DC 52 Covers

While surfing the internet, I found this picture someone made that shows the covers of the upcoming DC 52 relaunch/reboot (whatever you want to call it) along with the writer and artist for the comics.

I'll most likely be checking out:

• Justice League
• The Flash
• Green Arrow
• Justice League International
• Captain Atom
• Green Lantern
• Green Lantern Corps
• Green Lantern: The New Guardians
• Red Lanterns
• Batman
• Batman & Robin
• Teen Titans
• Static Shock
• Deathstroke
• OMAC
• Blue Beetle

The others don't interest me as much, but I'll ask around and see what others thinks of them and I'll go from there. I'm still excited for this new relaunch/reboot since it will give me a chance to jump into DC without reading an excessive amount of comics.

Booster Gold and Blue Beetle in Smallville

I just found out that Booster Gold and Blue Beetle (looks like Jaime Reyes) will be appearing in an upcoming Smallville episode. I have never really watched Smallville, besides about 3-5 episodes, and they were really bad in my opinion (especially the Justice League episode). So I don't know if they will butcher the dynamic duo or what, considering the episodes I've watched seemed to be poorly written. I might tune in to this episode though on April 22^nd.

The costumes though, could've been done way better. I don't know if it's just the picture of what, but Jaime's suit looks pretty clunky. Booster Gold's costume looks like it could be slightly better. I just hope they write them right.
