DC November Solicitations

Ugh, Chris and Thara's new costumes are ugly as sin. What was wrong with their old, simpler logos? Maybe it's just the artist, though, 'cause Mon-El also looks dumb there.
 
Those are bad. I really liked their first ones. How many costumes are these two going to have?

Also, I haven't even heard of worlds finest. Is that an ongoing?
 
It's a miniseries. It's the new Superman status quo meeting the new Batman status quo, basically.
 
What have they done to my beautiful Mon-El.
 
The Nightwing and Flamebird costumes wouldn't have been that bad if the logos were better.

Mon-El on the other hand...
 
Flamebird's face on that cover scares me.

World's Finest is a really cool idea. I'm glad they're doing it. I'd be more glad if either cast had more characters I actually gave a crap about, but I'll still pick it up.

Splitting the JSA off into two teams is a good idea given the size of the cast. But you couldn't pay me to read a comic with the younger cast and the older cast is being written by Bill Willingham, who's infamous for flagrantly ignoring paltry things like continuity or established personalities. I suppose I'll give Willingham's comic a try to at least see how he's handling Alan, Jay, Ted, Mid-Nite, and Mr. Terrific.
 
Full Solicits are up:

Now that Mr. J’s secret is out in the open, will the girls’ reaction take them to the point of no return? And will Harley Quinn ever be the same?

-From Sirens #6 solicit. Yeah, they are finally going to do it. They are just going to reveal that Joker is gay, and all of this stuff with Batman was just flirting all these years. Poor Harley :(

Power Girl is MIA, I assume that's just missing a month. Unless it only made it to issue 6 before getting axed, which would not surprise me

I thought this was the month that Blackest Night: Wonder Woman was suppose to start. Oh well
 
Blackest Night #5
Green Lantern #48
Detective Comics #859 (possibly; waiting on the first arc to finish)
Secret Six #15 (possibly)
Wonder Woman #38

Trade-waiting on Fables, Jack of Fables, House of Mystery, and Madame Xanadu.
 
Chasing down a mystery that haunts Manhattan socialites, Madame Xanadu discovers that she is in fact the center of their creepy plot. And if that’snot enough, she’s being tailed by a shadowy detective who just might be out of this world.

Solicit for November's Xanadu. 'A shadowy detective' that's 'out of this world'. J'onn maybe? I believe he was a detective when he first came to Earth.
 
I've been wondering who the detective is as well but I think Wagner's using Golden Age characters. Spectre and Green Lantern (Scott). It's probably someone from the JSA.
 
That's true, but depending on the time period we could still potentially see J'onn as John Jones. I don't really know what year(s) that is to the current canon, but it's possible
 
Well, I guess I have to pick up World's Finest, if nothing else.
EDIT: Forgot I still read Secret Six too. And, damn, that has to be the greatest picture of Deadshot I've ever seen.

Agent Orange and his Orange Lanterns face off against the Black Lantern Corps, and Larfleeze finds himself wanting something he never has before: Help.

Hahahahaha
 
J'onn was drawn to Earth in or before the Golden Age in current continuity, I think. So it could easily be Detective John Jones in Madame Xanadu's comic. Wagner likes to insert recognizable DC characters into that series. Although, to be honest, I was kind of hoping we might see a bit more of the Sandman before this current arc ended. Oh well.

Oh, and I have a strong hunch that the new Batgirl is Misfit based on that cover and solicit.
