This if seriously going to be one of the greatest Batman comic runs in history. If you even remotely like Batman, you don't want to miss out.

Is it Snyder melting faces or an unexpected NEW CHALLENGER?

It's Snyder.

Although if you want face melting you'll want to buy Detective Comics (THIS IS A JOKE DON'T ACTUALLY BUY DETECTIVE COMICS)

I actually bought this already.

Are you proud of me?

I bought a DC title without you (or anyone) even telling me to.

YOU BETTER BE RIGHT THOUGH.

Well, Sinestro Corps War was finished being published serially in 2008, and the paperback collection came out...last week. <_<

Hardcover collections come out first, though, and those come out quicker but are still slow. But DC might be changing that; the Snyder "Black Mirror" hardcover and Batman Inc., two series that finish this year, are supposed to come out in December.

Who knows, though.

Sinestro Corps has been collected in two paperback trades for years, it just got an oversized single trade.

The hardcover will most likely come out late March/early April, assuming the book remains on schedule.

But if I start Batman, I'd have to start GL and RL too, so that's $9 a month, and I can't loan out stuff to my friends if it's as flimsy as a standard comic. It'll get lost or ripped. If I give them a book though, it'll come back in almost as good of shape as I left it.

What other series from the new 52 would you recommend?

I always watched Justice League and Batman the Animated Series, and read a couple comics, but have almost always been a Marvel reader. Lately though, idk, parts of the Marvel Universe are awesome, others...not so much, and the constant tie-in are getting tiring.

I feel like I'd like Green Lantern, always thought I wouldn't like the "cosmos" type superheros, but found myself loving Nova. Also, is there a Thunderbolts kind of equivalent?

Thunderbolts closest equivalent would be Suicide Squad. Which may be the worst book of this entire relaunch. Don't buy it.

Green Lantern is excellent but Green Lantern #1 here may as well just be Green Lantern #78. It completely continues where the last preboot issue left off. It will be difficult. I do reccomend going back and reading all of the Green Lantern stuff. Green Lantern Corps came out today though, and it's very new reader friendly.

Of the New 52 so far (there's still a week left, the ones I'd recommend that are easily accessible are:

Animal Man
Red Hood and the Outlaws

Blue Beetle
Green Lantern Corps
Action Comics
Justice League
Batwing
Batman
Static Shock
Batwoman
Demon Knights
Frankenstein: Agent of S.H.A.D.E
.
Superboy
Supergirl
Wonder Woman

Bolded are what I personally enjoyed the most.

The Goddamn Batman was a hilariously awful comic that is so bad that it's amazing.

This somehow manages to be better.

if you wanna read Green Lantern, you're better off starting with the story arc Green Lantern: Rebirth than with the new #1 issue that came out last week since it's weighed down with years of continuity... that for the most part started with Rebirth!

the closest to a Thunderbolts book in DC right now is... that awful book Suicide Squad

just read Gail Simone's Secret Six that also was before this reboot!

...so much for recommendations for the new 52!

Apparently that wasn't what I read. Now I'm kind of confused. I know it was DCNU and had Batman and the Joker in it.
