September 23, 2011 2:30 am I really wanted to like Blue Beetle, but this issue really didn't work. I like the Sci-Fi set-up and the art was serviceable, but there were way too many problem. It didn't feel fresh or new at all, it's the same Jaime we've seen before but not as witty or interesting. The Spanglish verged on insulting and really made all the characters very unlikable. I wanted this to do well and even considered giving it a second issue as I am doing with Captain Atom, but comparing this to Ultimate Spider-Man, it's clear how mediocre this is.

September 9, 2011 2:55 pm Really didn't like this issue, Tony Daniel's writing style is way too over the top and his phasing is just awkward to read, Batman wasn't Batman, the Joker wasn't Joker. The twist at the end was exciting, but ridiculous.

March 7, 2011 3:08 pm Picking up Guarding the Globe, Walking Dead, Ultimate Spider-Man and Justice Leage: Generation Lost Digitally, on 2 less than I'm picking up in paper.... day and date FTW

March 8, 2010 2:46 pm I'm personally excited for this news. Robinson has been good on Superman and Simone has been good on Wonder Woman, but I hope JMS can refresh both these characters and make their sales soar. I was starting to feel like for both Superman and Wonder Woman how I feel about the X-Men, being way too bogged down in its own minutia to be accessible or give us those WOW moments. DC did a good job with Batman by taking him out of the picture and giving Rucka and Morrison space and freedom to be original. With Morrison back on Batman with #700 (which has been all but announced), I hope he continues more in this new vain than it the RIP mess. Its interesting that Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman are all having anniversaries in June. Technically, Flash #3 could be renumbered #600 and Green Lantern #57 could be renumbered to #500 as well. Who knows?

August 27, 2009 2:28 pm DC actually has three renumbering opportunites comming in the next few months; Flash #600 follows from the #350 of the first ongoing series, the second series with Wally West recetly ended at issue #247, but remember this series included a #0 and a #1,000,000, leaving it currently at #599. It woul make sense to relaunch Flash after Rebirth with a #600. Wonder Woman had an original series going to #329, a second series ended with #226, this series had a #0 and #1,000,000, so at issue #43 of the current series they would renumber it to #600, this would happen in April 2010 if it continues to ship monthly. Green Lantern has a sightly more complicated renumbering opportunity; the first ongoing series would be the Golden Age Green Lantern Allan Scott's series which ran for #38 issues, I would include these as Flash and Wonder Woman include their Golden Age series in their numberings. The silver age Green Lantern Hal Jordan's series ended with #205 but continued to #224 under the Green Lantern Corps title. The next ongoing series lasted to issue #181 with a #0 and a #1,000,000. The current series would reach #500 with issue #55 in May 2010.
