Justice League?
Batman & Wonder Woman together once again!

Snyder's always worn his horror credentials on his sleeve with Batman, stretching back to Black Mirror. Death of the Family was some SAW shit, and Endgame pushed straight into Slasher territory. And that side story with the Arkham doctor? Oy vey.
Personally, I kind of think it lessens them, but I'm really not a horror guy to begin with. I prefer his less horror stuff, so Zero Year and Court of Owls.
The man knows his tension, I'll say that.
Would be awesome.

His Superman story was underwhelming IMO
Issue 50 of More Than Meets The Eye hits in Feb.
A publisher giving 50 issues to a new writer who'd never done a professional run before is kinda spectacular really, even leaving aside how awesome it is.

He keeps talking about he and Capullo working on something "bigger than Batman," or something closer than that. Just moving to Detective doesn't really meet that bill, imo.
All New Wolverine #4 was really awesome. Loving this series so far and #4 was the best issue. Lopez knocked the art out of the park and the story interesting and it has some really funny moments. Plus a bit of action and Dr Strange was in it. The final page makes me really excited for next issue. Sad Lopez is leaving at #6 but Takara is just as good and fits perfectly with an X-23 book. One of the best new books from Marvel.
Just finished reading the last 2 or 3 issues of Grayson and Detective. Pretty decent stuff. The Robin War tie-ins seemed cool but I didn't care to buy the main issues. How did it end?
Tomasi continues to be a fine writer. Even though the Justice League appearance issues of Detective were kind of meaningless, it was fun to seem them working with Gordon and Wonder Woman have that lasso session with Bruce.

Robin War was pretty great. Ends with
Dick agreeing to the Court's offer, and the reveal that the Gotham Court of Owls is just one of many.
You'll take your Zatara ongoing by Geoff John and like it!

Is there any good (and longish) Zatanna run? Maybe as long as Rucka or Azzarello's WW runs?

Thought this was a pretty clever comic tbh
Paul Dinis run is really good. Great art too.
Too soon to call the Angela experiment a failure? I actually like the book, and think the character works well outside of being a ex spawn character. I wonder where they go with her if they do cancel it, stick her on some team book in a few months?
If the book is canceled I would expect her to show up somewhere else.
She has already been a member of the Guardians and I'd expect her to go back there. They have kept those ties strong in both books and Angela and Gamora are buds.
I don't think it's been a failure. Bennett has done great character work for her and made her more than she was when they got her from spawn. Constant Relaunches have hurt that book more than anything. There have been 3 books all trying to continue the same storyline in a row. I feel for the Angela team they clearly love her.
Angela's solo title isn't like most of Marvels other books. It's odd. It has its own mythology that it pulls from and references. It can be hard to follow at times but I find it rewarding. There are many issues where she doesn't fight anything or issues where it's mostly character building. I guess it didn't stick with people .

When did #2 drop? Was it this past week? I haven't read the past weeklies.

3 books?

Assassin
Witch Hunter Angela
Queen of Hel
Witch Hunter was the Secret Wars book but it also had ties to the other story and stuff moving forward. It was making the best of having to do a secret wars book but keep telling the story you started.
I didn't know that, but it makes sense.

I've read it up to the last issue. Still need to read that one. It's great. Basically it's Morrison doing an Event Horizon comic book. Avoid if you don't like gore or horror
Yeah, Secret Wars hurt the series and you think with LGBT ties, the series would be a big deal for Marvel.

The things I could do with Angela if Marvel gave me a chance. When we getting Mystic U and Dark Universe?
Scarlet Witch and Doctor Strange
It's not cancelled yet mind you... And that rumor did come from bleeding cool.

Daaaaaaamn
And Magik is part of the X-Men and they are currently based in Limbo.
So...it's kind of up there...
Exactly but Marvel does have A LOT of books.
It wasn't even a rumor, just speculation on Rich's part. We'll find out next month though.
Yup, I am not confident that it will continue unless Marvel wants to keep that team around.
But I don't trust Rich as far as I could throw him.

I am constantly impressed by how terrible the MU app/website is.
I read it. The first few issues intrigued me but as it got further along I disliked it more and more. Just reveling in overly disturbing imagery.

It's a fantastic service - with a horrendous app.

Tired of being six months behind?
Err no, it would mean going back to a no-comics world. Its a sad world, i remember it well

You could always not cancel and keep reading comics? Or subscribe again in a few months and watch the Royal Rumble tmw.

JSA finally reached a point where I have no idea what's going on.
So, I finally started Johns' solo run, as previously he was partnered with Goyer. So, his first issue (directly after the Thanagar arc) has the JSA taking a mission from President Luthor (comics time frame reference) and calling in "all the reserves," which include a lot of characters who I'm either not familiar with or have not shown up in the book:
-STRIPE (It could be argued he has appeared since Pat has shown up)
-Black Condor
-The Ray
-Nemesis
-Power Girl (familiar with but hadn't appeared yet)
-Shining Knight (same)
-Vigilante (same)
-Iron Munro
-The Patriot
-Phantom Lady
-Damage
-Dr. Occult (hasn't appeared since the Stalker arc ended)

Goddamnit JSA. So, back to Johns and Goyer...Hourman's back, but now he's...different? Like, a standard human with some powers? Premonitions?
