After reading Forever Evil #6 I'm quite pleased that my assessment of it being a super lovely retelling of JLA: Earth 2 is almost spot on.

It's listed on my invoice as arriving tomorrow. They can't hold up their entire line just because of one late book.

So spoilers are just hunky dory these days? Good because Batman Eternal #1 is loving terrible. Like, how the gently caress is Snyder's name attached to this pile of poo poo? Jim Gordon fires a gun at a thug and it sets off a chain reaction that derails a subway car that apparently killes a hundred plus people. He does this with a single bullet. And is then arrested on the spot by a junior officer. Oh and the book opens with Batman loving crucified some point in the future.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:That sounds like the kind of stupid poo poo Tynion wrote on Red Hood. Well both their names are on it but you can bet your rear end Snyder just scribble a plot on a napkin and handed it off. This is nearly as bad as the early N52 Detective and TDK issues.

They can count each book as 4 monthlies and thus eliminate 12 lovely selling books and still maintain the "New 52" bullshit.

Senor Candle posted:I thought all these weekly series were going to be a few months. I can't believe they are going to be running 3 weekly series at once. That is insane. Dan Didio is obsessed with making a weekly book that gets more praise and positive critical review than "52" did. He hated that book so much, hated half the guys working on it and when they did Countdown he made the "52 done right" comment numerous times. These weeklies are probably a result of him reading a review of DC's last three weekly projects and pretty much everyone poo poo on Countdown and Trinity, both his babies.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:I totally forgot about Trinity. Did that thing meant anything at the end? Even Busiek seems to think the book was pointless by the end. Senor Candle posted:Even in the trades of 52 he is saying that he didn't like how they were doing the book. It's incredible. I know! How the hell do you get away with being that much of a dick and not lose half of your best talent? I mean, that was what lead Waid and Rucka to bailing out. Didio is personally responsible for losing both of them an JG Jones from their talent pool.

Die Laughing posted:Trinity is so vanilla ice cream, I have nothing good or bad to say about it. But it was still a pretty tight book even after he left. The only real hiccup was that WW3 thing they forced in there. Senor Candle posted:I'm talking out of my rear end here but I always associated those guys with coming on after that stuff. Johns isn't putting out the same kind of great stuff that he used to and I'm honestly surprised that Azzarello is still there. I like some of Lemire's DC stuff but his creator owned work is so much better it's not even comparable. Like the fact that the guy who wrote and drew Essex County was involved with Rotworld is mind boggling. Oh no I meant that they have new talent joining the company now, despite Didio being a known jackass at the company.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:Going with that interpretation, Wally doesn't exist yet since the newspaper clip on Future's Barry room says than a Teenager died. I'm leaning at BC loving up their article and Wally dying on the present with Future Barry being eaten by the guilt for twenty years...hmmm, wasn't that the plot of Flashpoint? That's more likely based on the actual contents of the issue.

I hear he's legit playing a major role in Future's End. There was an issue of his series where I thought something important was actually going to happen, loving Pariah showed up.

Reading the forums it seems like they have been on a slide for quite a few years now. Marvel and Image seem to be gobbling up the market share DC is shedding. Last time DC had their collective poo poo together? 52 and One Year Later.
