That doesn't sound impressive at all.
Well, don't leave us hanging, does Luke destroy the galaxy???

Why does Luke look like He-Man

Finally got to read Batman Inc #8 out of my dcbs shipment, amazing book. That one page fight with
I need to catch up on Wonder Woman and Dial H to see if they can redeem the DC universe after Batman Inc is gone.
Damian against the monster damian with his arm on fire summed up my relationship with DC right now. "Call this monster off."

Wonder Woman is great.
I have never ever read a WW book, but I love this new version.
I'm up to issue 15 or so right now, it was my favorite New 52 title until i started catching up on Batman Inc. I need to reread the first 3 issues of Dial H before catching up since they were bizarre. Fun, but bizarre. Everything else i read is a hodgepodge of decency. Batman, Justice League, JL Dark, Green Lantern Crossover Hell, and Aquaman. I might give the full GL titles a shot in June when the creators switch but i'm guessing it won't be very good since the GL universe is full of itself right now. There's also little to no Pandora solo Trinity War hype at the moment and if i buy Pandora's book in June there won't be any excitement towards it. New 52 is mostly dead to me.

Paul Dini did a good job writing Damian

Wonder Woman is probably the only New 52 book outside of Batman that I haven't wavered on at some point. The storytelling has been consistently entertaining for the entire run thus far.
What's he up to anyway?
Might've already said this, but I totally dig the wordplay in Wonder Woman. We're talking about mythology here. Most of those guys are born from epic poems, so it's fitting that we get all the wacky alliterations and rhymes and puns.
Working on Marvel animated shows.
He's also got some Batman original graphic novel in development. Last June he said he got the go ahead from DC, but couldn't say much since it wasn't officially announced. He said it'd be a good year or two until its release.
I think Bloodspell, his Zatanna/Black Canary book, is still out there somewhere. Unfortunately, Dini was asked about it in both March and April 2012, and he had no idea when it would be released. The artist on that is Joe Quinones, and at least in 2011 Quinones was saying it'd be out in 2012.
DC doesn't have the greatest track record on completing and releasing OGNs in recent history, so who knows about either of them.
Edit: Actually just found an update on Bloodspell from ECCC.
Amanda Conner was the original artist.

Writer on ultimate spiderman tv show and writing an Zatana/black canary OGN which was delayed to fit into the Nu52
Yes. He's done with that now. He has nothing to do with the next game, whatever that is.
I see he also co-wrote the upcoming Maleficent movie.

Dude
I got chills when that old guy screamed "Do it!" Dan Slott is doing some good work.
Edit: It wasn't really Spider-Man that did it
The public approves and the super hero community will forgive and forget once Evil Spider-Man is evil no more.
Did you see the crowd? They loved that shit.
Yeah. I mean, they always point out the last time someone went berserk and blew up a planet or committed genocide and how it ended up OK in the so Spidey is safe. after all he only killed a murdering, emotionless sociopath.

Yes but Conquest is the formation for Gaurdians of the Galaxy so it wins.
So I've been catching up on Iron Man but I really can't stand Greg Land's art.
Yeah I know what you mean, the entire cosmic run had that epic feel that hasn't really been matched in the normal Marvel stuff.
I think I'll pick up Bendis' Moon Knight run, I've already got that in physical form But I need dat Maleev art in HD on my iPad.
You're right, of course. Green Lantern blew up an entire city and I guess he's still beloved.
As I mentioned previously, I'm just getting back into reading comics. With the absence of Wizard and such that were pretty much the defacto comic news places back when I was reading, what're the best places to get comic book news nowadays? I've been using comicvine.com but their site is pretty light on good content.
Gaf/Bleedingcool ( even though people hate it
)/Newsarama are the places i go to in case something is afoot. I like IGN's thursday review roundup too.BenjaminBirdie

It's pretty good brah, but then again I read everything. How is Bendis Moon Knight?
Okay, to be perfectly honest, that's an interesting debate as to whether or not Spidey shooting him was justified. I personally think he was, considering the circumstances.

Mars Attacks Popeye was so good. SO GOOD.
Looked through the Transformers issue but didn't like the art.

Bite them Back is by far the best arc in the excellent AV series... loved those covers, too.

Related question to that American Vampire arc :
Does Travis really think Skinner killed his parents or is he just after him because the killers were looking for Skinner?

But he wasn't. It was a group of vampires responsible. I was just asking if Travis knew the truth.

It is my favorite Snyder series. I know he has started to get a lot of hate here on this forum but I think his writing has been decent in everything I've read.

I love most of what he's done. There are plenty that get overwhelming love that cannot maintain quality, but put out greatness now and then, but Snyder is IMO consistently good to great.

Same here. I liked them so much I bought them before reading the start.
