Try the new Catwoman, Justice League, and Batgirl titles as well. I only read them after being hounded by friends to check them out and I was very impressed.

A Catwoman #1 preview from a while back: http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/NuffSaid/news/?a=46760

And the new Penguin -- Pain and Prejudice miniseries is fantastic too.

I redid my subscription and get:

Action

Superboy

Supergirl

Superman

Batman in DC

The Dark Knight

Batman

DC Universe Online Legends(its a carry over from their old line, and is very damn good imo)

The Legend of Drizzt, a short comic run I think, so far its only on issue 4, and so far very uneventful.

I'm really thinking of jumping on the Green Lantern, Flash, Red Lantern bandwagon...but I will peruse them this coming Wednesday...more than likely I'll get Flash because he appears to cross over into The Dark Knight run(I think!).

eta:can't believe I forgot Justice League, thats going so/so storywise.

If not, go out and get it now xD. It is by far the best of the New 52 in my opinion.
