Justice League #1 felt like a really good opening act. I mean that literally. Like it almost feels like it’s…

DC Histories: The DC Challenge
May 22, 2013 10:38 am If you read this as a sort of build up or companion to Crisis it make some sense in its craziness because reality would be breaking down all around them anyway so stuff is just getting weirder and weirder.

James Robinson Leaves EARTH 2 and DC Comics?
May 17, 2013 11:07 pm Funny enough, if you go through his timeline he asked Ron for his email because he had stuff he wanted to send to Image.

CANCELPOCALYPSE! DC Brings The Hammer Down on LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, THRESHOLD, DEMON KNIGHTS, & DIAL H
May 13, 2013 5:53 pm I'm sad to see Threshold and Demon Knights go because I was really hoping to see sci-fi and fantasy succeed at the Big 2. I'm sad to see Dial H cancelled because it was an "Old Vertigo" style book in the DCU and China Mievelle was building a relationship with DC Comics that could've been very beneficial to the company. I'm sad to see Legion get cancelled because its a franchise with a long, important history that is of the few ones they have ripe for a Green Lantern-level rebirth and re-popularization.
But my disappointment is not a good enough reason to keep books around if they're not making money.

May 12, 2013 7:32 pm If I buy something from the iFanboy Amazon set up and then return it for whatever reason do you lose the money you would've got?

Yes, Grant Morrison and Yanick Paquette Are Doing WONDER WOMAN: EARTH ONE
May 11, 2013 9:52 pm Morrison never really liked Wally I think. He has some quotes where he kinda implies that he was the pretender to Barry's place. Though his JLA run treated him pretty well so I don't know if that was seriously something he felt and got over once he had him where he wanted him or if he was just joking and it didn't come across.
‘It was great [...] I got to do the Flash. The real Flash, not this abomination that’s running around today. One of the most exciting moments of my entire life, believe it or not, was writing the sequence where Barry Allen presses his ring and the costume leaps out. When I wrote that I was sitting there all charged up with adrenalin. I suppose that just shows how sheltered a life I’ve led.’ - That was sometime around 2003 I think,

ABC Picks Up ‘Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ For Next Season
May 10, 2013 10:54 pm Chloe Bennet is also half-Asian. But that's still only 2/6 of the principle cast so far. Compare that to a show like Scandal which this will be sharing a network with. You can get greater diversity and it's not that hard.
And for some reason Asians "don't count" for a lot of people. Its a problem I had when the issues of diversity came up around the New 52. DC did a poor job getting more equitable representation but across the board it was people complaining that DC was all "white people" when more than a few books, including their biggest, were helmed by Asian-Americans.
A teacher explained it to me recently that race in America is framed almost exclusively through the struggle between whites and blacks and all other races are considered by how closely they're aligned with one of those two groups. Therefore Asians read as "White" and Latinos for instance read as "Black".

May 10, 2013 10:03 pm I've seen people calling him out it before but it's not a loud enough criticism. Zoe and Gunn aren't enough.

May 10, 2013 9:49 pm Have Dave Chappelle come in and do his Sam Jackson impersonation every time they need Fury.
I just realized that that might actually be more expensive than just having Jackson guest star.
