Thanks to the Humble Bundle, I just finished V1 and V2 of More Than Meets The Eye. No lie, it's a very good series. Not "I-like-Transformers-and-this-is-a-Transformers-comic" kinda way, but in a legit entertaining, well written series kinda way. Stories are engaging, characters are well fleshed out, and there's a lot of space adventure/action with humor mixed in. Honestly if these characters weren't Transformers and were something else I'd still consider this a good book.
I haven't really read many Transformers comics so some of the references were a little lost on me but I was able to work it out well enough. Also, the art is good but I could still get some of the bots mixed up at the beginning. Luckily their characteristics are expanded enough that it's not really a problem.
I'm starting Robots in Disguise soon (I believe the series runs concurrently with MTMTE) and I hope it's just as good.
Within a day or two as long as everything is actually in-stock. If not, they'll wait for whatever it is that's on backorder.
It's taken me 8 days to get all of my orders with the upgraded shipping...though there's usually 1 or 2 items that hold things up.
Hmm. Ok, thanks guys. Got two books that look like they are holding up my order. One of them is a new release though, so I'm not sure what's going on there.
Okay going to give the New 52 a shot. Honestly what was the tipping point for me is finding about the Val-Zod character. So going to be checking out the Earth 2 first. Just trying to decide if I want to get the first trade digitally (I have the first Kindle Fire) or the physical copy (lack of space might an issue).
I'm not crazy about the idea of pairing Superman and Wonder Woman together. So even though I like Superman as a character I still don't know if I want to bother with his titles. Unless it's clear that's not going to last. Is it?
I kinda want to get as much of an overview of the DC universe as it currently is and the big events taking place. So any recommendations as to what I should start looking at other then Earth 2?
Superman/Wonder Woman has worked better than I anticipated, honestly. But in general I feel the same way: I like Superman but have pretty much ignored the character for the majority of the New 52. I like the first few issues of Morrison's Action Comics run to start things off, but really only got back into it when Pak picked up Action and started Superman/Batman. Now Johns' Superman run looks good too so I'm picking up Supes regularly again.
Honestly I feel you'll be pretty covered when it comes to Superman with the beginning of Morrison's Action run, Justice League and Superman/WW. What other characters are you interested in?
