DETECTIVE COMICS #819 & BATMAN #653 - I can't be the only one who thinks that the 'Tec cover should have the half of Batman's face on the other side so you can line up the two covers and create one face. SUPERMAN RETURNS: THE MOVIE ADAPTATION - Who reads these? ALL-STAR SUPERMAN #4 - The Jimmy...

KINGDOM COME and JLA: YEAR ONE have a huge influence on how I read and think about comics to this day, and NO MAN'S LAND is still my favorite Batman story, other than YEAR ONE.

I didn't catch the GOTHAM KNIGHTS arc, but I do remember hearing it at least started well. Probably had a lot to do with what you said, bringing him back to early/trying to build him up into this huge deal. I do think he'd work a little better as a pulp villain than as the next big addition to...

I didn't read it, but I think the evidence keeps piling up that the whole "Hush" storyline was just a bad idea overall. Of all the things on the list to take care of during INFINITE CRISIS, they skipped over possibly the most important of all.

Bullseye and Milla aren't dead, that was all Matt's fantasy in the courtroom. Also, I believe he's only in jail with Fisk; I think they shipped them both off to that island at the end. I'll be back with full thoughts later. Yeah, pretty much I just wanted to be the first to point that out...

"Fantastic" might have been the wrong word choice. But especially the more recent stuff (i.e. when they got a bigger budget), the animation flows very well. At any rate, what I intended to say was that a lot of the humor works better spoken and animated (in that the animation is used to tell the...

I love science.

Vixen is the closest I can think of. But besides that time Grant Morrison talked about putting her in his superhero team on the floating city (can't remember when they went by...), she's seen more action in JLU than the comics.

I thought the same thing. That, and I miss those white eyes. That was, visually, the coolest part about her when she wasn't creating lightning storms all over the place.

The marriage of two characters I never gave a damn about, written and drawn by guys I've never heard of. I can't be the only one wondering why this is being played as such a big deal. Besides, of course, it being the first time in awhile Storm's been a part of an event as I recall.

That's a damn shame. I don't recall the endpieces of KILLING JOKE (it's been a year or two since I read it), but the "Imaginary story" text is what pretty much completed "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow" for me. It just took it to a whole different level. Damn shame. I picked up...

Absolutely. I take back my previous convictions (well...we'll see about Dini :D). Also, he replied in the thread for the story and said he was talking about plans for 2008. NOW I'm excited. Between that, him saying new ideas are coming like wildfire, and what read like genuine enthusiasm, I am...

I'd be shocked if they made this work. Family Guy is brilliant not just because of the writing, but the animation is fantastic (especially the fight scenes, better choreographed than a lot of movies). A lot of the jokes work because they'll cut to stuff out of nowhere. I don't think that kind of...

Overexposure is a problem. Without a doubt. Some solutions... 1) Two ongoing, mainstream titles per character, if the character demands it (i.e. ACTION COMICS and SUPERMAN). These two titles are separate from one another, free to tell whatever stories each creator has to tell, while sticking to...
