I noticed that "Adventures of Superman" is in the Limited Series section. Is that a mistake? I thought it was one of the regular titles.

Superman mini series will be told through Adventures of Superman now. Does that answer your question?

Why not give Superman a second book in the Continuity section? Batman has two: Batman and Detective Comics. That way, Supes has two as well: Action Comics, and Superman.

Maybe we concetrate the superness in the two titles to just put it on one.

I have been disapointed in Action and Superman of late.

Charlie, I think Ron means the DCU versions of those titles. In which case, I'd have to agree with him.

I'd have to agree with DCU versions... Not that I'm one to talk about 'regular' title writing... but both books have been very sporadic. I mean how long did we have to wait for Johns and Donner to finish their first arc?

And don't get me started on how confusing 'Camelot falls' is... got to the point where I just don't care anymore.

Neither title has been that great in my opinion either. The Donner/Johns stuff is the most dissappointing.

I've been enjoying Adam Kubert's efforts (though I don't understand the lateness, he was always reliable on Uncanny) and Carlos Pacheo's art is always wonderful. But yeah, the writing leaves a bit to the imagination. Not that I'm not going to lap up the Action Comics Annual when it comes out. And I might pick up Return to Bizarro World in trade.

I can see why it isn't.. but Batman has two titles.. Big Blue is the foundation for what DCU is.... I think DC2 should emulate that.. but that's just my unsolicited opinion.
