November 8, 2012 12:39 pm This would make an amazing John-Carpenter-in-his-prime movie. I loved this ish.

November 8, 2012 12:37 pm SPOILERS: Layman definitely had a neat idea about how Batman fights against Ivy's control and maybe he'll have a similarly fresh take on fighting Clayface but I am really starting to worry that he is going the Loeb route- just cram as many characters in as you can with little regard to whether or not it works. I still enjoy it but I would have been perfectly content to just have Penguin as the only brand name villain.

October 17, 2012 1:55 pm Okay. Finally, the Batman and Robin "Look, I'm a Bat" moment has a real contender for panel of the year. Bravo, Hawkeye team. Bravo. If you've read this ish, you know exactly which one I'm talking about.

October 16, 2012 12:40 pm I'm with you (although I don't mind the art). I can't really explain why I'm still reading this. It's like I am trying to convince myself to like it more than I do. Gonna give it one more issue then may cut my losses.

October 8, 2012 5:27 pm That cover probably does a pretty accurate job of conveying the type of insanity that we've seen in this series. I'm all in.

October 8, 2012 5:20 pm The preview pages were nice and creepy. Seems to be headed in a direction that I am very okay with.

October 5, 2012 12:28 pm Yeah, that issue was a cultural event for me and my friends.

October 5, 2012 12:27 pm I had been reading prior to this but the series that really turned me into a lifelong comics fan was X-Factor, specifically "Fall of the Mutants". Thank you, Simonson.

October 4, 2012 5:43 pm Great review. This series really is world building at it's finest.

October 3, 2012 1:16 pm "... you two are fighting each other?! this is not how avengers behave!" cap also has a pretty short memory.
