Batman, by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo - Batman Inc. is no more. I am sad.

Detective Comics, by Tony Daniel - Okeydokey.

Batman and Robin, by Peter Tomasi and Pat Gleason - But we still have Damian. That's good.

Batman : The Dark Knight, by David Finch and Jay Fabok - Relaunching at #1 after two whole issues. Or is it going to be three?

Batwoman, by J.H. Williams III, Haden Blackman, and Amy Reeder - Finally.

Batgirl, by Gail Simone, Ardian Syaf, and Vicente Cifuentes - Odd that Barbara is Bat'girl' and Kate Kane gets to be Bat'woman'.

Catwoman, by Judd Winick and Guillem March - Meh.

Birds of Prey, by Duane Swierczynski and Jesus Saiz - Oh dear God, no. The writer, the costumes, the team line-up, the solicit/concept pitch, just - no. Gray Katana! Modest Canary! Inexplicable Ivy! Tattoo Gun Girl! You're showing too much arm there, T.G.G..

Wow. After the Green Lantern solicits, I was thinking I might basically keep buying what I was already getting, but this Bat line-up is pretty terribly disappointing.
