January 15, 2013 9:32 pm First OMAC, now Frankenstein, and soon...I, Vampire. It seems everything that was interesting about the New 52 is withering away. With the strength of Image these days, standard super- hero fare is only going to get you so far. RIP to one of the good ones.
January 2, 2013 3:50 pm Lobdell is slowly starting to turn this title around. It's sad that it's taken close to a year to correct one of the biggest misfires of the New 52.
December 14, 2012 7:40 am So far, none of the first three issues have lived up to the zero issues promise. I'm out.
December 7, 2012 9:56 am Wonderful issue. Couldn't get enough. This is everything that I was hoping for out of a Grant Morrison Superman run!
November 30, 2012 10:08 am Totally agree on Dave Johnson. I still have the mid-90's Chain Gang War series holding a prized place in my longboxes thanks to the Dave Johnson interior art!
November 13, 2012 1:00 pm The real question, is will I ever be able to un-see that sexy Bob Hoskins picture?
November 13, 2012 8:22 am Whatever happened to the rule that Marvel NOW would be one #1 book a week for forty-some weeks? I always thought that seemed liked a missed opportunity to promote a line-wide rebranding, so I'm not surprised they're changing. BQ: This is probably stretching the rules of the question, but I would love to see exactly what Jesus did and didn't do. I'm an atheist who is fascinated by the role religion played in mankind's history. To see what truthfully did happen, and how it got spun by people of power over the years would be incredibly illuminating.
October 18, 2012 8:16 am 13 issues in, and this title still continues to entertain just enough to keep it on the reading list. I'm worried, however, that with Rocafort gone we're going to be treated with a slew of whatever artist is hanging around not doing anything else this month. Green's art was good, but I've been spoiled with Rocafort's lush visuals.
October 18, 2012 8:12 am Really impressed with Tony Daniel's art on this one. I think a stint as art only could do him some good. Excited about his upcoming Action Comics run now!
October 15, 2012 10:35 am No, it's happened before. Most notably with about half of the previous issues of Snyder and Capullo's Batman run. ...and Saga has managed to do it at least once.
