Roy William Harper The current Supergirl appeared in Batman/Superman. She is actually Superman's cousin who was sent to watch over baby Kal-El but was left wandering in space. All though there have been some hints that she was suppose to kill him. Hints? I think they've done everything except have her stab him in the heart with a rabid gerbil.

Connor Kent I was under the impression that title was out of continuity. stressed It's never been out of continuity, simply out of step.

Lucifer Morningstar Because right now she is a Super Slut with Super Incest Lesbian Slut powers. Not one of the original power sets, I can tell you that. Wait...what? Which of her family member's has she been making out with, and what powers?

Garth Ranzz Connor Kent I was under the impression that title was out of continuity. stressed It's never been out of continuity, simply out of step. Thats a severe understatement. That idiotic title has been one hundred yards out of the bounds of continuity several times over its run.

In the same comic she is mind-manipulated into making out with "Superman", who is actually a mind-wiped Ultraman.
It's still extremely skeevy and has pretty much been ignored since, thank goodness. The title has horrible pacing and writing and art issues still, though.

52 is fantastic. It's doing a magnificent job of reminding folks that an "event" comic doesn't need to involve the useless deaths of characters. It's a complex story that has unfolded beautifully and in surprising and satisfying ways. If Infinite Crisis showed us how shitty the DCU can be, 52 is showing us how wonderful it can be.
What I've read of Johns lately has been pretty good. His Teen Titans has been solid, and he's done a good job of repairing the damage Infinite Crisis did to it. It's not his first arcs, but it's good. I'll be curious to see how things go when he hands it over to the new writer in a few issues. JSA is balanced very well between drama and humor and he seems to be hitting the right notes, much like he did with his earliest issues of Teen Titans. I'm not reading his Superman book, but I've heard nothing but good things about it.
Blue Beetle is great, and I'm looking forward to jumping on board with Birds of Prey soon. Firestorm is excellent also, but is sadly being cancelled. I've always been a big fan of JLA: Classified and Dan Slott writing the JLA, yanno... swoon and stuff.

Querl Dox Lucifer refers to a fanservice scene in the comic where she was taking a shower naked while Power Girl talked to her and blocked out the naughty bits. Quote: In the same comic she is mind-manipulated into making out with "Superman", who is actually a mind-wiped Ultraman.

An' Ion is so powerful and badass now, Donna Troy flies across the universe to save him.
And Donna isn't Wonder Woman anymore. As of the latest issue of Wonder Woman, it's Circe. Every issue has had a different person take on the mantle. First it was Donna, then Hercules, now Circe. Next month I imagine it will be whatever Diana's equivalent in the League of Super-Pets was. Though Circe as WW is, at the least, a very intriguing idea.

52 has been really solid, especially considing the breakneck pace that they've been putting out the issues.
Johns is having very strong showings with 52, Teen Titans, Justice Society and I've heard good things about his work on Superman.
There was a bit in an interview with Johns as to Conner's death. Dedio wanted d**k Grayson dead in Infinite Crisis, this we know. Johns said 'no way' but they wanted someone major to get killed. Connor got offered up. Johns asn't happy with it since he really liked Connor, but that's, according to that interview, how it went down.
