August 26, 2011 1:06 pm I read only DC; partly because I grew up with the characters, partly because Marvel gave me manditory crossover fatigue. But mostly it has nothing to do with that and everything to do with my budget. It's cheaper for me to get DC than Marvel. I'm not opposed to Marvel, I love their characters and I think Stan Lee is the most brilliant comic book figure besides Jack Kirby but it's too expensive and the latest storylines have turned me off. I still love the movies and read tradebacks though.
July 13, 2011 9:32 am This is all well and good, but if he's the main character I am going to be much less keen on the whole DCnU idea.

June 30, 2011 4:18 pm If your number one answer isn't put on a costume and fight crime, you're doing it wrong. And if your second answer isn't see what happens when you create a time paradox, you're not having enough fun.

I'm glad Manapul is on this, but I still think he's going to have to work very hard to top John's run.
June 17, 2011 7:26 pm Disappointed. Piss-poor characterization. Halfway through the movie everyone's character just changes, with no actual development. They just somehow grow new personalities. Not to metion the hatchet job on Parallax, Krona, and most of the mythos of how the Green Lanterns were formed. Hopefully they'll reboot it and actually think about the screenplay, screenwriters, and cast. 

It wasn't terrible, but come on. They had GREEN LANTERN to work with. Cops in space that can do whatever the hell they want as long as they can imagine it and not wet their pants. They have fantastic source material, they just didn't put it to use well.
