I see you have typed something here, but your words, they make no sense to me in the order you have arranged them.

I lost interest so I dropped it, but yeah, it was really good for a while.
Not even close my friend. That book is amazing.

I thought it was going to be Johns next epic after Green Lantern, he chose Justice League instead.

Aquaman is awesome . Shame johns didn't stay longer
Yeah, Johns' on Aquaman is pretty great, because Johns is good except when it comes to making Big Important Books.
e: And Parker is a good writer, it's in safe hands, come on.
Anyways, that 4chan DC list sounds boring enough to be real, but it probably isn't. For one, I don't think Matt Kindt can be on more books than he currently is.

what's Jeff Parker's history?
is there any hope or is Aquaman going to go back to being nothing
Weird choice. 'Tec is super serious, Manapul's art doesn't really go with that tone.

The whole thing is well worth reading, and you should read it. But for the people who don't have time, it can be summed up with the first sentence:

I really think it is. I loved it. A fair few on the thread seemed to like it more or less. Didn't hear many complaints. Some seem to take issue with the humour/dialogue but I thought that part of the book was strong. They just go all the way, y'know? Issue one focuses on getting to know the characters and I like the characters quite a bit. Maybe it's one of those love the characters, love the book kinda things.
Picked up Batman Black and White and Sex Criminals today, and on the way home my dad called and said his battery died(!!!), so I went and picked him up to go get another one...and made the mistake of not hiding my comics x_x
My dad, being the comic fan he is, looked through Batman B&W, then saw Sex Criminals...he then opened it up, let out an "Ah, mmhm...", and straight up jacked it for himself XD
So maybe I'll get to read my copy of Sex Criminals before the end of the week, lol

Well I may have contributed to it since I bought the recent trade that Johns was on at the beginning.

Cyborg is (possibly?) getting his own book?? I'm down for that. I will also definitely read a Titans book and Shazam with that creative team. Needs more Batman books though.

I thought March left DC to do indie books. I'd be mad if that list was true since Talon has been stuck with shit artists since he left.
It's worth checking out, first issue is good.
Aquaman has been one of DC's best since the relaunch happened. Was looking forward to it being his next Green Lantern, but even if that didn't happen, I've enjoyed the work he did.
Of that list up there, I'm down with Shazam, MM, Titans, and the Others. Maybe to everything else.

TWELVE new books? That's a lot. Just the sheer number makes me wonder if this can possibly be true. Definitely some impending cancelations if accurate.

At least half of those rumored DC books I would want to try.
I'm hoping Overdrive could somehow be a Ghost Rider ongoing, and as for Assassin I'd love it to be either Black Widow or Elektra (I've come to terms with the fact Bucky might not get his own solo again, but All-New Invaders is going to be hype so it doesn't matter).
In the possibly false 4Chan DC leaks I might read a Red Robin book, I don't know why some people take shots at Tim, he's awesome.

Huh, David Brothers edits Lazarus now? Speaking of, I was kind of into the first issue but it's become v. irritating since imo. Very sophomoric class-analysis, Greg Rucka-y as all hell despite the sci-fi setting, browner than a Vertigo comic (though less in this issue, but the colourist is definitely no Hollingsworth and honestly kind of awful in some places)

Oh no....We should make some comic ones...

No, no, no...get it out of here, my brain...make it stop!
But it'd actually be pretty funny if a bunch of people here on Comic-GAF used this avatar, we need to show off the power of Stellar Artist Greg Land to the unenlightened.

This one is fantastic. So much so I doubt any could surpass it. Might as well stop here.

And Rich has debunked that DC rumor (and in this case I believe him)

I think a Plastic Man book could be pretty interesting. I never thought too much of the character, but I'm reading through old school JLA and Morrison and Waid really made me enjoy the character quite a bit.
I'm not sure what to think of Gail Simone now, however. Loved her work in the Old 52, but she hasn't really blown me away with any of her Nu52 work.

I think they are fitting given how much of a wrestling fan Land is.

What issue are Francis and Brian going to work on Detective Comics?

Agents of Shield is pretty wack so far. People are all "but it's supposed to be a fun show!" which is okay, but I'm not having any fun watching it. The characters aren't entertaining and the plots are so barebones. The show can't seem to decide if it just wants to be a fun adventure show or something more, and the result is just bland.
That is a summary of how i feel, both in expectations going in ( a fun adventure of shield shenanigans) and how it turned out. Episode one i wrote off as a rough beginning, but episode 2 was terrible and ended up declaring it was a team building episode , as if stating what you want the episode to be is a suitable replacement for actually being good.

Yeah Agents of Shield is unwatchable. I came in expecting Whedon dialogue, monster of the week and loose to no connection the Marvel U. Its just boring and poorly written. DC is making them humble when it comes to tv.
And that 4chan list is BS. First of all DC is not announcing 12 books and four creative changes at once. I will be surprised if they combined for six. The list is comprised of former rumors and Rich rumblings.
Instock Trades is pissing me off. Tomorrow will have been a week and now they say they have two books not in stock and cant get.
Fuck Earth 2.

Waiting on October 15 for Walking Dead 115.
Earth 2 would have been fine if it wasn't Robinson's last issue. As is, there's just so much to this world he's leaving unanswered/underdeveloped, and then this issue throws yet another spoke to the wheel. Who knows how or if Tom Taylor is going to continue everything (Nevermind that the next two issues are about E2 Batman, who I can't find a fuck to give about).
