So Perez is writing one Superman book and Morrison is writing the other? And the two will intersect and connect I assume, so I guess the Perez thing is out.

HERE, thanks to iFanBoy, is a list of all of the titles with all of the creative teams, and most of the covers.

I love some Rags Morales art. Not sure about the little red cape, but the
rest of the image is pretty nifty.

No

We can't tell if he is even lifting that rock or leaning against it.

You DON'T like this image AT ALL.

Justice League International with Dan Jurgens and Aaron Lopresti sounds good, but most of the character line-up doesn't really excite me...

George Perez only writing Superman?

Now, that's just wrong. No matter how wrong that costume looks, we've been teased with a Perez cover. I would really have been there for Perez, even if he had to have an alternate penciler filling in now and then.

Ah, well. Money saved.

What's a Batwing and a Justice League Dark?  Nevermind, I don't want to know.

You're right Michael. I know and now wish I didn't.

 QUOTE:
After seeing these pics, 3 costumes for Superman, 2 for Superboy, I wonder if we are seeing multiple earth versions like Brian suggests instead of a shared universe.


I quite like that idea.  I would be nice to pick up some of these books, knowing that each creator would have a free hand to tell the kinds of stories he or she wants to tell, without constant interference.  For example, if I decide to pick up "Frankenstein, Agent of SHADE", I'm worried that six months from now, there's going to be some huge massive crossover where I'll be required to also purchase "Demon Knights", "Resurrection Man", "I Vampire", "Swamp Thing" and "Justice League Dark."    It would be nice if comics were more like television, where all the shows exist in their own little universes (and on the rare occasion when a crossover does occur, it really is special).   No other entertainment medium treats their fans with such contempt they way Marvel and DC do.

So with everything announced,  I guess it's official.  I'm going from 7 DCU books a month to 2 (the Legion books).  Maybe 3, if I end up giving Gail's Batgirl book a shot.  But after pissing and moaning about Babs' reversion from Oracle to Batgirl for the better part of a week, I'd feel like a hypocrite for doing so.  Kind of stupid to complain and then vote with your wallet to support, you know?

Either way, for their sake I hope DC is more successful with other readers. :-)
