Bendis is writing Uncanny X-Men. Brian Wood is writing X-Men and I think it starts in March.

Damien is awesome but i fear the worst.

Just saying if the plan was to kill him off doing it in the next few issues would be the best way to make sure it matters. If the plan isn't to kill him then we'll know pretty quick.

Batman Inc is not over yet
Yea but if you want to have a big impact with a death like this you have to get the timing right and the timing is pretty close to perfect...

I might need a whole issue of somebody knocking Hazmat on her ass
You think Snyder would have the call on something like that? I'm just imaging Morrison getting the memo, doing an eight ball, and choke slamming Snyder off of a skyscraper.

I thought we were talking about it happening in Inc. I was just remarking that Damian has been built up in such a way that if Morrison wanted to off him now (by now I mean in a few issues) would be a great time to do it. I doubt Snyder would have the pull or even want to mess with Morrison's story.
Batmang 17 was great!! I dont understand why ppl hating it...
I guess everyone wanted some big payoff or something, but whatevs I do not have any investment in the characters or overall story,
all I want is to be entertained and I thought it did a great job!
I like how
so with that said, since so many ppl hating, I would love for u guys to recommend me a better Joker story.
the only other one I have read was Killing Joke which is real good but doesnt really touch the points that I spoilered.

the whole story, Batman is being very stressed and insecure. Joker always comes off as very strong and confident, yet at the end Batman straight up exposes him and the strong and confident Joker suddenly becomes super weak and frightened. It was a real great shift in his character to me and I thought it was pretty cool.

"Issue 16 was the issue I should have stopped writing Batman...right then. It would have been....perfect."
"Hey, Mr. Snyder. HEY! You okay down there?"
"....perfect...."

Uncanny X-Men was alright. First issue, so I wasn't expecting to be floored. Art was great, reveal at the end makes sense.
WatXM, first issue I read. Might be back for more.
Morning Glories continues to make my head hurt, maybe reading all 24 issues consecutively would help.
Started Revival, really liked the first issue.
Need to get caught up on Fatale and Manhattan Projects.

Batman 17 was great. Joker ruined the family.
What if I told you... The family ruined Joker?

I think Joker is usually better in the cartoons or movies. It's wierd because Harley works for me in the comics but sometimes Joker doesn't. It's probably the way they use him. I'm not hating, I liked this story fine. Not so much him not having his face but the rest of it I liked.

HOLY shit. Adrian Alphona, of Runaways fame, is joining Uncanny X-Force. AND not only that, the next arc features.... THE DEMON BEAR.
This is so hype. Uncanny X-Force will be the best looking comic.

Marvel has some beautiful artist in the bullpen.

It's always going to come down to personal preference, but some of the choice Joker stories are:
The Clown at Midnight
The Man Who Laughs
Arkham Asylum
A Death in the Family
My favorite was the Killing Joke. I read with without knowing what happened... wtf Joker.

Too bad they hardly ever get to them since Land can go seven or eight innings consistently.
Wow. Really, holy crap. I don't think I've ever seen in his work in anything but Runaways but he was stellar in that. UXF sketches look great!
No, but there's a date on the package. Two days to go from SF bay area to Los Angeles via media mail.
I'm hoping this means dani is getting repowered

I'll check it out on the shelf but I already took X-force off my pulls.

Maybe it lead to a Fearless Defenders crossover? But I have a feeling Dani gets back her Valkyrie stuff in that series, and they'll just have some other Demon Bear in UXF.
They already had a Dani-less Demon Bear story in Kyle/Yost's X-Force.
Hm, did you not like issue 1? It was pretty cool, I though.

I'm not sure. I just didn't want to have to buy it, I'm sure they'll have enough on the shelf for me to pick up until I decide.

Batman #17 and Batman & Robin:
Uncanny #1:
WaTXM #25:
Still need to catch up with Manhattan Projects, hopefully will do that soon.
Enjoyed them both. The good reviews are well deserved. I like that Bats and Joker actually discussed the 'why don't you kill me thing' (just for Spike in time for Valentine's Day) in an way that actually made it a taunt from the Joker. Joker's fear of knowledge of his 'old life' is also interesting and something that doesn't really get played up much. Overall I can see why it was a disappointment to someone who needed a gimmick ending, but I appreciated the story. A good arc, but I still think Court of Owls was better. B&R was more a filler issue but I liked the dreams and especially like how the relationship between Damien and Bruce has grown. Hopefully that isn't going to end badly anytime soon....
Uncanny #1:
Reveal was obvious, but it was still a good read. Bachalo drew a good issue. For some reason Cyclops' mask works really well in the 'revolution' imagery in the issue and shitty any time else.
WaTXM #25:
All caught up now, and I can see why folks didn't dig the circus stuff, but I still feel this book is pretty damn good. Really found the Savage Land class entertaining and I don't know if Quire's fate has already been determined in some other X-book I don't know about but I'm actually starting to like the little bastard. Extra class and roll call stuff at the end is the type of thing that really helps bring this book to the top.
Still need to catch up with Manhattan Projects, hopefully will do that soon.
