Outsiders -- Winick is using some of the classic Titans villains -- Mallah and the Brain wre part of the Brotherhood of Evil (no, really) and the cult was devoted to Brother Blood, megalomaniac and generally fun guy. You can find more info on them here: http://titanstower.com/index.html
Superman/Batman -- I concede it's fun. :) And I'm all for suspension of belief in comic plots, but these particular hiccups--gah. I'm hoping everyone's mind controlled or something. ;)
Wolverine -- Will pick it up when it's collected, but not at all surprised to read there's a strong female protagonist; Rucka's trademark.
WW-- Diana's book is sort of a "Diana's commentary on everything" nonfiction thing, her views on social/political/economic issues. So she's guarenteed to piss everyone off somehow. :D
You know, one would have hoped that maybe they'd outgrown "Mallah and the Brain" once they're not kid sidekicks anymore. Okay so they mock them, but I don't know, I can only stand so much ridiculousness in villains unless it's parody. I don't know what exactly triggers this, but I think I can go along well with "scary wacky" even if the villains were utterly ridiculous if you thought about them in a real world frame of reference, but not with villains that are just trashy.
