Meanwhile Marguerite is out there dropping love bombs and quality on Bombshells while A-Force is being cancelled.
That has nothing to do with her lol.
R.E.B.E.L.S is pretty damn good, I think that was one of the first books I was buying floppies for.
Sure it does. Pay the woman more money and she could have stayed. Pay dat exclusive money.

But then Bombshells would be cancelled and she probably loves Bombshells more than Marvel exclusivity. Also I need more lesbian insects.
She wouldn't have been writing A-Force either way.
Why?

She wasn't writing it when ANAD started and I doubt they would've kicked the people already on the book off for her.

Oh, nice. Starfire is up for $88. That Spawn is tempting, too. But no one wants a Hank statue.
sent invites out for FF
need to stop looking at GAF in the cab back from drunk brunch

Tried the Battlefield 1 beta. Oh man that game is trash. Went back to Overwatch. Oh man that game is trash.
you could read comics?
I need to catch up on Black Panther, but going through the dcbs specials i have little desire to buy a random story BP World of Wakanda spin-off by various writers/artists.
Yeah they replaced her when she left. They wouldn't have needed to replace her if she didn't leave.
Wouldn't be hard to get the people off the book anyway...seems like no one wants to stay on the book more than a few issues.
She was writing Angela during ANAD with Wilson and Thompson doing A-Force.
She was writing Angela before during and after Secret Wars. She was also co writing A-Force with Wilson during Secret Wars. Thompson came after.
I know, which is why I don't get you saying that they replaced Bennett after she left.
Yeah they got a new writer when she left the book not the company.
Now I get you lol. We were talking about different things.
Marvel hadn't gotten to driving her out quite yet. That took a few more months.

Bought that Starfire statue because I fucking love Amanda Conner and her Starfire design.

In my opinion these are worth checking out in trade.
Earth 2 also good. I missed the part where you already read earth 2 stuff. Get that. Lovely art.
Loved Starfire so much I bought some art from it.
Of this list I would say:Midnighter, Martian Manhunter, Doctor Fate, Black Canary, and Starfire.

Only Doomed. The rest are ok.
This is TERRIBLE advice.
Awesome, thanks. That art page is BEAUTIFUL.
Okay now, something's wrong here.

These and add in that Superman mini, can't recall the name atm.
Edit, take off JLA, didn't read the whole thing. Thought it was Darkseid war. JLA was pretty shit.
Oh, American Alien? Definitely getting that one when it comes out. And thanks for the recs.
Emanuela Lupacchino is a really cool artist. She does half the run maybe a little bit more and Elsa Charretier does the rest of it. Really beautiful book.
Also it brings back
Terra
These are all good. The others I either did not read or did not enjoy as much.
We can be friends. You have good taste.

Not sure if you saw my edit, but I thought it said Justice League, not JLA. I liked Batman Beyond and Earth 2 because I like the character, but I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend them.
Also that Bizzaro Jimmy Olsen mini was really good if you want some light hearted comedy.
Thanks, you do too (aside from that one masochistic streak when you were hoping that Nocenti's Catwoman would turn around issue after issue).
^Messi, I'm not going to quote that because I don't want to see the spoiler. I'm not very far into Power Girl - Power Trip yet.
I'm surprised to see a couple of you say We Are Robin. I don't know why - I haven't heard anything BAD - but I just haven't really heard anything about it.
Oh okay, thanks. I was going to say, I didn't think people were too impressed with Hitch's DC stuff.

That Power Girl run was similar in tone to the Zatanna stuff you posted about earlier today. Starfire has a similar feel to it as well, so if you liked Zatanna and are liking Power Girl then you'll likely also enjoy Starfire (although I don't think it's quite as good as the other two).

The characters were really good and the set up was awesome. It got kind of sidetracked by Robin War but besides that I thought it was really good.
Nice. I'm sure I will enjoy it. I added the first volume to my wishlist.
Tell me the order for these:
We Are Robin
Robin War
Batman and Robin Eternal
and do all of those tie in or can something be taken out of there?

Doomed is $10. That's value.
She could have turned it around
.I agree with this. That is a nice set of books.
Starfire is exactly the kind of book she needed imo. Its fun and light with great art and characters. A nice book to read after something heavy.

We are Robing with Robing War in the middle of it. B&RE I can't really place. It was kind of weird with when it was taking place some times.
God damn edits, playing OW and talking don't mix.
There is a hardcover that collects all of Robin War together. Batman and Robin doesn't tie in.
