So with the DC Reboot, my friend and I decided that the best way to support and sample the DC Universe that we’ll see for  the next 25 years, we’ll have to buy ALL 52 Titles.
I know it’s crazy because this is just the first wave of new titles with throwaway books like Hawk and Dove. But this is the start of a new era and we’re glad to be part of it. We’re splitting it 50/50 and we’re about to start the live draft.

Honestly, I can’t tell if this post is serious or sarcasm. “DC universe that we’ll see for the next 25 years”?? 75% of these books won’t last 25 MONTHS. (And of the ones that do, a lot will survive in title-only, like “Action”, “Superman”, “Batman”, “Detective”, “Justice League”.)
When has DC done ANYTHING since Infinite Crisis (in the 1980s) that has lasted more than 2.5 years without some big canon-shattering event? What makes anyone think this will be any different?

“This summer, EVERYTHING is different and NOTHING will be the same… again. Until, you know, we put it back to normal.”
