Justice League United # 2 decided to play the exposition game, and it lost. I don't give a shit about Rann and Thanagar's decades old wars and the dna-baby they made and blahblahblah. Get back to Animal Man punching people in the face using gorilla powers and Adam Strange jetpacking himself into trees because he's a dope.

Much like the rest of the N52, this book would greatly benefit from B'Wana Beast.
That being said, I am enjoying it. I like the team Lemire put together and am intrigued to see how the new girl will fit in.

 

[Filthy Slug]

I can see that. I can totally see that. But I still enjoyed it.

I still loved it! Needed way more Martian Manhunter x Stargirl though.

I think the actual interplay between the team is the best part, and I'm hoping we just get more of that rather than some weird headed asses talking about some demon baby.

Also, since when does Hawkman have a healing factor?

Why haven't you been sending him twitter messages asking him when B'Wana Beast is going to show up then? Not if, of course, but when. Gotta be confident.

I think it's a quality of the Nth Metal.

Holy shit. Animal Man and B'Wana Beast reunion! Somebody has to speak to Lemire and convince him that this is the time to reintroduce the greatest superhero to not wear pants.

Finished issue #14 of planetary and it just keeps getting better and better.

I felt like an idiot getting so excited over that last issue. Felt like a total noob because I wasn't aware he could regenerate.

Yep, one of the best comics ever.

Makes sense--if you cut the dude's arm off, you're pretty much killing the character. All Hawkman does is swing maces into things faces.

Same--I actually thought that was a ballsy move to pull in the first issue, especially since Hawkman hasn't been seen in a while in the new52 (I think).

Sadly I've never been able to engage Lemire on twitter or I'd be all about it. If he's going to be at any cons this summer, someone here needs to take one for the team and ask about B'Wana.

Oh man, I thought you guys were talking about Hawkeye and thought I missed something because, y'know, that one issue with Clint before all of the delays and Kate Bishop stories...

 

[Tyrant Rave]

I miss Hawkeye, the delays are really disappointing.

I love the series and I'm super excited for the new trades so I can reread it but man... It sucks.

I truthfully just want it to wrap. Let's get about 10 more issues in and call it a day.

Isn't the current arc over after the next four (?) issues? Seems like a good time to let it end.

Red Sonja is soooooooooooooo good. Gail Simone to the rescue!

not if you give him a robot arm. or a gun arm. Or a MACE ARM

 

[dark_inferno]

I'm pulling Wicked + Divine based on GAF hype. If it's lousy I'm posting a bunch of Frank Quitely art.

Popstars who are getting killed one after another.

Im predicting it now.

 

[Zombine]

Also, to amend my post from earlier, if Wicked + Divine makes me get involved in another fandom I will be posting Quitely art, too. It's basically lose lose. Either way I'm going to post potato faces or Darkside showing off his goods.

 

[GrandHarrier]

The art previews for Wicked + Divine look pretty mediocre to bad. Is it just the writer who is getting people hyped up?

I'm more interested by the premise of the book, but I don't get how the fucking fuck people can call that art bad, yet still get hyped up about 80's artwork.

I think it looks stellar to be honest. It fits the direction of the story.

 

[Messi]

Not this shit again

Here Messi, let this settle your nerves.

If I have any goal, it's to get Amanda Connor to do a sketch for me. My god are her lines flawless.

For me, my expectations of then and now are different. I know what a good art team is capable of these days. Mind you, these are all from the previews, but the panel layouts are boring and they feel lifeless. Image books have tended to have a certain life to them, in some fashion, this feels more generic and forgettable.

Yeah we need ComicGAF faces ASAP. This is a good start.

She can't be that expensive, right? She isn't bold enough to start charging for autographs like Famos Ramos.

 

[GrandHarrier]

If you told me it was a modern Jem and the Holograms book published by IDW, I'd probably believe you.

I think the Batwoman panel layouts are the only ones I've ever found truly memorable.

I don't even know. I'm sure she is busy.

 

[Zombine]

I would gladly pay her well for a sketch like that, but I bet she wouldn't shake anyone down.

I need an Amanda Connor Velvet sketch in my life.

 

[Messi]

Anyone met her and knows what she charges for say Harley...

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Deadly Class has some great layouts too. The first issue with the motorcycle scene was amazing.

 

[samueeL]

Finally got my hands on N52 Green Arrow Vol. 4 trade and holy shit, it's probably one of the best new 52 trades I've read so far and it seems like Outsider storyline seems to be even better or at least people hype it a lot online. Wonder how many issues this creative team is gonna do, was it couple of years of work as in 4 volumes or something like that? Everyone should check out that volume, just amazing.

Also comic book reading is expensive even though I have a very cheap store, have bought 15 volumes in a month, haha...
