Date: 2016-08-24 05:16 pm (UTC)Catwoman Election issue: Written by Meredith Finch (dear god, do I hope that's not a bad sign for a future Catwoman series), but it has the Prez backup in it.
Batman Annual: Features tons of big names, including Paul Dini!
DC Talent Special One-Shot: Tons of new writers getting a chance to write small stories featuring the DC characters. should be interesting.

Date: 2016-08-25 01:32 am (UTC)Also, nice work putting Mera in the forefront of stuff. Arthur's been on this philosopher-king kick lately, so it makes the active character role slot a cinch for Mera to fill.
Bat-dad versus Super-dad is good stuff, too. F*cking Damian better behave on this - last I remember, he's on 'haughty but mellow' mode now.
