This is indeed a subtle book. So much so that, I’m ashamed to say, I didn’t see quite how layered…

I was going to say something about how the new writers don't wave OMD/BND in our faces like Slott does, but I just noticed on the bottom left corner of the page with Gargan sitting in the chair, talking to the prostitute... well, look for yourselves.
I don't consider that waving it in our faces, but that's a pretty funny easter egg.
Deadpool - Ron was much kinder than I would have been. Daniel Way is straight-up awful, and Pool-O-Vision makes me rage. I love Deadpool, but this is not my Deadpool.
Locke and Key - Actually never heard of it. Doesn't sound like my cup of tea, though.
Secret Six - One of my favorite books, so... I don't know. It really does sound kind of silly when you explain it, but I think it's one of the best DC books. The only better ones are the Green Lantern titles. But issue 9, I think, is the best of the series.
I guess you guys wouldn't have liked Incredible Hercules (my vote) either, because I like it because it has the same jokiness as Secret Six.
@Conor So the New Avengers cover that showed a battle with the Dark Avengers, where the issue featured a battle with The Hood's jobbers was a metaphor, too?
Actually, I guess it could be, but that's the kind of shenanigans I was referring to.
