You're right Viktorr...it's the 70's EVEN BETTER. I didn't notice "Hair" and wasn't sure about the timing on Pan Am. This could afford a few chuckles.
Cya, slysally
I like this Batman. A friend of mine can't stand it, he thinks that it's not the "real" Batman. To that I say "GET OUT OF YOUR BOX, if not the world is going to be hard on you." I digress...this Batman is gritty and funny. I like that he is inturpreted differently, if they all wrote Batman the same why would you ever need to by another book? Plus when characters change or become more than what you expect, it makes them human and entertaining. AND this art is Soooooo goooood.
I agree with SmokMnky "Honestly this book is like driving down the freeway and seeing a car flipped over and on fire. I know its horrible and I hope everyone is ok but I just can't help the fact that I slow down and look.
I just can't look away!"
This has to be one of the best consistant comics in print right now. Even on it's "bad" issues it's still good. It's on my top 5, along with Fell, Umbrella Academy (sad it's over), New Avengers, and Green Arrow/Black Canary.
the dialoge is straight from a Superfriends episode.
I'm dropping it.
I'm loving this run, time travel to Camelot and now they drop Doom and Ironman in the 80's, huge splash pages with great art there's great potential and Bendis can deleiver. And yeah there have been slow spots previously but it's picking up now. The New Avengers is actually my favorite team of the two but this is gearing up for a great story arc in two time deminsions. I think people just need to enjoy it and see where it's going. No need to rush, don't be like some kid on Christmas counting down days until the "skrull invasion". The reveal is coming to but let this story run and when the curtain is lifted it might just surprise ya.
The struggle between Doom and Tony was great, I agree with iFanboy...loved the suit comparison.
Hmmm, I'm buying this book because I want to believe. I want to believe that this book will get better, but for now it still isn't there. I agree with TehDave, JJJ was HORRIBLE looking, the art...not so much, the story...it's trying. We'll see.
