- DC is starting to reveal information about this. There will be four new series coming out which means four cancellations. They have already stated that JLI will be cancelled but the other three series have not been revealed yet.
Here are the solicits for the new series:
TALON - Writer Scott Snyder with co-writer James Tynion IV. Artist: Guillem March.
Meet Calvin Rose, the only Talon to ever escape the grasp of the Court of Owls. This former assassin of the Court is trying to live a normal life ... but that’s impossible when he’s being hunted by his former masters!
SWORD OF SORCERY – Writer: Christy Marx. Artist: Aaron Lopresti.
Featuring the return of Amethyst, Amy Winston leads a strange life on the road with her mother and resents it. She’s about to learn it’s all been necessary when she discovers she’s the lost princess of Gemworld—and she’s being hunted by her murderous aunt. With a back-up story written by Tony Bedard with art by Jesus Saiz, set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, the monstrous warrior Beowulf is charged with finding and defeating the evil Grendel.
THE PHANTOM STRANGER - Writer: Dan DiDio. Artist: Brent Anderson.
Spinning out of his recent appearances in JUSTICE LEAGUE and DC’s Free Comic Book Day story, learn more about the true origin of The Phantom Stranger and his connection to the mysterious Pandora.
TEAM SEVEN - Writer: Justin Jordan. Artist: Jesus Merino.
Set in the early days of DC COMICS-THE NEW 52, threads of the entire DC Universe collide. As Superman emerges, so does the world’s counter measures against him and his kind. Team 7 is comprised of Dinah Lance, Amanda Waller, Steve Trevor, John Lynch, Alex Fairchild, Cole Cash, Slade Wilson — and their story will change everything you know about DC COMICS-THE NEW 52.

- Scott Synder has said he is only co-plotting the book, not writing Talon: https://twitter.com/#!/Ssnyder1835
I'll probably pick up Phantom Stranger if it involves Pandora and that stuff. Otherwise I can skip the rest.

- Well Captain Atom, finally, has got the axe I guess:
CAPTAIN ATOM #0
Written by J.T. Krul, art and cover by Freddie Williams II.
Final issue. Captain Nathaniel Adam volunteers for a dangerous experiment that will make him one of the most powerful heroes in the DC Universe! How much can man lose before he is no longer human?
32 pages, $2.99, in stores on Sept. 19.
Solicits for Justice League titles are up:

Now what's next? I've read Liefeld is safe, so maybe Voodoo or Blue Beetle? It's very weird to have an origin tale be the last issue.

- Resurrection Man is my favorite character and my favorite DC book so this really me off that they got rid of it
There are books selling worse than Resurrection Man so why get rid of it?
All that I am hoping for now is that maybe he joins the Justice League Dark (Since he was a very short term member of the Justice League before during his first series)

Could be trade sales, or expectations weren't met, or they're willing to give the Liefeld books a little more time. I'm just glad I, Vampire got by .... that one may get by because of the subject matter. Res. Man was basically competing in the superhero arena and wasn't selling well, whereas I, Vampire is competing in the specialty genre so to speak.
BUT, I think they should axe the Liefeld books.
