Nah. Frank just knows exactly what he is. Simply doesn't harbor illusions of self-grandeur like Wayne or Fury.

Just finished Sexcastle. It might be the greatest comic ever?
Sounds like a Manara book.
So shortsighted then?

It's collected in a recent (2012-ish) trade just called Green Lantern/Green Arrow. It has this cover:
I think it's got the whole run.
Thanks a lot.
I am watching a documentatiom about superhero comics in TV an my wishlist grows and grows. Never thought that this one 15 Issue Shield from Steranko looks that amazing, too.
Now that 70s Wonder Woman show

Reading the current Deadpool run now that I've got that free month of Marvel Unlimited (thanks to everyone that posted the code). I think I started it, way back when, but I got turned off by the "joke-per-panel" pacing/style. It's damn good now, at issue 17. Still funny, but a lot more willing to be serious. Reminds me of the oldschool stuff, really.

I want to read that event, but it seems almost TOO ridiculous.

So yeah, Rotworld: The Green Kingdom falls apart starting at Swamp Thing #16, but I still think it's pretty fun, if also pretty dumb.

How's the Red Kingdom half of it?

I haven't read that yet. My IST order just came in today.
The two converge at Swamp Thing and Animal Man #s 17, so they share pretty much everything I described in that post. As a result, just going by what I've read, it's at least as dumb as Green Kingdom.

Oh, I've already read that, it's the oldschool stuff I was referring to
I think I preferred the art in that, but otherwise there's really nothing to choose between them. Fantastic stuff. "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" was the best Deadpool story I've read in a long-ass time.
Everybody should give it a try

That story was brilliant.

If he were, he'd have tried to raise his daughter.
Could see quite well what would happen to her in the long term.
He also wouldn't keep pushing back anyone and everyone that tries to associate with him. Precisely because he knows what tends to happen to those that stick around.
Thanks a lot.

That is one of my favorite comic book runs of all time. Green Lantern/Green Arrow was awesome, and its sad that a lot of the social commentary in it is still relevant today.
It's fucking awful and almost killed all the positive momentum Animal Man had built up to that point.

Well shit. I haven't read anything Animal Man related ever, so I have no knowledge of that franchise.
What I do know, is that I finished Inhumanity, which was just kind of...there. One of the stories in it was pretty cool, but beyond that "eh." There wasn't much actual Inhuman stuff going on. Disappointing, but like I said, there's a story or two in there that's cool. Honestly if anyone wanted to get into the new Inhuman stuff, it isn't a prerequisite. Aside from the Karnak bit in the beginning, but even that's not a prerequisite. It's just cool.
Also got through the rest of Hellboy Library Edition Volume 5 which contains Darkness Calls and The Wild Hunt story arcs. A lot of plot. Hellboy saying "fuck you" to literally everything. Good stuff. Was not expecting him to
be a descendant of King Arthur, though. That was a turn.
Currently reading New 52 The Flash Volume 1: Moving Forward. Enjoying it so far, though I don't have much experience with The Flash as a property overall, minus any animated stuff and the current CW series. Figured this would be a good jumping on point to get a quick familiarization with the property as a whole.

I remember one thing at the end of it. Wasn't a fan of that plot point
In other news what would you say is JR Jrs best work. He's always been a hit or miss artist to me but I'd say his work on DD:the man of fear is his best work. Maybe spidey as runner up?
His wolverine Millar run was pretty good too. Maybe that as #3

I don't think it's his best, but I really enjoyed his work in the most recent Superman story he did with Johns:

So is Basilisk like the HYDRA of DC?

No that's kobra. Basilisk just popped out of N52 as a Kobra wannabe

He's moving onto the superior superman. I'm afraid that whatever he is actually working on will only be a one shot, mini series or an occasional graphic novel like earth one. I can only imagine his job is going to get much busier after this point with the DCCU ramping up, I'm sure we'll see more cartoons, live action shows and video games.

I am curious to see what Luen Yang does with Superman
Thought it was a bizarre replacement choice at first, but I'll probably check it out.

Got through New 52 Flash Volume 1. Good stuff. A fun book. I like Cold's new powers.
Also picked up Astonishing X-Men Volume 1 last week and Volume 2 this week. Really, really enjoying that. I like Whedon, and I really wanted to read an X-Men run, so I picked that up. Really enjoying it.
