Heres my thing with the Fourth World characters being (re-)introduced in the New 52 DCU: do you really trust the guys who have been in charge of this relaunch to do justice to these concepts and characters?

Cuz I don't.

Geoff Johns, I don't. Scott Snyder, Jeff Lemire, Matt Kindt and Grant Morrison I do.

Yeah, I don't doubt they have talent(seriously, I should have gotten into Matt Kindt's stuff much earlier than I did), it's just that they have a bad rep in terms of properly assigning that talent to books, that being why we have multible books on the shelf written by Scott Lobdell, and why, in a move ostensibly meant to revitalize the line, both Superman titles are written by people who have been working with DC for nigh on 30 years now, and in Morrison's case, by a writer who already did Superman better than most people, including himself, will be able to measure up to. These are the people who let Rob Leifeld into their relaunch, and seem to be dead set on keeping him there. It would be a miracle if they chose someone decent to bring back the Fourth World.
