Ironic that DC went through all this effort with new 52, but it turns out the way to improve quality and increase sales was to let their flagship characters progress and move on, rather than trying to restart them from the beginning.

I am REALLY worried about Bendis getting his hands on them... preview hints are not encouraging for the happy home life of the Lane-Kents.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
