Last week at ComicsPro, the trade organization of comic book retailers:

DC will not be including "WTF" branding on the front or inside covers of their April shipping titles. "WTF" is DC's April New 52-wide marketing event in which every gatefold-covered title that month has been purported to "leave readers in a state of shock." ... according again to a retailer in attendance, co-publisher Dan DiDio said that the "WTF" branding would not be used "because we don't need it." DiDio went on to say that the books have attracted attention from the marketplace already, and that retailers and readers are now aware of the significance of the gatefold covers.
