July 2, 2012 2:17 pm Wow, what a week. That Justice League book is really fun, while that Alias story with Purple Man is an all-time favorite.
June 11, 2012 3:42 pm I read a ridiculous amount of books back then, yet I picked up none of these. I have no idea what that means.
May 21, 2012 2:11 pm That Winnick Green Arrow run was excellent, especially those first 20 or so issues.
April 9, 2012 2:39 pm @Ken - I have and enjoyed it too.
April 9, 2012 2:22 pm Was at the height of my fandom around this time, eating up everything. This week's a fine example; was very into Sentinel, that Batgirl mini is an all-time favorite, along with Alias, which would be on my desert island collection.
February 3, 2012 6:28 pm They have the right to make it, I have the right not to read it. I hope everyone likes it, I'd be surprised if it's anything less than adequate. I just don't have interest. I understand the Superman analogy, it just doesn't sit with me as that is a character/universe that has been expanded upon and written by others since the beginning basically. Watchmen is so self-contained and is its own story. Just as I wouldn't want to watch a Taxi Driver movie not associated with Schrader or Scorsese, read a Harry Potter book by someone other than Rowling or flip through anyone other than Robinson on Box Office Poison. This isn't to say you or anyone else shouldn't do so. I just choose not to.
