Again, some DC titles are going up to 4 dollars
This Newsarama article begins by telling that DC's execs "clarify" their sales figures, but I can't seem to find any actual numbers of how many copies they sold.

The comics will go from 32 pages each to 40 pages, and they'll sell at $3.99, joining DC's other $3.99 comics: Justice League, Action Comics, All-Star Western and Men of War.Sounds like that relaunch isn't doing them enough business to keep the prices down.

- There's a "story reason" that Batman and Detective are adding pages, but that has yet to be announced.
- New "combo packs" (with both a print and digital version of the comic) are on the horizon for Green Lantern and Detective Comics, similar to those being offered for Justice League, Batman and Action Comics. The new Detective combo pack will be $4.99, while the new Green Lantern combo will be $3.99. Batman's combo pack will increase to $4.99.
