Our pre-reboot lists are pretty different, but I like how our post-boot ones ended up identical, even to the "won't touch" category (except that I never read ("red") Suicide Squad, so I'm not invested in it, but Naked!Harley sure doesn't make me want to start!)

I just don't understand how one company can have so many terrible ideas all at the same time! It's hard work making things into the opposite of what they should be.

[dorianisms]

I know! In some cases I can at least understand what they did, even if I violently disagree ("Babsgirl is iconic! Black Canary is the real BoP star!"), but in others I am just completely stupefied, with the prime example of that being whatever the fuck happened to Teen Titans. Like, where did that even come from

[gwenfrankenstien]

Right? Like, how is "the belligerent powerhouse thief known as Wonder Girl" a thought someone has?! What is going on? Why is the writer of that book apparently really upset that people think he is changing everything when he clearly is changing everything?

NO ANSWERS, ONLY MORE QUESTIONS.

What the hell are they smoking?

[gwenfrankenstien]

That is one of my many questions, yes!

It's telling when everything made more sense when Grant Morrison was in charge.

Wow, DC decided to suck massively. D: Jesus Christ.

Bruce Wayne is in SIX BOOKS

Steph, Cass, Renee, and Helena are in NONE

(Red Hood and the Outlaws, however, sounds ridiculously awesome, I will hand it to them there. It is about Jason hanging out with Roy and Kory. And doing antihero stuff I guess.)

[feverbeats]

No one needs six books about Bruce Wayne. NO ONE.

Ughhhhh, that is so gross. >:(

I have wanted Roy and Jason in the same place since EVER.
