Ah that's cool. I'm fine with it not being fantastic or anything. If it had been full price I may feel different but that's alright with me.

hmm that's a shame DC has a lot of characters I like but hardly any books with them I find worth reading. I might try it out anyway just to see what's what.
Also Justice League, Aquaman, and Action Comics. And probably a bunch more. DC has so much good stuff.

oh, no. I've kept up with the series, and while the revelations were interesting enough, there's
no one left that I care about, so none of it really makes a difference to me.

Love Rucka interviews,thanks for these!
I prefer Batman when he's in background character or depicted as some kind of myth or whatever or at the very least has other heroes to interact with,otherwise if I get to see under the hood so to speak,he becomes boring to me .To be fair I've only read parts of Capullo's series but I don't think the character's all that fundamentally different in other solo books.
I digged Zero Year arc,read the last issue of Death in the family because I wanted my Batgirl conclusion.This one I didn't like because everyone from Batfamily except Batman were turned into jobbers so Bruce could save the day.Then I read Endgame arc after hype from rl friend,the first 2 issues were kind of fanfic tier for me with the JL members but liked the rest.
Same problem as in Dotf,but not sure if the problem was actually making Batman overpowered enough to beat them or the fact that Joker was even able to pull off the whole mind control or w/e virus on everyone.Either way,it was eye-roll worthy to me
Also that Sasha character was never revived for 52 in some other fashion,right?From the interview it seemed like a cool concept for a character and even made sense,but I can't remember if Bruce is even part of Wayne corp anymore to make it work now.

Tim just reads a lot. If he is not reading comics, you see he is reading novels and other books with his GoodRead statuses.

Wow, totally didn't realize that GoodReads had comics all the way down to single issues. I've been using it for my reading for a while but had never thought to look for comics. Thanks for the heads up.

I read novels, too.
Though I'm usually doing literally anything else but reading comics. Well, I'm more likely to read comics than watch anime.
I'm more likely to be on the internet than reading comic, reading books, watching tv shows, playing games at this point. Been stuck in a major rut since the end of summer. :/
I'd really like to fly through Aftermath for instance but have zero energy for it.

You know, this is not an unfair point. For me it is more about the difference between the characters, though; there is more material to mine from Moon Knight in my opinion, and mine it he did. Karnak has always been one of my least favorite characters in comics...I recognized the glimmers of Ellis Magic while I was reading it, but it just wasn't enough to bring me around on the character. Moon Knight #1 stands head and shoulders above Karnak #1 not just because Ellis was on fire but because it was Moon Knight. Ellis certainly laid down some heat in Karnak #1 but it wasn't enough. Every time Karnak opened his mouth I wanted to close the book and never pick it up again. It was a real effort to finish it.
I found it pretty predictable too, from beginning to end nothing surprised me. Not so with Moon Knight.

Vader is supposed to be excellent, with most of the rest being good. The only real stinker is apparently Leia.
Cool thanks dude
Confirmed. Still reading Vader here, dropped Leia after 2 or 3.
That's a shame. A standout among standouts.

What post John's/Tomasi GL are good series to pick up? Looking at Guardians, GL, Sinestro, Red Lanterns and GLC #21* & onwards. I'm interested in Red Lanterns (with Soule I think it is) & Sinestro, wonder if it's worth picking up.
She was my fave character so far.
She's not terrible at all, if you liked her in New Hope you'll like her more in the other two. Her interactions with Han are the best. The book isn't even shit it is just kinda there. They should have waited and done something with her between Empire and Return of the Jedi.
Oh, so I finished the BPRD: 1946-1948 omnibus and BPRD: Vampire. So... Vampire should've totally been part of that omnibus as it's absolutely the resolution to at least the 1947-1948 parts. Hell, it honestly fits better than 1946. But oh well, all good stuff. (Also halfway through Being Human, and then I'll jump back to finishing off the Plague of Frogs omnibi by reading 4).
Also... why the heck does BPRD: Vampire have a "1" on the spine? When there's no indication that there should be a "2" coming to go with it?

Vader is pretty great. The main book is pretty good. I really liked Kanan - The Last Padawan, but it helps if you watch Star Wars Rebels. Haven't gotten to Leia or Lando yet. Chewbacca 1 was a lot of set up, it's hard to tell how good it will be.
I've been in a real Star Wars-y mood lately. The Battlefield beta kicked it off in me hardcore.
He looks like he did the fusion dance with Gambit.
Silly Monkey, explain these new Cavs uniforms.
Somebody got paid for this.
O____O It's an Ales Kot book in jersey form.
Dan Gilbert says one of these unis will debut tonight. So one is real.

Ain't that the truth.

There are no anime girls in that book
. couldnt you have gotten another figma or statue?Doesn't have to be. I stopped reading comics for years (DC was my go to) around the same time the Grant Morrison rebranded JLA, and Young Justice was introduced. So really anything between then and now (minus Kingdom Come, which I have)
Dan Slott seems to be back in form so far.

Hmm. Clean Room was pretty interesting.
Probably the best in the business.
