I personally think this is a fantastic design. I really, really like it.

I've always thought that a masked Superman would've been the best update for the character. I get that the "glasses/no glasses" is iconic, but it's hard to believe anybody wouldn't recognize Clark as Superman in Man of Steel. That being said, certain heroes if not all heroes that don't have a mask should just not bother hiding their identity. Especially after Green Lantern when Ryan Reynolds had on the mask and all I could think of was how much it still looked like Hal.

Like certain characters could really benefit from modern updates on concealing their identity. Just my opinion.

This lil series started out good, then just became trash. But I would read this issue just to see who's behind the mask

I hate it when comics introduce a character from a film or tv show. I hope if WB's does do a Green Arrow film that they won't use Diggle.

Hope they don't water down Big Barda too much.

Like Harley Quinn, Renee Montoya, Mercy Graves, and Jimmy Olsen (radio). Or are animated tv shows an exception.

@Snotzo, Okay i'll have to say three out of those four character's are actually good and i don't mind them.

Harley was a huge success and has been portrayed well (New 52 not so much), Mercy Graves is a great assistant right hand woman for Luthor, Montoya was originally a cop who became the new Question... this was meh but a great way to diversify without fing up already established characters (Wally West new 52) and Jimmy.... well.....

It's probably Teen Titans' Superboy...

Faked his death like Red Robin & put on the big boy pants.
