March 8, 2010 2:47 pm @NawidA The justification I recall hearing is they're not in the solicits because they're more likely to change and changing a name in the solicit requires an announcement from Diamond and that means retailers can change their orders. I'll guess it has something to do with that. That, and just you know, because it's never been that way.

November 3, 2009 3:49 am @TNC I always love it when people blame Didio for parts of the business he has nothing to do with. Trades are Bob Wayne's job, ask him why this is supposed to make sense.

August 28, 2009 2:59 am Riddler is the secret best Batman character, and this was the secret best Batman book to come out this week. Even if the actual best was Batman and Robin.

August 26, 2009 2:01 am @robbydzwonar Uh, it took me like two minutes to find the Batmobile. The little pointy bit on the bat icon on the map is the direction you're facing. You don't really need cardinal directions. Particularly since in that part you were supposed to be following Gordon's tobacco trail anyways.

August 26, 2009 1:41 am They didn't "boot" Kunkel, he's still the series' regular creator. It's just that there will be more fill-in issues than regular issues. Looking at his issues, I could definitely put up with how long it takes him to do each one since he's pretty much doing them by himself and making comics isn't his day job, but I also understand the obvious need to have a Johnny DC title come out monthly.

I love Superboy-Prime so goddamn much. That and I like that Earth-Prime is back now, seeing as post-Crisis canonically speaking, our entire universe had been destroyed by a DC editorial decision. 

@robbydzwonar While admittedly he has little to do with the reprints program, Dan Didio has said numerous times that he sees his job as getting people to go to their comic book store every Wednesday. But if that's "some big scam", I'll take the bridge he's selling me.

August 10, 2009 7:19 pm Because that would cut into sales of the Absolute that's three times the price?

July 23, 2009 3:30 pm I almost had to make this my pick for the Monitor/Anti-Monitor pee joke alone.

July 8, 2009 6:10 pm So apparently the entire city of Toronto got short shipped and everybody (or at least the three stores I went to) sold out this morning. I usually buy my comics in the morning. Today I bought them in the afternoon. >:(
