Yeah DC tends to get over looked here... and to be fair, I'm very very guilty of that... so what is everyone's favourite current DC title?
At the minute I love:
Detective Comics is only good when Dini is writing, other times its's pointless filler.
Robin is great. It's a shame that it's one of DC's lowest selling titles and that Adam Beechen is leaving the book soon.
The only other title I'm getting is Countdown which is pretty good. I dropped Action Comics and Wonder Woman due to delays. I'll be getting the Black Adam mini.
Yeah, compared to my Marvel purchases I hardly get any but it's a start. A few years ago I was getting no DC titles.
So what are your top DC books?

I read both evenly, but I can rarely ever get discussion on DC unfortunately.
Right now my favorite series is Justice Society of America. Every issue of the new run has been amazing so far.
But my all-time favorite is Batman of course.
But I regularly read Batman, Detective, Superman, Action, JLA, JSA, Countdown, Flash, and a few others.
And Crimson, Wonder Woman has been coming out fairly regularly lately.

I'm burned out on WW for a while now, which is unfortunate for the new writer.

Nightwing...Marv has almost completely restored the crap that Bruce Jones did last year.

Nightwing...Marv has almost completely restored the crap that Bruce Jones did last year. Has that actually improved then? I heard people cokmplaining about that book so much it put me off trying it. If it's gotten better I might try an issue... the Bat books have really struck a cord with me.

If it's gotten better I might try an issue... the Bat books have really struck a cord with me. Nightwing still really sucks and I have no idea why I am stil reading it. Catwoman has been an amazing comic that I have really been enjoying. Batman and Detective comics are still my favorites (yes, sometimes detecive is a little shaky compared to Batman). Robin has been good, The art is good except for how big of heads Williams give people. Anyone else notice that? All star Batman has really good art and that's about it. Batman confidential has sucked so far. Superman Confidential has been amazing. Countdown is confusing because they are using odds and ends from all different titles and have no explanation for those who have not read them. I could follow 52 without knowing everyone's history but it is not the same with Countdown. Brave and the Bold has been so so. I think those are all the dc titles I am reading right now, it seems like there are more but I can't think of them.

Nightwing doesn't still "really suck". It just took a few issues for Marv Wolfman to erase the crap that was written before him.
The first two issues of the new story arc have been utterly fantastic.
But, you saying that Detective is more hit and miss than Batman says a lot. Personally, Dini's run on Detective has been one of the better runs in the last few months of any DC title. I find Batman to be kind of drab at times. I like the one shots better.

Green Lantern. Whether it's Pacheco, Van Sciver, or Reis, it's amazing art. And Hal's an amazing character, especially with the Sinestro Corps now.

If it wasn't for him, I'd definitely prefer Marvel.

I read Titans, Robin, Aquaman, Flash and I think that's it. I can't afford everything I'd like to read, like Nightwing and Outsiders. Robin is definitely my favorite, but I'm partial to that book for he is my favorite superhero.
