Ok, I might be a bit biased, but this was a good start to the re-introduction of what I’ve always…

James Robinson Leaves EARTH 2 and DC Comics?
May 18, 2013 12:54 am The only bright spot lately for DC is Lemire's Green Arrow. Other than that, mostly crap. The new 52 was bad since the beginning. You're doing something wrong when someone like me doesn't like a Swamp Thing or Animal Man book. I literally could go on for hours. It just really bums me out.

What’s Wrong With You? Apple, SAGA #12, and Yet Another Witch Hunt [UPDATE]
April 10, 2013 9:23 pm Let's be absolutely clear, this IS Apple's fault. Apple has rules about what can be in apps & Comixology erred by interpreting the rules incorrectly. The problem is that the rule needs to be interpreted in the first place. Crystal clear policies about what they will & will not allow would keep this from happening again in the future.
That being said, comixology has published all previous issues and a lot of them included similar "offensive" material. Why this time? Don't think that question has been adequately addressed.

Review: GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #1 by Brian Michael Bendis and Steve McNiven
March 26, 2013 11:26 pm Miss the old costumes, and in the picture above, Gamora looks like She-Hulk in armor, with a sword. What the heck is up with all the lights on Groot? Did Jim Lee do the character designs?

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 2:46 pm I said they alienated people (like me) by hiring OSC, which is a FACT. Read the INTERNET if you need sources. You're opinion about his abilities is irrelevant to my point.

Comics As Gifts: The Ultimate Conundrum
March 20, 2013 11:21 pm My kids are bummed if I don't give them comics for the holidays & birthdays. It brings me great joy to know that I'm giving them a gift that'll be with them forever. So far, I've nailed everyone I've given them, no duds yet!

DC Loses Two More Writers Before They Start: Andy Diggle Leaves ACTION COMICS and Joshua Fialkov Leaves GREEN LANTERN CORPS & RED LANTERNS [UPDATE]
March 20, 2013 11:18 pm So, who's really in charge there? First, they try to emulate the WORST era of comics from a quality standpoint, then they alienate their creatives, then they alienate folks by hiring a bigot, then they alienate MORE creatives! It makes me sad that such great characters are being treated so shabbily. I could literally complain about this all night.
I could figuratively throttle the idiots in charge at DC.

Wrestler Dave Bautista Cast as Drax the Destroyer in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’
March 15, 2013 12:05 am He probably won't talk much, so he'll be fine. Marvel has done a really good job w/ casting so far, so I'll give 'em the benefit of the doubt.
