I’m a sucker for “mundane sci-fi”, and this book really delivered a great introduction to a very cool premise. The…

June 18, 2013 8:06 pm @kingjoeg: Ah, yes. That makes a lot more sense. Good call.
June 18, 2013 1:13 pm I'm kind of in the same boat. I bought Robin Year One when it came out as four Prestige format issues -- since they're still in great shape, I'm hesitant to double dip just for the Batgirl story I've never read. If it were a hardcover, I might reconsider.
June 18, 2013 11:11 am You're also not the target audience, so... yeah. I can tell this isn't for me, but I can totally see younger elementary school-aged kids going nuts for this concept.
June 18, 2013 8:20 am Nah, it's probably a variation on DP7, which was one of the New Universe titles back in the 80s, like Star Brand and Nightmask.
June 15, 2013 10:26 am Here's how I read this situation: While Superman has had his powers since infancy, he was entirely self-taught for 33 years. He got the hang of flying pretty quickly, but I think that was because he was already familiar with his other abilities. Adding this new element wasn't too tricky. I credited Zod's level of control with his skills as a soldier. He's presumably been trained to be aware of his own body in an operational capacity, therefore he figures out what he's capable of pretty quickly.
June 8, 2013 5:47 pm It struck me like that at first too. But after a little thought, I think that maybe when she went in to Wanda's mind, Jean actually "lived" the Decimation event. I can imagine that might be a bit intense for a powerful, but largely-untrained telepath to handle. But beyond that, is any outburst from a teenager not at least a little annoying?
June 8, 2013 5:05 pm I'm not reading this book (saw the comment on the main page), but it's one of Mastermind's daughters running with Mystique. Not Jason Wyngarde himself. If that explains it.
June 8, 2013 9:45 am @Godzilla: That's Prodigy (depowered mutant that was featured in New X-Men a few years ago) on the Young Avengers cover.
June 8, 2013 9:43 am Dude gets books done on time, and many people buy them. I don't really get it either, but it's working for Marvel.
June 5, 2013 10:28 pm I don't think this ending was quite as definitive as GoT -- I could be wrong of course, but I'm hopeful that Nico's spell worked. And it was interesting to see Burchielli on something that isn't DMZ. He's not an artist I would have thought of for this book, but I thought his style worked pretty well here.
