*sigh* Just like the Sonic comics for me about 24+ issues after the reboot (blame Ken Penders). I know how that feels.

If that what it takes. DC has been in a terrible place for many years now, and the people responsible aren't getting fired... they're getting promoted.

I'd sooner have Marvel crash than DC, but yeah, they're no angels, that Superman editor needs to go.

and any project they work on gets promoted as "Essential Reading" even when it's total garbage. Quote:
i've tried reading some of the Mark Millar stuff he's done for Icon, but i'm finding he's a bit of a hack. so Glad i dropped all the Superman titles ('cept for Lois & Clark for how ever long it got?) i've been hearing the latest cross-over arc has been miserably bad!

And as for that meeting between N52 and Pre-Flashpoint? It's barely even a page long before PF Clark gets out of dodge with his family. He had more panel time with Solar Supes. Yup.

i was reading all the New 52 Superman titles since issue #1. at several points was looking to jump off, but stuck around till #50. that sounds pretty typical of the disappointing arcs thus-far!!! the nice thing about not being bombarded by a slew of new crappy comics each wednesday is now i can go back and re-read some of the actual GOOD stories that i truly did enjoy!

Both DC and Marvel need to crash and burn for a few years. I think the problem now is pretty much every good superhero story has already been told, so there's not much else to take these characters.

Speaking of crashing, here's a rundown of comic sales across the board from April
http://www.newsarama.com/29277-comic...-the-year.html 18% (22% in units) lower from this time in 2015 |

The problem is most of the current writers and editors grew up in the 70s and that's all they really know how to write. They're completly out of touch and don't hire enough broader and youthful talent, whenever they do, they lock them out of titles they could be working on in favor of the same tired stale acts that have been on top for decades

any time i feel myself slipping into the temptation of trying out one of these new Bi-Weekly DC titles....
.....all i have to do to deter myself is just look at how lame the new characters they'll be fighting look! HECK! all i need to do is look at how terrible Batman's new costume looks!! I'M BATMAN!!!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
