If this gives Thunderbolts back to him let DC hang because that was a book that was going places.

Soule's writing a ton of stuff at the same time so I'm down with seeing how good his comics can be when he's not also writing 7 other books.

I don't have any interest in his current Marvel projects, so hopefully he'll get something totally unrelated to those going.

Link to the notequote:"So why sign a deal at all, if things were so great?" Soule wrote. "Well, it’s pretty simple. Writing eight titles a month (which I’ve been doing for quite a while now) is no joke. It’s a constant tightrope walk, requiring serious focus and discipline. I’ve proven to myself that I can do it, but now that I have, it’s time for a different challenge -- I want to know what I can accomplish with a smaller slate, where I can really dive in. I’ve accomplished breadth, now I want to see about depth." And just like that, the GL family is dead for me

I will really miss Red Lanterns but you gotta really admire the insanity that is Charles Soule's work ethic. He writes 8 books, is a practicing attorney, AND runs the law firm he practices in.

Teenage Fansub posted:You should check out today's issue of the main Futures End. Speaking of, I'm impressed at how good was this week issue (I still question DC's Brainiac though), Eternal remains unimpressive while I really enjoyed most of the 5YL issues. The only real flops were Grayson and GL (and even then, GL wasn't that bad as long you ignore the plot holes and bullshit developments) Aquaman was also weak but I'm hoping is because is two issues instead of one. Detective was very entertaining if with some mixed art, Action Comics definitely will bear importance down the line on the main series, Batwing was pretty cool and hopeful for the setting while Phantom Stranger and Swamp Thing were utterly fantastic. Justice League was also pretty cool and it was satisfying to see the initial arc about Power Ring finish so soon.

Swamp Thing's Future's End was absolutely fantastic and could easily be an end to Soule's run, I'm really looking forward to Soule filling in the gaps up to that point but I'm sad he'll be dropping Red Lanterns as well as he goes Marvel exclusive. I was really hoping he could take over Constantine and fix it up given how great the Whiskey Tree arc in Swamp Thing was.

Location--New York Courtroom (bum bum) CS: Your honor, in this simple briefcase, I have the papers that PROVE, beyond any reasonable doubt, that my client is innocent of all charges and should be released immediately! Judge: Bring the evidence forward, please. CS dramatically pops open the case, looks inside, and pauses. He continues to stare downward, silent. Judge: Mr. Soule? Your evidence? CS: Um, Your Honor, I...I would like to call a motion to recess as instead of the documents that will save my client's life, I..I've inadvertently filed in this briefcase, instead, my script for She-Hulk #11, a delightful tour-de-force to be sure, but Judge: COURT ADJOURNED.

Doesn't Soule practice an area of law that doesn't necessitate many appearances in court? I seem to remember it's some kind of property law.

I know people here have a huge hate on for Simone, but I'm quite happy with her next project Secret Six. I was a huge fan of the original series and I'm glad Simone is back to write more, as I felt it really was her best writing. Looks like she is bringing back Catman, but I'm pretty sure she won't be allowed to use Deadshot as he is currently being used in Suicide Squad, which is sad because one of the best aspect of Secret Six was Catman bromance with Deadshot. Still I'm happy to see the title come back.

I don't think most people here hate Simone herself, just that she has been writing some pretty mediocre to bad books recently. Her Deadpool and Villians United is pretty well liked around here I think

Bane is locked on Eternal's bullshit, Black Alice only showed up on the He-Man crossover, Deadshot's on the Suicide Squad, Catman was MIA until now, Dollface showed up on a Batgirl issue and the others haven't appaeared at all on the N52.

From what I can remember, they were literally were just the lawyer reading out the case law for hours at a time. And it was almost always the same law over and over. But you had to go through the same formalities over and over again. If Soule had to do that over and over again, I could easily see himself writing comics as a way of staying sane.

At least he has his porn-stache back.

He dressed up as Dark Knight Returns Batman, took Talon as his Robin and rode around on a horse. It was glorious. Also, he broke Manu Bennet's back.

Weird that a few of those (JLU and JLD) actually have him drawing New 52 costumes... also weird to see a very N52 Cyborg smack in the middle of some very Silver Agey League designs.

Superman 32, it's kind of a soft reboot. Johns and Romita Jr. ignore a lot of "nu52 nonsense", bring Clark back to the Daily Planet, give him a new Superman analog to fight and it hits the high beats that Johns can do. Also has some of Romita Jrs best work in a while.

I think it's worth mentioning that this weeks Avengers 34.1 is a very good "Superman" story starring Hyperion, which is what brought it up. You don't need to read any other Avengers to get whats going on, but you could read Avengers #4, #12, and #13 if you want more Not Superman.
