Why the hell are the other writers mum about this? especially Morrison? i thought his influence was just a notch under Johns. The fact that they're complacent would support this being just a gimmick. Honestly, do you see anyone telling Morrison to drop what he's doing? WHUT? Depends,you think he'll keep his mouth shut if DC allowed him to write Superman? Cause it looks like Grant will be handling Supes after the reboot. |

Phantom Stargrave: Go check the thread on the Vine. I forgot which page it was (too lazy to find it), but I think Babs made an update about a possible relationship between Supes and Diana. Poor Lois.  Brand New Day DC style  Basically. |

Heard they're ending the Supes/Lois relationship cause of the copyright issues.

Morrison dropping what he's been planning is one of my major questions, as well. I can't see him complying to that. As for offering him Superman, what was stopping them from doing it under regular New Earth continuity? Morrison's love for Supes is well documented.
On a positive note, give Deathstroke to a damn good writer this time around.

What are the issues you have with Slade's representation in it? And will that series remain once this reboot starts, I wonder. |

Blatant character derailment aside (even though this series just keeps up on that trend which was, funnily enough, mostly originated by Johns himself) Deathstroke is a character who has a long history of participation in good stories. My issues aren't so much with the way he's written power-wise (even though power levels in that book are all over the place, Killer Croc somehow managed to hurt Osiris), but the fact that the book is, in general, very poorly conceived and written. The art is fine, but there's only so much terrible writing one can stomach because the book looks good.
As for why I'm still reading it, well, I gave my reason: Deathstroke. He quickly became one of my favourite characters a while back once I intensely investigated his past appearances, and Titans unfortunately is the book where he frequents, so I have to read it to be up to date with him. He isn't a character who has a multitude of books each month in order to to pick from, so I can't be very eclectic. But I can ask for a better creative team next time around.

So, everything I've read in comics (from DC) will soon become completely irrelivant?

On a positive note, give Deathstroke to a damn good writer this time around. Maybe he'll keep the Batman stuff in canon using the Return of Bruce Wayne explanation or STH like that. Grant's time travel theories are different from Johns,according to him you can't just change the past. |

Who is the creative team behind it anyway? That is too bad though. I really like Slade too. Maybe a new writer will use him more appropriately. I understand (my comment was a joke to begin with, as I think you already know). Sometimes you just have to stay current and wait for the status quo to improve. |

He's the writer who's gradually been building his character for so long now, the reboot seems like a personal slap to the face if all of it becomes obsolete.
Him and Johns, but Johns is the reboot architect. |

Eric Wallace/Fabricio Fiorentino. Fiorentino is pretty good, I really enjoy his art even though it's somewhat uneven at times.
Yep, I caught the joke but I still wanted to give a few valid reasons. |
