Things I got out of the solicits and covers:
(there's more solicits minus cover art here)

- Batman is building an Iron Legion of Batmen (maybe clones?)
- Grayson is extremely similar to the Winter Soldier
- Martian Manhunter is evil
- Joker and Harley are getting married.
- Amanda Waller for president?
- Stephanie Brown as Batgirl (possibly)
- Detective Comics cover is homage to the Carmine Infantino pin-up

I just realised that the Batman clones idea is extremely similar to the story Scott Snyder did in Detective #27 earlier this year, which he said is in his continuity and is an idea he'd love to explore.

Thanks a bunch, dude!

Some of these sound good but some not so much. I want to know is this going to be canon. Will DC comics from now on take place in this future world or is it just more of a one shoot.

I wonder if the three girls Barbra will be leading is Stephanie, Carrie and Cassandra. It looks like Batman is rocking the power suit from the movie Elysium. Also if I'm not mistaken the Legion of Superheroes are from the future. So did they get sent back in time to help the Justice League?

Hopefully this makes the main page. That way more people can see this post from Staypuffed.

John Constantine in possession of the Helm of Fate?!? That's like giving the Hulk the Power Gem: You're not sure what's going to happen but you're pretty sure that it's going to be interesting.

Are these hologram covers or alternates? Holograms would be amazing. DC showing its comic dominance with art... While Marvel kicks our butts with movies... Ugh
