The best part about doom Patrol is it uses all but the lovely Byrne run.

I enjoyed the Arcudi Doom Patrol quite a bit, even though [because] it was basically like 22 issues of infighting, failure, and weirdness. Very little actual super-teaming, even when they were doing exactly that.

Young Animal's on my pull list for the first 6 of each series, then I'll wait for sales. This plan has only led to more fun each Wednesday. DC made a series of good calls with this imprint.

So uh I just read Keith Giffen's run to prepare for this, because Morrison's Doom Patrol is still my favorite comic. People actually liked this comic? People actually thought this was a good use of Morrison's stories? People actually thought mr. nobody smashing the toys face in was good comics and not just the usual dc trash? I really hate Dc comics at this point and this run was full of reminders why. I like the new young animal comic alright but I kind of wish they'd just have started a new continuity with a similar ideas and themes instead of continuing to drag out a long and confused continuity with characters who don't really have anywhere to go now. Make some original new characters with super powered injuries. I just really don't like continuity and passing characters between writers at this point.

I'm not sure Giffen's run carries much acclaim at all. All you'll ever hear about is the Morrison's and maybe the original. e: Saying that, I'd really like to try Arcudi's series. That's the one they don't care enough to put on Comixology. Mr Hootington posted:Edit: I'm thinking about dropping Shade. 6 issues in and the art is gorgeous, but I'm not thrilled by the story.

As of today's Doom Patrol issue, yeah, still going strong here. Not 5/5 all-time greatest run or anything, but it's been funpredictable.

I didnt love it but it was pretty fine mos tof the way thru (though i wish they'd just avoided Mr. Somebody because it was pointless). I did love how they ended it, though. Having Ambush Bug tell the villains the book was cancelled and they just decide "Oh, never mind then. See ya!" and walking away from the teased fight was such a bizarre way to end the book. fake edit: "Cancelled? How? No, I have no clue what a Didio is!"

Doom Patrol is on hold after issue 6 (the Mike Allred drawn one) until further notice. https://www.bleedingcool.com/2017/03/29/gerard-ways-doom-patrol-cancelled-6-now/ I'm guessing the art can't keep up and we'll get someone new. Shame.

I can't imagine it sells any worse than the rest of the YA line. If nothing's happening to them, I wouldn't worry about it.

It's indicative of the trend that Doom Patrol can't hit its deadlines. They'll get someone more on the ball. At my shop, at least, Cave, Doom Patrol, and Shade all have a decent number of people with it on their pull list, Mother Panic is less so, but still higher than stuff like Blue Beetle, Birds of Prey, or Hellblazer.

From the YA panel at Wondercon, Doom Patrol #7 will be released in July. And Bug will kick off an event later in the year which will tie the comics together in some way. https://www.bleedingcool.com/2017/03/31/young-animal-crossover-coming-fall-young-animal-gerard-way-wondercon-panel/

Catching up on Shade #7 and WTF TEACUP? Poor Loma. Looking forward to seeing her complete her Earth To Do list though. And I wish Marguerite Sauvage could illustrate every issue, good grief. It was absurdly gorgeous.

DC's putting out a YA 'mixtape' for Record Store Day that consists of a picture disc record with Way's Cave Carson songs, and an exclusive Mike Allred drawn mini comic. https://www.instagram.com/p/BSmZ7ESAMCn/ https://www.instagram.com/p/BSnS4SQAPdH/

It was way more of a Keith Giffen comic than a Grant Morrison comic and it was sort of smashing up a bunch of Morrison detritus with Giffen detritus with general DC detritus so jumping from 1993 Grant Morrison to 2010 DC Universe is undoubtedly jarring but I'd take that over whatever sort of tone-deaf cover band thing going on in the current DP book any day of the week.

Crazy pumped for Bug. I was just gonna finish reading New Gods as prep, but I heard Cosmic Odyssey is referred to, so I'm finally getting on that too. I'll be delayed for a few days, but Mike Mignola Fourth World isn't the worst homework!

Was horrified to pick up the new Shade and see that Loma's fled to the absolute worst place she could possibly choose: Gotham. Even Middlesbrough would be a better bet.

I LOVED the second issue of Bug. It's exactly the slapdash collection of DC history I was looking for in YA. I really dug the look of the robots.
