January 26, 2012 6:56 am As for the story itself: Good stuff! Lots of plot lines converging nicely here. I can't say the ending was a big shocker for me but I enjoyed it. I was hoping for a bit more of a surprise but the lead up to this conclusion was so great that I still loved the book. Not sure I completely buy Manuel's transformation either. But again, it was still fun to read so I can't fault it too much. If I had fun, that's the pint isn't it? My favorite part was when Patty realized what Barry means to her when she thought he might ave died. I got a bit of a case of the misty eyeballs during that scene.
January 25, 2012 8:36 pm I had the pleasure of interviewing Brian. Nice guy! And from the sound of it this book will continue to be solid for a good while yet.
January 21, 2012 9:13 am I love that Zeus' sleeping around has left all these demi gods peppered throughout the world. Prediction: Lennox hooks up with Zola by issue #9

January 20, 2012 2:19 pm @Kill: I think you should start at this issue right here.
January 20, 2012 2:16 pm Glad I tried this again. This is the true first issue in my eyes. I like the mythology and this new villain.
January 20, 2012 2:12 pm I like the book. I looked past the cleavage and found a fun story.
January 19, 2012 5:28 pm What the hell is with this passive aggressive sarcasm. I've worked in branding.People shit their pants about logos all the time and they see it in context and wish they had clean pants. I find it amusing that when the logo was first revealed every piled on. Now they see it in action and they're all: "Well, I guess I like it now". So I made a comment about it. Someone assumed I was bragging about this? Seriously? Well, let this be my turn. Wow.
January 19, 2012 5:13 pm I'm assuming you realize they got paid, not just for that but the whole kit right?
