March 10, 2009 9:46 pm I am definitely with Quinn. I hate Quitely's art. That Batman & Robin preview art not only convinced me that Damien is the next Robin, but that I'll be dropping the Batbooks because Damien + Quitely = No $ From Me.
March 10, 2009 12:04 am As a friend of mine (who is a HUGE Nightcrawler fan) pointed out: Since when did redundant powers keep you out of the X-Men? Heck, Storm led the X-Men WITHOUT powers. Pixie's a better teleporter? Yay! Can she fight with a sword, does she have years of experience both as a leader and as a superhero, and does she have the same kind of spiritual grounding of Nightcrawler? So the premise seems shaky here.
I thought this was quite good.
That said, the impending creative teams - all of them - have me convinced to drop the BatBooks at the end.
Wait...Morrison is on Batman & Robin? Then that basically locks Damien in as Robin.
UGH.
I HATE Damien. A Metric ton. I hate him more than any character I have EVER read in any comic EVER.
