The 4 Least Looked Forward To DC Mini-Relaunch Titles Are The 4 I Am Most Looking Forward To

A bunch of comic fans were surveyed asking which of the DC books launching in June are they most looking forward to. Now bear in mind the publicity on these comics has been restricted to names, numbers, a few covers and whatever has sneaked out of the retailer roadshows. I understand that PR-based interviews arranged with a number of what are known at DC as "media outlet partner" sites have been embargoed throughout March.

Batman Beyond 71 45%
Bat-Mite 27 17%
Bizarro 30 19%
Black Canary 60 38%
Constantine: The Hellblazer 65 41%
Cyborg 83 53%
Dark Universe 55 35%
Green Lantern: Lost Army 46 29%
Doomed 12 8%
Earth 2: Society 48 31%
Dr. Fate 57 36%
Harley Quinn/Power Girl 28 18%
Justice League of America 76 48%
Justice League 3001 46 29%
Martian Manhunter 88 56%
Midnighter 37 24%
Mystic U 7 4%
Omega Men 19 12%
Prez 13 8%
Red Hood/Arsenal 60 38%
Robin, Son of Batman 79 50%
Section Eight 11 7%
Starfire 43 27%
We Are Robin 65 41%

But there are four that stick out as having less appeal than the others.

Prez by Mark Russell and Ben Caldwell. A teenage girl elected to the post of Presidency via Twitter with a very Grant Morrison era Doom Patrol feel.

doomed

Doomed by Scott Lobdell and Javier Fernandez. A teenager infected by Doomedness, transforming into a version of the creature that killed Superman.

Section Eight by Garth Ennis and John McCrea. The return of the stupidest superhero team ever from the pages of Hitman. And since this is a reboot, everyone who dies can be alive!

Mystic U by Alisa Kwitney and Mauricet. Hogwarts University, from Neil Gaiman collaborator and the Belgian artist for Spirou.

Which is a shame because they are probably the four titles I am most interested in. Maybe I can help do something about that.
