November 21, 2011 6:15 pm After more thought, I think what I hate about this series thus far is (apart from the asinine "gun cover") that the characters are taking a back seat to the (absurdly laughable) plot. I love Aplha Flight for the individuals and their struggles. But many of the characters aren't acting in character, they're hostages to the stupidity of the next step in the plot.

November 21, 2011 5:50 pm The title/splash pages in the first two issues have been mind-blowingly cool. I'm hoping the writing picks up a notch or two, but this book is really good

November 21, 2011 5:37 pm I love these characters, but the last issue was frickin terrible. Hopefully it gets better before it's done.

November 21, 2011 5:31 pm He actually whispered "I'm not wearing underpants". That's why Rick wanted OUT of there on the double.

November 21, 2011 5:29 pm We don't even know if she HAS survived. And if she has, we have no idea about the circumstances. It's a bit early to judge the realism of the event.

November 17, 2011 12:56 pm Love the new Wonder Woman. I get some Neil Gaiman Sandman vibes occasionally while reading it. Hey, remember when Neil Gaiman wrote comics? or....anything for those about the age 12?

November 7, 2011 2:01 pm "Maggie says she’ll have sex with him. And not just in the abstract, but right then and there in the abandoned drug store. Chicks, man." My favorite part of the recap.

November 7, 2011 1:53 pm Or perhaps it was done that way to create a more interesting recap. I like that choice better.

November 7, 2011 1:52 pm "She goes out into the field and pulls out the mysterious package… a pregnancy test!" Confused by this. The way it's written, it seems like Connor didn't realize it was a pregnancy test until the very end. There was an insanely long shot of Glenn looking at a pregnancy test in the drugstore, in fact, it's the reason why he was caught by Maggie, and ended up getting some.

November 7, 2011 1:25 pm I'm digging this book, but there were some serious writing problems in this issue. It was a prime example of failing the "show me, don't tell me" rule. Except in this case, it was "tell me, then show me the exact thing you just told me". Very sloppy.
