Since Suicide Squad and Teen Titans are being relaunched are there another series that you would like to see rebooted that have been cancelled since the start of the new 52.

Blue Beetle, it'd be nice to see him turn up again somewhere. Plus it'd be nice to have some characters that aren't white. Static would be cool to see again, his solo wasn't handled particularly well.

Demon Knights, loved that book. Medieval Vandal Savage was hilarious.

I was always a lobo fan. I'd like to see him with a solo series. Not a dark and serious one but a comedic one like he had in the the past. DC needs to diversify a bit.

Static Shock is one I'm curious about. I've read the old Milestone collections and loved it, but the reviews for the New 52 run that was cancelled whave been really mixed and I'm not game enough to pick it up. It's a character I love from the cartoon though. Anybody else read the new 52 version?

It's a character I love from the cartoon though. Anybody else read the new 52 version? Yes, I did. It isn't that good. Feel free to skip it. Read Rebirth of the Cool instead. The New 52 Series had a lot of problems mainly being that the writing isn't very strong, and the plot can just be downright confusing at times. The last couple of issues are ok though. Static's sister is cloned before the series starts, never explained. Static has a clone(?) or a duplicate of some sorts, it isn't explained well. The enemies aren't very well defined. Unless you know someone who has it or can pick up the trade for cheap (like really cheap) I'd avoid it and just read the other stuff again.

I'd just been listening to an interview with Marc Bernardin which I really enjoyed and was hoping it might be good. Oh well. Thanks for saving my money.

Was it the Nerdist stuff you were listening to? He only writes the last two issues, which were the ok ones but by that point the damage had been done.

I wish they'd give Sword and Sorcery and Legion of Super-Heroes another try. Also Demon Knights, the Movement and Blackhawks.

Hey there, I think we might be heading for new legion of superheroes book, as they are about to appear in JL united.. so with a little luck they might appear again after that. as for The Movement I would love it to come back... but there is little chance that is going to happen

So why wasn't Batgirl rebooted along with the "All-New 52?" It seems like Suicide Squad and Teen Titans are more or less the same kind of book even with the renumbering. Batgirl is the only one with a completely new direction.

That certainly seems to be the case based on the Internet reaction but renumbering would help sales, no?
