July 25, 2013 7:44 pm I've noticed a genuine reticence in 'the community' to voice objection, when it comes to price-point. Well, as good as this issue may be, 20pp for $3.99 is beyond the pale. Especially when it comes down to 'the big two', wiry their advantage of economy of scale, that smaller publishers can never match. I'll sit back & buy it on ebay for about a dollar in six months' time.
July 22, 2013 7:37 pm Aquaman #22, Red Team #4, The Bounce #3, Lazarus #2 & Wild Blue Yonder #2. BQ : Utopia - broadcast in UK on C4 earlier this year. Highly recommended!
July 18, 2013 12:28 pm Nearly two years in, this title has proven to be consistently the best of the 'New 52' including subsequent phases. I suspect that Brian Azzarello's ability to keep DC Editorial at bay has an awful lot to do with this success.
July 15, 2013 2:22 pm Red Sonja #1, LSH #22 & Wonder Woman #22. Have dropped JLA #6 onwards as I'm opting out of the overpriced, under-paginated 'Trinity War'. BQ : Being selfish I'd say London (UK), but quite frankly San Diego deserve to hold onto it
July 9, 2013 11:16 am Perhaps odd choices at a glance, I have my own rationale; Dropped Justice League as I'm not happy with the price-point jump (see JLD), so opting out of Trinity War. The prospect of more tie-ins with Scott Snyder's Batman has put me off Batgirl. The backdrop to this is that I've dropped a swathe of DC titles over the past couple of months as overall, I'm dissatisfied with DC's editorial 'direction'. Although 'WF' is not great, it benefits from being Earth 2/JSA related. That particular 'legacy' is my comic book heroin.
July 8, 2013 7:24 pm East of West #4, Quantum & Woody #1 & World's Finest #14. Have dropped ' Justice League' & 'Batgirl'. BQ : A single toe.
July 1, 2013 4:46 pm Earth 2 #14, Batman Inc. #12, The Movement #3, 47 Ronin #5, Catalyst Comix #1, Mister X:Eviction #3, The Private Eye #3 & Uber #3. BQ: Hard winter rain with a biting wind that gnaws at one's very soul.
June 24, 2013 11:03 pm With 'Trinity War' kicking in, so does this new price-point. I too, am consequently dropping this title following this issue.
June 24, 2013 6:55 pm Fatale #15, Jupiter's Legacy #2, Lazarus #1, The Bounce #2, Uncanny #1, Aquaman #21, Justice League #21, & JLA #5. BQ: Trident Iceni Grand Tourer.
