The latest news from DC is that as a special Blackest Night skip month treat, they're bringing several titles back from the dead. The titles:
I'm sure some of these will be complete misses (and I'm sure we can all agree on some of those predictions), but a new Ostrander Suicide Squad and a new Robinson Starman are worth the risk.

No Jack Knight in the new issue of Starman, though.
Although this is the kind of thing that can get my attention at just a glance, taking time for more of a straight-on gaze makes me realize that I'm not really interested in Blackest Night specials disguised as comic series I used to enjoy.
Another thought makes me wonder if the artists might kick one or two of them over to the interesting side of the spectrum, but then I realized if they were using artists capable of that, they would've announced it.
As a dedicated wait-for-the-trader, I'm less than enthused about a bunch of random books that will have no convenient home when the collection happens. (Although the one I'm most interested in, the Suicide Squad one, will probably naturally slot into the Secret Six trades, most of the others may end up orphans...)
The Suicide Squad one actually ends on a cliffhanger to that month's issue of Secret Six (co-written by Ostrander), so slotting into the trade would be very likely.
