Default DC has a full reboot coming!
Not for just one or two characters, either. The entire DC Universe is going to be rebooted as of this September.

In September, comic fans will be the recipients of 52 #1 issues as the entire line of DC Universe titles gets a relaunch. Everyone from Superman to Booster Gold will be getting a revamp, which includes redesigns and a "younger" continuity.
Still trying to find a list of books and characters, but here's hoping they don't get rid of anything.

A total of 50 costumes are being redesigned, supposedly. I honestly don't have a huge problem with this, so long as they don't something silly like bring back the black suited Superman.

And they are free to do that if they want, but they more than likely won't. They aren't doing a full 100% revamp of everything, they're turning the clock back several years to bring the characters more in-line with a modern audience. On a side note, Lex has been good before in various Elseworld books. It flows better than you'd expect.

It's possible they're doing this to make Comic books more appealing to a wider audience.

Changing the costumes would be a start in doing that as it might be easier to relate to characters that don't look like a pack of skittles.

It's been needed for a while. The stories have become so complex and mixed together that it is very hard for those that are just getting into comics to follow the lore. This gives DC a chance to capture a new generation of comic book readers, while fixing issues they have had a problem with, and making the heroes more relevant to issues and concept for today.

Are we losing our characters or just having the whole world changed and get to keep the character?
