No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.

I like the idea of Lemire being back but why can't he do a good solo book though and play to his strengths?

What are the odds on Shaner actually drawing more than one full issue?

He's drawing less than one at the moment. He probably designed them, but it's Ivan Reis on the comic.

Edit: 'Brimstone' from Justin Jordan and Philip Tan.

This is actually hilarious.

(Alternatively, watch Marvel railroad this by announcing an actual FF return in the next five minutes or something)

(I don't actually think they'll do that but wouldn't it be a hoot?)

If Pearlmutter mysteriously died in the next 48 hours I'm sure it would happen. But then again I wouldn't put it past him to have the Marvel Bullpen synced to his black heart and destroy itself when he dies.

I liked Azz’s Wonder Woman but a lot of the rest of what you listed is garbage. N52 Superboy? Seriously? Even liking Red Hood like you do I find it hard to believe you or anyone could have liked N52 Superboy.

The N52 was a creative failure and a long and painful drown out one that took DC years to admit. And lucky for us they eventually did. That’s not to say there weren’t a few nuggets of quality in there, but it was a rough few years.

Swamp Thing, Animal Man, Justice League, ivampire, Dial H, Demon Knights, Jeff Lenire's Green Arrow, Justice League Dark, Justice League Canada, Frankenstein agent of shade, Fury of Firestorms, G Morrisons Action Comics, Batman Eternal, the first 24 issues of Earth 2. I could go on forever.

New 52 was a success that could have been an even bigger success if DC actually planned it out better and didn't let editors mismanage it. It refreshed and overhauled the DCU when it desperately needed it and for that I'm grateful.

I'd be much more interested if it were a solo Mr. Terrific book. And not at all related to this Dark Matter stuff.

Well Mr. Terrific had a solo at the start of the N52 and it was pretty ghahahahhah I can't finish that sentence.

Black Hammer is one of the best books of the year for me but his DC stuff was rough. Animal Man was great till Rotworld but good Justice league stuff was very meh. I think he is a guy that does better independent stuff and I thought he was done with the big two after his Marvel stuff ended.

In spite of several more characters being turned into gays or racial minorities due to the new 52 reboot, you mean?

So whatever happened with All-Star Batman and Robin? Not the current ASB, the "Goddamned Batman" Frank Miller-Jim Lee gong show from like 10+ years ago. The art was pretty good, the story pretty meh, but I'm just super curious to understand why they never finished the thing. It seemed to be selling well, and DC did put out an Absolute edition (which seemed bizarre given that there was no conclusion to the story).

Ok what the gently caress was Superman this week?

The shittiest most jingoistic Superman comic I've ever personally read. And the story with the homeless vet was like something you'd read in a viral "poo poo that didn't happen" Facebook clickbait video. And then Clark told off the waitress. You could have heard a pin drop. And that homeless vet's name was Albert Einstein.

On the other hand, I was pretty sick of the running kite man gag,and then Batman went and made me actually care about and like the character. Hell yeah.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
