Name: DING b@T

Bio: Thanks to DCs 'not a reboot' I have been introduced to the world of comic book reading. It's... interesting. Here I hope to type things out loud so that they make more sense to me. Because I'm discovering that there's penty of things in comic land that make me confused. Like Batman's ability to be in five places at once...

March 3, 2013 1:42 am Actually, that idea makes a lot of sense. But very similar to Pandora's story.
February 25, 2013 8:26 pm I love how the others are freaking out but Frank is completely unfazed. He's done this before. Invasive surgery is really no big deal for him.
February 21, 2013 6:40 pm My favourite part was how much Diggle was loving Felicity calling Ollie on all his crap. Then she starts calling them BOTH on their personal lives. Awkward funniness ensues because they cant be the stoic boys club anymore. Thought the Dodger was a bit flat though. Baltar is capable of so much more...
February 21, 2013 8:22 am Anybody else get the impression that this was a drop-in 'explanation' issue? It feels like Morrison asked for an extra issue because the audience was (quite clearly and across the board) lost so he had to pause and explain everything so the big finale actually made sense. If not, how would the series have ended if he DIDN'T have that extra issue?
February 14, 2013 5:35 am This was really funny. Which is surprising because DC doesn't really do funny anymore. Not unless it's followed by a decapitation or fridging. Artwork was creative too. The purple shadow fight was pretty cool.
February 7, 2013 5:25 am They do need to show an 'aftermath' scene showing the alive henchmen, maybe even something funny like in the hospital where the surgeons have become arrow wound experts or something. THere's just row after row of police-guarded hoods recovering in bed.
February 7, 2013 5:22 am Deathstroke is Australian!!! That made me LOL. As if we have an intelligence hit squad that awesome. "What about a sword? I like swords." Slade for the win :) It also makes me want to know who his partner was... As much as this isn't a perfect tv series episodes like this give me the same feeling of awesome I get when I watch the JSA and JLA episodes of Smallville - that moment where I actually geek-squee in a high pitched giggle the rest of the household can hear. I only did that several times in Smallville. Arrow is off to a good start.
January 25, 2013 9:38 pm I got the 'too cool for school' vibe as well. The book borders on breaking the fourth wall, like the author is winking at the audience or something because we're supposed to 'know' that this is the attitude heroes should always have. But considering I don't know the characters enough to identify with them or what they're doing I thought it was a bit much. That ending though - drama.

January 24, 2013 12:36 am This book is always a weird mix of the intriguing and the downright infuriating. The dialogue makes me want to tear it up sometimes.
