What Will My Fourth Title Be?

Out of the five, you should go with Justice League to stay in the loop. It may be the lynchpin series of the entire line. But if you're interested in the other four anyway (and to be fair, I'm not!), you should get those too. Keep an open mind.....and bank account! ;-)

Knowing you as I know you (which is to say, almost not at all...) may I suggest as a fourth title either Batgirl, written by Gail Simone, or Resurrection Man, written by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning (AKA DnA)?

Both Simone and DnA have written some outstanding comics in the past. Simone's Secret Six never failed to get a laugh out of me (King Shark in full-on assault mode singing "I'm a shark! I'm a shark! I'm a Shaaaaark!" had me in stitches!), and oft times a tear as well. DnA have written all of Marvel's "Cosmic" comics from Annihilation: Conquest onward, and have also made me laugh ("I am Groot!") and get a li'l bit misty-eyed at times.

(Heck, Resurrection Man should be a perfect fit, as every time he dies he "regenerates" as himself again with a different power, like a certain Doctor you like...)

After the first issues come out of course, if you like Frankenstein, try Animal Man by the same writer. (And Sweet Tooth at Vertigo! It's awesome!)

Of the five fourth choices you offer, I suggest Justice League (because that's one of the ones I'll be trying).

Of the five you listed I'd pick Justice League. Second, I'd go with Green Lantern New Guardians. The only thing about Justice League is, I don't know if you are a Geoff Johns fan. I am, so I'm looking forward to it. He's really popular but I know he's not everyone's cup of tea.

Interesting input. Right now, I am leaning towards narrowing it down as below:

4a)Justice League
4b)Green Lantern: The New Guardians

4c)Voodoo

My five will be Action, Batwoman, Batgirl, Swamp Thing, and Wonder Woman. I'll still be picking up the Vertigo series iZombie as singles and follow Unwritten and Fairest in trade collections.

...I am inclined towards ACTION COMICS and maybe SUPERMAN to make up a full set , maybe BATGIRL with Gail Simone on it , maybe maybe maybe SUPERGIRL .

The FRANKENSTEIN series interests me , 'cos I like the DC Frankie . HAWK AND DOVE interests me - I like the characters and Liefield with ( presumably ) some structure he has to follow/some editorial-authorial authority , I think , could be good !!!!!!!!!

That JONAH HEX one interests me - a little - and I'm inclined too to get JUSTICE LEAGUE at least at the beginning !!!

Just realized The Shade (12 issues) is going to be written by James Robinson.

I'll probably give that one a look, too.

I would say Justice League because you can be pretty much positive it is one that DC will NOT cancel whatever the sales on it as a flagship title. My personal leaning is GL:NG (no, it won't stand for Not Good, or at least I hope it won't ;) just because I think it will be an interesting mix of characters and the premise of a team of lanterns from across the spectrum, not just colour but emotion, interests me.

I thought colour IS emotion in the Johns Lantern-verse.

eg If you feel love, then you tke to wearing pink lingerie.
