PREVIEW: Worlds’ Finest, Vol. 1: The Lost Daughters of Earth 2
April 10, 2013 12:45 pm This is a completely directionless book. I like these characters and even I have lost interest in it.

A Funny Thing About Comics…
April 5, 2013 12:20 pm I don't know, the Giffen era Justice league was pretty goofy, and it lasted for a long while. I often find that funny superheroes do better outside the comicbook market. The Teen Titan's cartoon was one of Cartoon Networks biggest hits for example.

DC Loses Two More Writers Before They Start: Andy Diggle Leaves ACTION COMICS and Joshua Fialkov Leaves GREEN LANTERN CORPS & RED LANTERNS [UPDATE]
March 21, 2013 11:29 am The New 52 will be rebooted sooner rather then later to many gimmick based marketing ploys not enough good writing across the board. And most of the bright spots could have happened in the old continuity.

Zub Off BIRDS OF PREY, Venditti off CONSTANTINE… Before They Start! And More DC Changes!
January 15, 2013 10:29 am I hope this isn't some silly attempt by DC's part to turn their fan base into zombies that by characters instead of creative teams. A comic is only as good as the people creating it. I think it's silly to continue to buy a comic that you know isn't very good only because you like the character. I had to make this very choice a few months ago when I dumped World's Finest.
I like Powergirl and Huntress as characters but this title lacks a lot of the elements that make those characters interesting.

Superman & Wonder Woman Sitting in a Tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G in JUSTICE LEAGUE #12 and Beyond
August 22, 2012 11:31 am I'd be more okay with this if DC had a good history of pairing superheroes together in a way that didn't do damage to the female character in the relationship. Black Canary is a prime example of this, she is a cool character when she is by herself or on birds of prey., but as soon as they pair her up with Green Arrow she reverts to damsel in distress stereotype. This inspite of the fact that she is more powerful then him.
