and now for no reason at all his mother used to call him "little bird". damn is that gut-clutchingly bad!!!

i may be a coo-coo bird for saying this? but i was actually looking forward to seeing J.R. Jr. draw Batman.
sure his art has gotten sloppier since his days of drawing Punisher War Zone, but when he takes his time and actually draws structure into the form i find it very cool! i really loved the art he drew for Kick-Ass.
but the Romita/Snyder team-up is a pretty painful read!!
at least it's not nearly as bad as those back-up stories, i gave up wasting my time trying to read those!

speaking as a die hard Batman fanatic (currently still going through withdrawal)
i can honestly say that many of us have OCD when it come to buying every single Batman title that comes out. wether they are good or just an awful cash grab.

wow! i hear that Justice League comic series is ALL kinds of awful!!!!
the fact that it made the top 10 is proof that some people will throw money at anything.
at least Trinity topped it at #7.
that one actually looked like it had potential.

Wow. That last page of Batman.

Not spoiling it just yet, you all gotta see it.

Trinity

Spoiler:
Man, I really wish the solits hadn't spoiled Poison Ivy's involvement with the White Mercies...but it's interesting to see her as the antagonist of this story too. Bruce was the voice of reason in Clark's dream realm, but the next issue indicates he's next.


JL

Spoiler:
Is this just a two-parter? Jessie throws up and that's just about it? And, oh gee what a surprise, Bruce is the only one not really affected by the parasitic fear whatmahcallit and talks Clark out of beating him senseless

Batman
The War of Jokes and Riddles sounds FASCINATING. When can we get THAT story?

Bronze Tiger knows who Batman is? Interesting.

Punch and Jewlee... huh. Interesting. Curious to know who they are and what they do.

"Arkham, look around you. Look at the asylum I filled. Do you really want to tell me what I can't do?" SHIVERS!

Selina Kyle on death row? For 227 counts of murder? WTF? Assuming she's been framed. Or it's part of her latest con or heist. I won't prejudge this, but my reaction is WTF.

Nightwing
Raptor forcing Bruce to surrender to public kidnapping or else reveal himself as Batman was AWESOME. And Dick going after him to rescue Bruce and find out what the connection is between Raptor and Dick's mom? PSYCHED! This is really good.

Also, Damian!

Trinity
Poison Ivy, eh? Against Bruce, Clark, and Diana? I am so in for this. Love Ivy, she's a great villain. Let's do this.

Detective Comics
It was a'ight. But did anyone else hate Luke Fox? I'm with Batwoman on this one. Ugh. He wasn't like that until HipsterBatgirl, right?

The Flash
The art was TERRIBLE. I hated it, and it ruined the story for me.

Wonder Woman
Not much happened. The setup for future issues was more interesting than anything in this issue. Snooze.

First time I've read WW in weeks. Nice to see her and Steve finally together and at least she finally admitted N52 Supes was a fling and nothing serious.

Action Comics resolved some plot threads, and Lana revealed her problems to Clark and Lois (probably best to speed the story up given her own book is a monthly)

Suicide Squad:
This Enchantress just seems like weak watered-down flat soda. Seriously, boring.

Loving everybody else, though. Can't wait to see Zod rip up some more stuff.

Hack is... eh, she COULD be interesting. Depends on where it goes.

That's funny because this was my least favorite issue of Flash.

But Teen Titans was pretty a'ight. It's weird seeing Starfire so teenage, though, when the last I remember of her, she was making busty mostly-nude cheesecake poses throughout "Red Hood and the Outlaws." Man, that book sucked.
