While I'm not keeping all the books I tried on my pull I still liked being able to experience them. DC had rather limited ideas into terms of heroes vs. villains with very little grey area, something that changed in the new 52. A HUGE improvement.<br /><br />As long as I have books I love I'll continue getting them but Marvel lost me after too many of the bad choices so I'm hoping DC fares better.Erin S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15663158782066282265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056373842046198497.post-313593772812374332011-12-14T10:33:35.190-08:002011-12-14T10:33:35.190-08:00I'll be honest, books like Demon Knights are o...I'll be honest, books like Demon Knights are one of the main things I like about the New 52 - DC putting out a sword and sorcery book in the 21st century! While a lot of the line is made up of safe superheroes, they've taken a few chances and I applaud that.<br /><br />Unless the entire line turns into Batman and Superman, I think there's always going to be something for me... even if they only last eight issues.Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16519816290322068250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056373842046198497.post-30838549122503881552011-12-13T22:02:24.534-08:002011-12-13T22:02:24.534-08:00Well some of my reads, like JLI, are books I reall...Well some of my reads, like JLI, are books I really enjoy that are a huge reason for getting into the new 52. I'm not sure if I would continue some of my titles if I didn't have them. And books like Demons Knights are good but I sadly can't see a strong following for swords and magic.Erin S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15663158782066282265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056373842046198497.post-66800752946348595262011-12-13T13:15:42.246-08:002011-12-13T13:15:42.246-08:00Ah, right, I see.

Give it a few months and some of my titles may be getting cancelled, too.<br /><br />Still, maybe they'll be replaced with something better?

Getting into talks with fellow comic book fans usually does that to me. lol. But all it says is:<br /><br />"- DC will probably be ending some of the lower-selling New 52 titles around issue #8, and those will most likely be replaced by other new titles."Erin S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15663158782066282265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056373842046198497.post-75029410677774034282011-12-13T09:01:08.717-08:002011-12-13T09:01:08.717-08:00Say it isn't so, Erin.
