Caught up on Wonder Woman. Really good book, and I'm enjoying the way the two stories intertwine with each other. I love Bilquis Evely's art in the Godwatch side, it's a great fit for the series. Really want to see her on more titles after this.
artists just don't move the needle

I really hope after Umbrella Academy, Ba & Moon do the next volume of Vampire. Casanova and Umbrella Academy need their time in the sun fair enough, but I need me some more demon bear
Fuck yes more deadman!
Deadman really could rock a young animal horror series tbh

Latest issue of Batman was better than the entirety of the Bane arc. Godamn.
It was great but I wouldn't go THAT far. I Am Bane was excellent

The new issue of Batman had Guy Fieri and that was pretty cool

He's training for his eventual clash with Saitama.
Not that it's going to do him much good.

Wonder Woman and Batman look like adults. Everyone else look like kids dressing up.

If it turned out it was like that, it'd remind me of X-Men Evolution. I'd be into that.

That Batman/Shadow book looks great. No familiarity with The Shadow but I might pick it up.
Finished my Harrow County reread. Not much to add from last night except that I recant my feeling that vol 2 & 3 were rushed. Maybe it was just adjusting to the 4 issue arcs oppose to 6 but I kind of felt first time through that Bunn was barrelling through plot moments a touch too quickly the first time I read 2 & 3 but it felt spot on this time around.
Really nice series with a first year that manages to cover a lot of ground. Two major arcs, a nice 2 partner focusing on a core member of the cast beyond the lead and two one shots with really nice guest art, especially #12 by Hannah Christenson, whom I thiiink is working on a Boom book now called Death Be Damned.
Oh yea, and the sketch book sections at the back of the trades are legitimately huge. Like 30 pages in volume 3, with annotations and comments from the team, tons of sketches from Crook, a look at his painting process. There's posters they designed for in the world, maps sketched out to imagine the world, one volume had a 7 chapter short story. Lots of cool interesting stuff.

Wow. This is the first time I've seen Justice League written in Japanese. I'm surprised they use kanji.
Ching is gone?
Where did you see this?

I'd go farther. It was the first great issue of King's run. Simple story, great pace, and a fresh take on Swamp Thing.

You totally misspelled his name dude lol. It's Robson Rocha(Green Lanterns).
Is it wrong that he has a differing opinion if he can back it up (which he has in the past)?
Yes.

Looking forward to DC having the confidence in King to move him up up from Batman to top tier Swamp Thing book. I understand the hesitance and need for him to cut his teeth on a b lister first though.
Imo he would fit better on a character like that. He seems to thrive on books about people who aren't in the spotlight. Batman has too much expectation attached to it imo.
Johns is still working his way up the ranks to get a Shazam book.
I wanted to see DC put him on Green Lantern to do a story in the same vein as Omega Men.

One of my favorite moments of The Office. Thank you for posting this.

This is true. I think his time on Batman is wise in terms of solidifying his name as something that can sell, Omega Men did nearly get canned. I do totally agree though and there's a lot of room in some of the old Vertigo properties that are part of the main u now for him to do his thing. Mr Miracle is a great alternative though, that's all but guaranteed to be tops.
Shazam, Swamp Thing...S Rank. We've got the makings of a system here. Pro point - Zatanna lands at the top, con - Animal Man gets the shaft

Fanboys gonna fanboy. I've learned not to post detailed criticisms of reviews, because they're usually meet with dismissive gifs. It's easier for me just to ignore and move on.
You jest (somewhat) but you're absolutely correct. He hasn't landed Batman's "voice" once in the run. Swamp Thing was perfect in this issue.
