November 1, 2010 3:30 pm I forgot to have my store drop this for me, so unless this issue is particularly interesting, it will be my last.

I'm excited for Action, Fantastic Four, and the return of Incognito. Secret Avengers and Zantanna are make-or-break issues for me this week.

I like Sweet Tarts and Bottle Caps, because they are candies you only really see around Halloween: they're a treat. Almond Joys and Pay Day bars, however, are always awful.

October 18, 2010 12:50 pm It's clear from this as well as the few costume designs we've seen that they are aiming for a more "sci-fi/space opera" that traditional superhero aesthetic, which I think makes more sense. Overall, I like it.

October 5, 2010 10:05 pm Two more issues. #29 is solicited for November with Amy Reeder on art duties. Given DC is trying to bring the Vertigo and DCU lines closer together, I'm surprised this was cancelled since it did a nice job of incorporating DC's magical characters (and even J'onn J'onzz) into it's stories. Oh well.

October 4, 2010 9:02 pm I'm gonna try to reserve judgment until I see the finished product, but the last thing a Superman movie needs is a bland nu-grunge soundtrack and slo-motion action scenes. Seriously, who thinks that slowing down action makes it more exciting? Alright, I'll bite my tounge and hope for the best...

July 12, 2010 5:01 pm This may be interesting, but Ross's stiff, elaborate art seems like the antithesis to Kirby's powerful and kinetic style.

June 16, 2010 12:27 pm I'm considering selling my well-worn paperbacks of this and picking it up in HC. Does anyone know if the issues are printed in chronological order like the paperbacks?

Not even Rucka's Question could save this mess. Drip. Drap. Dropped.

April 26, 2010 3:50 pm I'm going to give this a shot, but it doesn't look too promising. At least we still get Rucka writing The Question, right???

Nine books for me this week. It seems that all the Vertigo books I read (Madame Xanadu, Unknown Soldier, and Northlanders) always come out the same week. Not that I'm complaining, because they are all great books. Blackest Night, Batman and Robin, and Fantastic Four will be at the top of my stack, and I'll get to Flash: Rebirth after a quick re-reading of the previous 5 issues.

BQ: Biathlon. That way I'd be good at both skiin' and shootin'.
