DC Comics Thread

Countdown wasn’t so bad. This might actually deliver, but then again so did the hype towards IC. Kinda sucks that I wasn’t there for the Dini signing on Thursday. That fucker would have signed my 3 volumes of Batman TAS.

Is it just me, or was the last issue of Teen Titans pretty boring? It…meh. Nothing too big. Didn’t leave as much of an impact as the pre-OYL TT stuff. I don’t think I’ve ever read any of Sean Mckeever’s stuff before. So, I’ll be reading this with an openmind and wait till I have a copy of his TT in my hands.

Heh, I liked the last issue myself though this image posted by Zechs of Newsarama making fun of the artwork and story is TOO FUNNY! Glad I saved the image because it doesn’t show up on Newsarama anymore.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

coughww3cough

looks at pile

That was Keith Champagne and John Ostrander.

i meant the build up prior to ww3. not the writer/artist. i failed :sad:

Awesome. I can get behind that, since he’ll probably do a good job regarding the tension of the group.

I still don’t know about him doing BOP though…:sweat:

…So, is All Star Batman and Robin 5 REALLY gonna come out tomorrow? Or should I assume it’s pushed back to 2009?

Looks like McKeever is making lots of changes already, check out this interview and the cover to his first issue, including a lineup change…

TT Lineup

Spoiler

Blue Beetle and Supergirl are joining! New lineup is Robin, Wonder Girl, Miss Martian, Kid Devil, Ravager, and those two. Does this mean that Cyborg and Jericho are out?

McKeever is on the right path IMO, good times lie ahead.

I would like to see a seperate series with some of the older Titans though, since most of them aren’t doing anything now. Would be sweet…

Picked up JLA today. I’m so confused. Probably gonna have to read it again.

McKeever announced his Titans lineup starting at issue #50, at newsarama:

Robin
Kid Devil
Blue Beetle
Supergirl
Miss Martian
Ravager
Wonder Girl

zephy needs to show proof of his hanging up xforce #1 on his wall

He didn’t do it, says he lost the issue… :rolleyes:

His official response -

“Didn’t you get the memo? Week 51 shipped a day late in Siberia. There was a link on Newsarama, look it up. No one guessed the correct date, so I guess we all lost. Or we all won. Either way, it turns out I “misplaced” my X-Force #1. But I know you got my back; you’re still buying Liefeld/Loeb’s Onslaught miniseries, right? ZING”

He’s a good guy and all but he is still a bet welcher. :rofl:

i’m gonna ask him about it this weekend in front of bru

Cool man. If he really can’t do it I will some comic cover done by Robbie L, put it on my fridge and take a picture. I don’t have X-Force #1 so I’ll have to dig through my comics and see what I have. Don’t say I never took a bullet for anybody. :lol:

get that pinup with a gigantic Captain America!

Latest Flash issue was pretty good. It’s actually going somewhere compared to the first 8 issues.

I also have a prediction for Countdown which stems back to pre-IC hype last year:

Countdown Prediction

Spoiler

Seeing as how the Joker denied knowledge of Duela, I’m gonna go with Jason Todd being Earth 2 Robin. Bet it.

Wow, when you guys want blood you really want blood!

No problem, I will find it and order it online if Zeph doesn’t… Batman up. “Holy corny comic book puns Batman!” :looney:

DC Comics I read this week:

All Star Batman & Robin - What the heck was up with Wonder Woman in this book? I swear Frank Miller is writing a sitcom… picking this up just for the artwork like always…

Batman - Speaking of what the heck…

Batman

Spoiler

So Batman’s baby boy Damian is mutating to a big monster and kicking Batman’s ass? Say it ain’t so Morrison what are you doing?

Checkmate - Ah, the only book that had Nightwing in it this week but nothing much going on, kind of boring. Much like I praised Outsiders last week because Rucka cowrote that book with Winick, I’m blaming Checkmate this week on Winick cowriting it with Rucka. Man I just blame Winick for everything. :rofl:

JLA - You know I read the previous JLA issue and the JSA issue that came prior to this one and I was still a little confused… nothing major but it sure hurt my head there for a bit… Nice art though like always.

Countdown - Too good! Favorite DC comic of the week!

Countdown

Spoiler

Mirror Master snorting a line of cocaine on the other side of that mirror table was golden!

Not really a great DC week for me overall. I didn’t get the chance to pick up the third Batman Black & White book that came out though. Not yet anyway.

I have a spoiler that Didio slipped out relating to yours…

Didio
