So far:
Some of these things are WEIRD. I'm completely confused what they're going for in Martian Manhunter, for instance. I didn't realize that Harley Quinn was QUITE such a Deadpool rip-off... I probably won't get either of those again. Bat-Mite was far less funny than I thought it would be. Bizzaro was decent, but I don't think I need to read the same jokes every month.
Prez was interesting, but seemed an awful lot like G-rated Transmet to me... jury is still out on that one. I might grab the trade after it's done.
Damian, Son of Batman seemed an OK platform to give him a solo book.. though I think I could do without the pet Man-Bat.
Got a couple more still to read (I got just about all the #1s thanks to the DCBS 75% off package).

While there are only a few books in the DC You offerings that I am interested in, I am excited about DC's direction with these titles. It appears to me that they will continue trying new things, and that means that SOME of their coming new ideas will be to my liking. I remain optimistic and excited.

I didn't care for Batmite but I love Bizzaro and I wish it wasn't just a miniseries. I think not loving the giant pet Manbat is like not loving Krypto, it's just pure fun so needless to say I love Son of Batman. I liked the art on Prez, and I'm interested enough to see where it goes and I liked the preview of Martian Manhunter but haven't tried the actual book yet, did that come out already?
Overall I think this was a good roll out.

Overall I think this was a good roll out. Maybe he'll grow on me, but he feels like a giant get out of jail free card to me. He wasn't used that way for the intro, though, so maybe it will work. I agree the art on Prez is really nice. I get stuff from DCBS, so I'm not sure exactly which week Martian Manhunter came out, but it's definitely out. I also agree that it's nice to see a variety of styles...for all that I've discussed how I like a solid, well connected universe, that's not what we get these days. If they're going to do different things, I'm glad to see them actually BE different in style and tone.

Nothing really grabbed me, but everybody will get to issue #2.
