BATMAN #12
August 9, 2012 5:40 pm I don't mind her art specifically. The thing that bothered me is that the art kept changing. It made the story seem likes a series of back ups. And I think it is basically a series of backups. This is a 5 month story that could have been told 6 pages at a time. If you look back at the ratings and PotW percentages of the rest of the New 52 Snyder Batman's it's the lowest rated in terms of stars and second or third lowest in terms of PotW (Issue 3 had 0.0% PotW which I find a bit hard to believe and Issue 9 doesn't come up in the lineup).

SUICIDE SQUAD #12
August 9, 2012 10:05 am That's old news man. I hardly think a single character redesign merits the book being poor. It has had issues as it has tried to develop but overall I look forward to this book every single month.

BATMAN #12
August 9, 2012 7:13 am This was the most disappointing issue of Snyder's Batman. Next major storyline begins here? Hardly. A $4 story that should have been spaced out over 4 months in the backups. The art changes wildly from page to page as at least three people did art on it. As others have said sometimes it's dark and dangerous and then just jumps to a cartoony feel. I wish they would drop the book back down to 22 pages and not try and not waste my money on long fillers like this.

The Best of the Week in Panels – 07.25.2012
August 3, 2012 7:27 am Like many Lovecraft tales. ERB was writing at what would turn out to be the cusp for what is and isn't public domain. Some of his stories fell on the beneficial side of that line (for me anyway, meaning I can read it for free) and some did not (Like the majority of the John Carter series and Lovecraft's Cthulhu chronicles). I don't know why we as readers need to argue and debate this as we aren't the ones breaking the laws by reading them.

ALL-STAR WESTERN #11
July 27, 2012 12:11 am It's no longer a tie-in. It's Hex helping Tallulah. They're in Gotham. The Court of Owls is in Gotham.

July 23, 2012 4:42 pm Be sure to check out Superman Family Adventures by Art and Franco too. It's not Wonder Woman but it has the entire Superman Team in great family friendly stories.

DC COMICS PRESENTS: WONDER WOMAN ADVENTURES #1
July 23, 2012 3:27 pm Steve Vance and Paul Dini? Oh man I may have to check this out. Vance did some excellent work on Deadman back in the day, including a 5 piece mini called Dead Again that had Deadman helping out the souls of departed DC heroes on the way to the afterlife. Hal Jordan, Flash, Jason Todd, etc. It was great.
