February 1, 2012 10:50 am I'm looking at this from the perspective of we're hopefully getting more great content from really great creators (jury's inconclusive on JMS though). I don't get the logic of how this taints the original story. Did Dark Knight Strikes Again make the original Miller story look terrible? Absolutely not. I'm on board with this.

January 31, 2012 1:00 pm It was a REALLY slow burn for me as Milligan was writing JLD. That being said, Lemire on JLD next has me bouncing off walls in excitement. You can really see how much DC is putting trust in him and Snyder to help lead the direction of the new DCU.

January 30, 2012 3:56 pm Story was average at best for me. I guess I'm not as up to speed on the Captain Britain Corps as others are. Art definitely did not do it for me. I may give this one more shot and if it doesn't gel with me, I'll give this arc a skip.

January 18, 2012 11:40 pm This was simply amazing to read. I give Scott Snyder lots of props for everything he writes lately, but extra, extra props to Greg Capullo. His art almost screamed Frank Miller-style in DKR in this issue. It showcased how gritty this was getting and how Batman is losing control. Kudos all around.

January 3, 2012 11:32 am This is the year I start cutting back. Much as I love you, comics, you're getting too expensive. Sucks too because there's good stuff this week, but I'll still get my fill of Animal Man, Swamp Thing, and Brian Wood's take on Wolverine & The X-Men. BQ: Drawing like a madman. I've put it off for far too long and I'm anxiously waiting to sign up for the intro course on Comics Experience. I will not break that resolution - don't curse me! :)

December 27, 2011 12:17 pm @Conor I think "new" just needs to be clarified more. If we're talking top ten #1's of the year, that's fine. Otherwise, I think it's safe to say that Batman is not new to anybody here.

December 27, 2011 11:20 am I guess we're defining new by if it had a #1 on its cover this year. Otherwise, much as I loved the books, I'd throw Batman, Action Comics, and Daredevil off this list. I have to give I, Vampire some love here. I thought I'd be fine with just one true vampire comic in American Vampire, but then this changed my mind.

December 23, 2011 9:45 am That Fables cover made my jaw drop. Say what you want about the quality of the book nowdays, but this series keeps cranking out excellent covers at least.

December 22, 2011 1:31 pm I'm giving Skullkickers some love here too for top fantasy book. Dwarf and human collect bounties and drink beer. Simple and fun for me.

December 22, 2011 9:23 am iFanboys, I know the holidays are fast approaching, but would love to get one more POTW podcast out of you guys. So much great content this week between Daredevil, Batman, Batman Inc., Uncanny X-Force, and Wolverine and the X-Men. I'm officially declaring "comics" my POTW :-)
