NO, believe me bro I'm not excited about the New Universe, it's a marketing gimmick meant to draw in the people who don't like comics, but only alienated the actual fans who love this stuff.
Flashpoint was pretty much crap and the new 52 is even worse.
I was just enjoying the first well written issue of JLI, by Johns. It had some interesting elements and some clever scenes. Jurgens is incapable of pulling that off, he is trying to be a sincere Stan Lee and post 1980's that's not gonna cut it.
Again, I'm a big booster fan but DC is ruining their own list by cutting off the continuity that the fanboys like me love.
Marketing consultants told them to expand their brand and get into USA Today with their stupid reboot. It will shoot them in the foot just like they deserve.
As for Booster, it's nice to see they are bringing the time travel element back that was so well used in 52 and 52 pick up. That was booster at his best, at least his best since the JL with beetle and geffen.
Again, please keep up the good work on the blog!

After NuDC screw up, even Sci-Fi The Arrow looks promising. I can't wait for it start, less then half a month!
And I can't wait for it fail so that they move on with Booster Gold series! Because you just can't go wrong about Gold ^_^
