a big deal (Watchmen is).

It also wasn't nearly as good a comic and the delays were awful.
>>
>>86542381
They could have done the same thing they did for Green Lantern if they let Johns make his big "Sinestro Corps War" type event.

Maybe it would fare better now that Barry is a better estabilished name.

Again, management wanted to do that, too, but Flash Rebirth failed as a series. Sales were half what was expected (they were expecting MORE than GL Rebirth's huge numbers) with shop owners voicing discontent with extra copies on shelves that people weren't buying.

There was no money in The Flash during or after Barry's return. His #1, series reboot numbers were worse than BART'S, for god's sake.

They specifically said the only two titles that followed up on DCU rebirth were Titans and Flash, and both did in very minor ways before doing their own shit.

Because of course they aren't going to blow their Watchmen load in a B solo book and a C team book.

I'm the one telling him his special snowflake favorite character isn't worth shit. The Flash is important, not Barry or Wally.

I guess after the movie it'll just be Barry by name recognition tho.

I hope the new Titans artist is good.

WildCATS, JSA, and Gen13. I'm hyped.

That sounds like absolute horseshit. Flash Rebirth has been one of the biggest breakouts by all metrics and every report. It continually goes back for more and more reprints and continues to be a top seller.
