Hi, guys!
I wanted to wait a year before checking out the storylines of the "New 52". Now that we are well into it, if I could read ONLY 3 titles, what would they be, and why (I still have a ton of backlogged reading as well)?
Since I don't know much about the new 52, I suppose I will list some of my fave titles from the past:
Quantum and Woody Giffen / DeMatties Justice League Judd Winnick's Exiles Resurrection Man Judo Girl The Tick Thief of Thieves Chew Kirkman's Marvel Zombies
Thanks, everyone!
Best,
Brett

Honestly? Judging by what you've listed as your favorite stories ... none of them.
Detective has been pretty good. Batman started off strong, but I personally didn't really care for the whole Owls story. Justice League was pretty decent, for yet another "origin" story. And if you don't mind that Azzarello completely destroyed the W.W. origin, Wonder Woman was pretty good.

I personally haven't read any but from I heard from the guys @ my LCS Detective comics is supposed to be good.

For me, it's the 3 Green Lantern titles. And that's because Geoff Johns is an awesome writer, and the books stayed relatively unchanged for New 52. The one glaring exception being that they changed Guy Gardner's origin (not surprising since none of the New 52 characters have any idea that Crisis on Infinite Earths ever even happened). ***CHECK OUT MY COMIC TRADING LIST, CLICK HERE******TRADE VIDEO GAMES WITH ME, CLICK HERE******TRADE COMIC CARDS WITH ME, CLICK HERE***Make sure that you read and understand the forum rules here

If I could only pick up 3 titles in the New 52, it would probably be Demon Knights, StormWatch, and Legion of Super-Heroes.
Other books that have been outstanding include the already mentioned Wonder Woman, Batman, and Green Lantern. I've also enjoyed Superman and DC Universe Presents quite a bit.

I've found The Flash to be a pretty good read.
Also, its only in its early stages, but Phantom Stranger is kicking all kinds of mental butt for me.
Batman, green lantern... I'm not fully caught up on justice league, but up to issue 6 i can vouch for...
