May 12, 2012 6:00 pm another part of my childhood slips way...Tony D was a gifted artist and his work on Jonah Hex makes me smile today 30 years later...RIP Tony, you will be missed
April 25, 2012 3:05 pm This and Aquaman are my two favorite DC books and I am glad this one has a good following. I can't wait to read this tomorrow...
April 25, 2012 3:03 pm I love this series and can't wait to read this issue
April 25, 2012 3:00 pm and i was laughing so hard my last sentence came out like gobleygook lol
April 25, 2012 2:59 pm Ah Somewhat, I am going to enjoy sparring with you... We obviously must have read different issues. The first six I read were anything but excellent. Johns seems to be on autopilot, characters are stereotypes, Darkseid was handled wrong, the layouts seemed to be swipes from earlier Jim Lee work... but besides that, I agree with you, the first six issues were excellent... As a longtime collector and reader and collector this series has been a joke....
April 21, 2012 10:43 pm Portacio's art has been on auto pilot lately. I have never been a big fan of his, and his Hulk work shows why he has always underwhelmed me...lazy storytelling, shoddy layouts and an ability to bore on the page I haven't felt since late 80's Marvel.
April 21, 2012 9:28 am i would say that the first six issues were an endurance test for sure, and number seven kind of feels like you came into a foreign film halfway thru. I am shocked that the flagship standard for the DCU is such a mess...
April 12, 2012 6:45 pm well put...
April 12, 2012 6:44 pm @fLASH923 I use the name when I play guitar in my band onstage, and if it's good enough for you and Eddie, then it's good enough for me.. I am still scratching my head over him getting three books, and you don't know how relieved I am that I am not the only one scratching my head over the new DC in general. @RiletArmpit32 Thanks for the answers and I will try to go easier on my haterade, but being German it;s hard to do lol
April 12, 2012 4:01 pm Nah, you don't get off that easy...and no way are you wrong. You seemed to make be the most mature look at what was going on, and when someone who has been in the hobby over 40 years hears someone in there 22 years has something similar to say without resorting to childish tirades, I want to know why. See you being a fan for 22 years means you were there around the birth of Image, and Liefeld was one of the original seven and it seems like a lot of the hate he gets stems from people jumping on a bandwagon. I wanted someone with your experience to let me know if I am out of touch with my beloved hobby now. I will explain...I don't think you are wrong in anything you said, and you explained it beautifully. I think something is amiss with DC today too. Someone with half my time in the hobby agrees with me. I was thinking maybe i was not seeing these books as what they are...and they are now glorified video games on paper. And I apologize if that maturity thing came off at you, it was a jab toward the poeple on here who hate him for no reason except it's fun to hate on him, not you. Apology accepted?
