  1. Guess I’m the only one reading this…first two issues were quite interesting.  Have no clue where its going.

  2. no way…im reading the fuck…I SAY AGAIN…THE FUCK…out of this book. It’s been fantastic. I think the art is sketchie here and there, but i think the art will get better and better as the series continues. I love new characters and new universes!

    I heard this is a mini though…is that true?? It would be a bummer if it was.

  3. This is great.  It’s like if JLA was in Marvel, but w/o baggage or boundaries.

  4. Damn this is great, I wish Ron, Josh, and Conor would read this. @Fvckstick  I’m sad too, because apparently this is only five issues. So we won’t get much out of this. This could be a great ongoing, with all these superheroes living on past this, with the mystery of why it happened in the background. I would be very impressed with a superhero series that is actually interesting without fighting villains or saving the world.

  5. Loving this!  Might be my favorite read right now- this or S.H.I.E.L.D.
    art is fantastic

    needs more attention!!! 

  6. I read and really enjoyed issue #1. Didn’t remember to pre-order #2 and have yet to find a copy. This one is on pre-order. Here’s hoping I can find #2 soon.

  7. I’m reading it too. I really hope this ends up being a “volume 1” or sometihng to that effect.

  8. I’m hoping it is a on going series

  9. I think it a interesting idea, and I have a few theroys where it is going, but not proof it will. So I want to find out what happens.

  10. If this had come out about 8 months ago i would have bought it in issues, but somewhere between then and the release of this series I decided to start taking Image miniseries in trade format.  Sounds like I’ve been missing out, but it just makes me look forward to the trade even more!

  11. It would be nice if Diamond UK could pull their finger out and get issue 2 into UK stores.

  12. @jwaesch  Waiting for the trade is fine for Marvel or DC minis.  Those will eventually be collected.  W/ Image & other creator-owned-based publishers issue sales pay for the collection.  If there aren’t enough sales, it may not happen.

  13. I am really enjoying this series. I hope there will be more with these characters after this series.

  14. @PozrDu  While I’m not 100% sure, I feel Image has been doing well to collect most of their series, and I’m assuming this will be too.

  15. @PozrDu  you make a good point there, and it’s always a double-edged sword in making the choice to wait or buy singles, but recently, I’ve noticed that Image is really good about getting the trade released.  Another alternative to buying the issues one at a time is to sign up for a particular series at your LCS, let them pile up and then just buy them all at the same time and read it that way.  It’s like reading it like a trade, but still supporting the book monthly!

  16. Man, this series is fantastic! Every scene was great, from the migraines, to the multiple twists, to Sabre being delusional, Null playing video games, etc. Why is this only 5 issues! There has to be a really great payoff for this to be worth just being a miniseries.

  17. This series is guud.  Loving Image these days.
