Scruffy

October 5, 2011 4:21 pm Last issue was great but this was a bit of a disappointment. The art was much less impressive and the writing didn't seem as strong either. Don't know if I want to stick with it any longer.

October 5, 2011 4:18 pm Wow. This was even better than the first issue. I really like how there's a little bit of humor mixed in with the horror.

October 5, 2011 4:15 pm This was a good improvement on issue #1. Characters are starting to come in to focus. Glad to see it's going in a very sic fi direction. Good stuff.

September 13, 2011 6:42 am The DC relaunch has me more excited about mainstream comics than I've been in quite some time. Some of these books have generated a level of excitement in me that I haven't felt since I first started reading Marvel and DC and the best one's feel more like independent comics. The move to a digital format has been a positive one for me. I have dropped every comic which isn't released same day digitally which is most of Marvel and dropping those books has been surprisingly easy. It's made me realise which books are really worth reading. Someone said earlier that they are not tired of comics they're tired of Marvel comics. I think that is true for me too and I didn't realise that until I stopped buying most of them. It's not that Marvel aren't doing good comics, they are but they just seem to be telling the same kind of stories that they have been for a while now. DC on the other hand now have a lot of variety in their line and that has me feeling excited for mainstream comics again.

September 8, 2011 3:43 pm I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I'm not usually a fan of Liefeld's art but I was okay with it here. Sterling Gates writes well although I would have liked to see the backstory told in a more organic way rather than just a monologue. Still I'll be back next month.

September 7, 2011 5:33 pm I'm not sure about the midnighter redesign either though.

September 7, 2011 5:32 pm Lots of fun. Full of high concept sic fi ideas, the kind of thing Paul Cornell does best.

September 7, 2011 5:30 pm Wow. This is a real leap forward for Tony Daniel as a writer. I really wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did.

September 7, 2011 5:28 pm The biggest disappointment of the dc relaunch so far. The art was ok but the writing is just bad. Such a waisted opportunity.

September 7, 2011 5:25 pm Really impressive. No one writes Barbara Gordon better than Gail Simone. A great first issue, feels like it could be the start of something pretty special.
