March 27, 2013 5:06 pm Stunning issue. On the same plane of excellence as issues 1, 2, and 5. I'm sure that the last 3 will be nothing short of amazing.

March 27, 2013 4:56 pm And even if that happens, we're gifted with the ability to choose our own continuity. Xorn was always the real Magneto. Magneto is still dead. It's this good-guy Magneto who's the imposter!

March 27, 2013 4:52 pm I read Robin: Year One recently, and I LOVE how the mind-controlled "Alice's" correlate with Professor Pyg's dolls in Batman and Robin. Funny how Morrison gives that story so much more impact, which I predict he's gonna do to Dark Knight Returns when this is finished...

March 25, 2013 11:04 pm Exactly how Batman Inc. #1 starts out.

March 25, 2013 11:03 pm Good point. He's also killed on purpose. In the early issues of Detective Comics (1939) he kills all over the place. The only other times I can think of are in Batman: The Cult, where he chops someone up with an axe AND machine guns someone to death (under hallucinogens), and in All-Star Batman blowing up cop cars with cops inside them (gotta be dead).

March 21, 2013 10:47 am The backwards names part ruined this issue. Did not make any sense at all. Superman singing Mandrakk into oblivion in Final Crisis made 10x as much sense as this.

March 20, 2013 4:01 pm The only way to save this is to get someone better than Andy Diggle. It's so obvious, but does DC know?

March 20, 2013 3:55 pm *Which was basically a Superman book, zing!

March 20, 2013 3:54 pm Alan Moore already worked on Rob Liefeld's Supreme, and the universe never ended.

March 16, 2013 3:36 am Wolverine Origin was awesome. Its a worthy beginning to the tragic epic of Wolverine, cemented by Aaron, and ending in Old Man Logan. Weapon X (by Barry Windsor Smith) was an amazing visual origin, but the text is torture to read though (hmm....maybe that's the point?). At least Origin is solid and well thought-out. When was the last time you read a book with three authors, and it wasn't trash?
