March 19, 2012 3:16 pm I hope its better than the crap that is being published. Looks like they are going the Grell route, not the light hearted take of Smith, Meltzer or O'Neil. Hoping there's a bit of the old Ollie in there.

March 19, 2012 1:01 pm Very true, but I have bigger issues than that smh ending, one is Marcos To’s art. He's a fine draftsman yes, but he characters seem very similar in look. Moretti, the journalist Alessandro, and other men have the same build and facial features/hair, except that some have a beard or clean shaven. Hard to tell who's who at times. But then in issue 5 the Huntress commited murder. She killed am unarmed man. She killed the Chairman. When I read the ending of issue 5 I thought that it could have been a fake out, that the Huntress didn't really kill a defenseless man. But opening issue 6, it did clearly state that she did. And with us now knowing that this is Helena Wayne and not the Helena Bertinelli character, with Bertinelli I could maybe buy that she would commit cold blooded murder, not Helena Wayne. And that this is from the creator of the Huntress again makes me shake my head. I originally read the Helena Wayne series and bought the trade. Now I'm not against anti-heroes, I read the Punisher and love it, loved Kick Ass, but this is a big character change to Helena Wayne, Batman's daughter. It rang false and phoney as a moment, plus all of issue 6 seemed to have chopped off at the knees. A rush to finish it. So she kills the father and lets the son live? A bad ending to a promising book.

March 19, 2012 12:31 pm I thought it was very good except for some of overkill in the fight, all those knives in his back and then he falls backwards on them was a bit much. Kind of hard to see someone getting up from that.

March 6, 2012 8:46 pm You forget the sitcom Too Close For Comfort with Ted Knight. He was a comic creator.

March 6, 2012 8:40 pm Very true. What made the JSA unique was its legacy, and I know many readers younger than my 45 years thought that the book was cool, that some even loved Jay, Alan and Ted. If the issue was age and that World War II was over 60 years ago, you could have done what Smallville did. Place them about 30 years ago. I thought it was cool seeing sons and daughters pick up the legacy. I found Robinson's interview even more bewildering, that Earth 2 has that fuzzy 5 year time line too. DC. Give us an Earth that gives us the JSA we want.

March 5, 2012 9:16 pm You know the redesign in JL:Doom works, like an updated version from the Titans cartoon. The Jim Lee design is just awful. Too much stuff going on.

March 5, 2012 9:09 pm I guess once The Pandora story hits we'll see what concepts stick.
