I watched all the interviews from last week about Rebirth, some of it sounds positive and interesting, but not to the point that I'll buy any comics again, but I'm curious for those paying attention, who do you think that hand belongs to on the cover of Rebirth?

That hand is Jim Lee's. Pulling them from the frying pan into the fire.

Can't be Jim Lee's it would have all kinds of weird, senseless piping on it.

So is anyone biting? I thought about it but I'm worried about how much it could suck. Not sure why they still needed slight costume changes and sans speedos. Instead Batman has a piped codpiece looking sort of deal.

I cannot speak to Rebirth, but Future Quest #1 was one of the best comic books I have read in years. Totally captured the flavour of Hanna Barbera action cartoons--I could almost hear the Hoyt Curtin music playing as I read it.

Rebirth just got really interesting with the massive epic spoiler for the whole thing. Actually, there's the huge spoiler, and then a series of aftershocks to it, each more intriguing than the last.
That hand reaching out is from someone we ALL know....

Yeah, was just coming here to post but Ken beat me to it. I don't buy comics anymore so I couldn't resist the spoilers. I won't say anything else, but it sounds promising, certainly something I would've never expected, and if nothing else, I'm sure will garner a lot of conversation. Anything looking to restore history and the future is a step in the right direction.

It's a real swerve, and once I read about it, I smiled.
Because.........y'know........it's logical and it fits the INTERNAL logic of DC, and it sets up intrigue. I'm all for that because it doesn't necessarily wipe out stories.....it ADDS to them. That is a good thing, I think.
