Hmm, I'll probably check out Tiger and Bunny. And I think I may give Barrage a shot too.

I spy an error. "Restoration" should be released in 2013, not 2012.
And YAY for getting RKR!

Definitely grabbing Rurouni Kenshin Restoration, but T&B can wait till I've finally seen the anime, since it's not drawn by Katsura himself.

I will be buying two copies of this. One for myself, one for a gift. Awesome!

Nice! More Taiyo Matsumoto! And I'll have to check out the Tiger & Bunny mangas as well.

Nice to finally have more Taiyo Matsumoto! I would prefer Viz pick up Hanaotoko or Ping Pong, but I haven't read Sunny yet, so I'm cool with this.
And this...

... sells itself just with the mention of Inoue and Gaudi.

Yes! Tiger & Bunny was an unlicensed manga on my dream list of manga to be picked up for English print release! Now I just need to keep hoping some publishers will take notice of the others titles I'm holding out hope for. There's always that chance!
Of course they probably only picked up the Tiger & Bunny manga because the anime is so popular. Wonder what it would take for somebody to bring over Zetman, re-release the Guyver manga, and a few random others.
Barrage looks like it will be interesting. I'm not a big digital consumer of manga, but I'll be sure to check out the print edition.
Lastly; hurray for more Rurouni Kenshin and reissue D.Gray-Man and Dragon Ball!

So long as VIZ keeps releasing single issues too, I don't mind, but if more publishers opt for the 2-in-1 or 3-in-1 omnibus format, I'll be very sad. It's not that I don't love the value, and the quality is the same, but they're difficult to hold and thus read when they're so cumbersome.

That's true, and while they may do something special or unique with the covers (like they did with Death Note) they also do something dull and cheap (like they did with Fullmetal Alchemist and Kekkaishi).
I'm not a fan of the omnibus format... :/

They're doing another VIZBig run for Dragon Ball? I thought they already completed the three-in-ones for both DB and DBZ

I can only assume that they are doing the same 3in1s for d-gray man and DBZ as the horrible Naruto/bleach ones. they would be better off reprinting the vizbig DBZ as I think a couple are hard to find
