Maybe we need to change our format back so we can have them on the other site...despite our sporadic deadline-free schedule.Matthewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03894454259041852707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997969522623175126.post-61807439265894258342013-08-21T17:17:42.712-07:002013-08-21T17:17:42.712-07:00I did order the last two issues of LOSH, figured I...I did order the last two issues of LOSH, figured I should see how it ends.

I sort of liked the massive Infinity #1 (despite the Spacenights being eradicated from existence) and I looked at the tie-ins this week. Looked like both issues ended the same way -- didn't look like they went anywhere. So, I skipped them. I'm mildly interested in Green Arrow, but most of DC is dead to me right now. Superman Unchained is really disappointing. I do like Batman, despite the rehash. I'm waiting for the new New 52 or whatever they'll be calling it. Kevin Maguire did a Legion issue (last one) this week - you might want to check it out.Matthewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03894454259041852707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997969522623175126.post-34414656675477112022013-08-21T11:10:21.578-07:002013-08-21T11:10:21.578-07:00Couldn't agree more.

Worse, I heard Infinity isn't self-contained, that you will have to read Hickman's other books to get the whole story. Immediately after Infinity, Bendis will launch his Ultimate line event. Talk about event fatigue. Heck, even Animal Man and Swamp Thing lost me during that drawn out crossover between the two. The Red, the Green, the Rot.....who cares? Just tell a good story that's done in a couple of issues so I don't have to spend $100 on something just to see if I like it or not.Jeff Sibleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13712579966417094910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997969522623175126.post-79779922085364680252013-08-20T21:07:35.272-07:002013-08-20T21:07:35.272-07:00Well said.

Trinity War is shaping up to be a "trigger" for the next launch of a new DC event as well it seems.ARShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01449004948708758823noreply@blogger.com
