Doesn't seem to work for me. If they made it like Dick and Kara, it may be better seeing as they're considered the 1st son/daughter So basically, new World’s Finest is Dick and Mon-el… crap!

I wanna see how Kon-El interracts w/ the new members of the Superman family, and watching everyone deal w/ Dick becoming Batman is worth the price of admission as well. Hopefully it'll be done well..maybe even Geoff, Tomasi, or one of them can handle it. (Not Morrison, no offense but dn't think he's the right guy for the job on this one.)

You hit it on the head right there. The overwhelming mediocrity of Superman/Batman has seen a lot of readers jump ship and if they really think the story's worth telling, they probably don't want to risk a percentage of their potential audience not seeing it because it's in that title. @ Matthew – “I mean, I haven’t bought S/B since I dropped it around issue 15 or so, but is there some legitimate reason why this story can’t be done there?”

It seems that DC wants this story as a miniseries and not in the S/B books; DC's doing this for some people who aren't happy with into the current events happening in the mainstream comics (like me) and prefer stories outside continuity more, like S/B.
