New Teen Titans. Not happy about Wonder Girl, because it seems like we're losing Dick's great pasts with many women now.
Tim's costume looks amazing, but WHO is he?
You all gonna be here when I wake up?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

New Teen Titans.
What the actual FUCK. Uh, yeah, I'm out. I guess I need to find some indie comics.
(That said, given all my Tim/Kon love, it really does look like Superboy and Red Robin are on a gay pride float.)

I would read MANY of those if they were real.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I love the Green Lantern Flipbook.

Wow, DC's bringing in Liefield?! So 52 is definitely too many books.

So I just argued that Babs wasn't a fridging anymore because Oracle turned out too cool. Is that a supportable stance, you think? I mean, they might have paralysed her to get angst for the big boys, but they took an established character in her own right, and five years later, she was even cooler. So it kinda worked against what the fail they might have intended.

Wildcat Takes His Shirt Off and Punches People for 32 Pages would make me break my DC embargo.

Some folks on Twitter have pointed out that making Barbara into Batgirl again puts Oracle fans in the rather awkward position of hoping that she's horribly injured.

Not really, no. That the character wound up in Suicide Squad and then basically being TEH AWESOMEST! AFTER The Killing Joke doesn't negate that she was 'fridged.
