My buy pile - New 52 Edition

I have compiled a list of the DC New 52 titles that I have purchased, starting with the number 1 issues. I will list those below, followed by the titles I dropped after 1. After that, I will ist titles that are "on the bubble," meaning I will buy the second issue but may not follow to the third. Finally, I will list my keepers. The keeper books are safe through issue 3, but I guarantee nothing past issue 6. At some point, I will have to add a "wait for the trade" section as even 11 DC titles will strain my monthly budget soon.

My most notable bubble title is Justice League since it is considered the flagship new 52 title. The problem is that Justice League International is so much better and it gives me a team fix that is better than what is found in JL or Teen Titans. I have active subscriptions to Action Comics and Green Lantern, so they will be dropped from my pull. Hawk and Dove needs to blow me away to bring me bsack for issue 4, so it may be on the bubble next month. Superboy is my surprise like of the new 52 and has earned a big spot at the top of my reccomend list. Hawkman and Aquaman are 2 fringe titles that I might like the idea of the characters better than the execution, but they stay for the time being. All GL books are safe, but since Kyle is my favorite, only New Guardians is guaranteed to keep me coming back monthly. Action Comics, Batman and Wonder Woman give me a book of each of the big trinity in DCnU while tiles like Blackhawks and Voodoo give me something more obscure.

All in all, I went from buying two DC books per month to somewhere between 11-17. It's a big win for DC, as they are making more revenue, but it has also pulled me back into a hobby that I was only a few bad issues away from giving up entirely. I am interested to see my buy pile around issue 6 of these new series. Hopefully the subsequent books will not disappoint.
