September 30, 2011 5:27 pm During this relaunch, I have heard many different opinions of what "new reader" really wants. Usually from hardcore comic book people. I just though I would give my take on it. Before this new 52, I had only read a few trades, and this is the first time I'm trying out issues, since I can do it digitally, otherwise, I would have never done it. I don't know if this makes me a new reader or not, but I probably would have given up on comics all together if it had not been for this relaunch. I have really enjoyed the new 52. I have tried 12-13 of the new issues, and I am probably going to stick with 5-6. Several book, did not assume that you came with the emotional baggage of reading previous issues or superhero comics in general. I had problems with others, but not the reasons that are typically mentioned. For instance, I did find the narrative in Superman #1 annoying and dense, but it actually used that space to get all the introduction to the character and his world, and made me care about a "Superman fights spacething" story, which surprised me. On the other hand, Aquaman was probably much better written, but do they really expect that telling me "Aquaman is not as lame as you think" and "you should care about him because he has daddy issues" (like EVERY superhero) is enough to get me back for next issue? And I have much bigger problems with team books assuming that getting the name and the power of each character into some dialog box is enough to make me care than I have with Batman saying "I am the night".

August 16, 2011 10:54 am Really nice new design! It feels much cleaner. Just a suggestion, but now that you have more space on that top red banner, how about eventually making a "Writers" page? So, if you read something you like, you can check out that particular writer's column from previous weeks without embarking on an expedition through the vast iFanboy archive.
