To jump on old bait, Electric Warriors has been neat. I like the one Dominator as an avenue of exploring how one of that race drifts from the characteristics we've come to expect. I'm staying away from Naomi for now because I don't feel like diving into another NEW CHARACTER GETS TO LEARN THE MOST IMPORTANT STUFF EVER! but if folks here respond well I'll go back for it. My defective brain loves BIG SECRETS but I can't bite every time.

Sounds like I'll try to get Naomi next week if there's any left at my shop. I think I only saw the art focused variants by the time I made it there yesterday.

I'm actually kinda impressed at the restraint as well, save for scans image John's receding hairline

Teenage Fansub posted:Seemed like it's just something that happened on that alternate Earth. Yeah, this is a far cry from like THE BIGGEST SECRET IN THE DC UNVERSE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. With the whole podunk town angle I was initially thinking it'd be like Avengers Standoff or something where the whole town was involved in whatever was going down, but nope. I guess we have one more issue to see if there is some super big secret for reals.

"Event Leviathan" is a really odd official way of referring to it and I hope that we get an explanation and that it's at least mildly interesting.

glitchwraith posted:I picked up Leviathan Rising mainly for Rucka and Fraction, but enjoyed the main plot of "Villains kidnap Clark Kent as bait for Superman, who goes along with it for a story, only to get actually trapped by the kryptonite meant to trap Superman." I'm a bit disappointed that isn't the plot of the whole event, as a team of super detectives racing against the clock to rescue Superman is a pretty decent hook. Sadly, I lost interest as soon as he was rescued this issue, as I couldn't care less about the secret identity of Mysterious Mech Hood. Yeah, and I wanna know what happened with Gorilla Jimmy. Did I, uh, miss a huge chunk of other things happening?

It was pretty trippy; thus far though I think I liked the becoming a Darkstar issue best.

Teenage Fansub posted:You'll be fine with those two. Thus far, The Green Lantern just feels like it's sticking to its own thing, being a neat canvas for Morrison to Morrison. I don't tend to read ahead in solicits so IDK if there's any planned crossovers or whatever in the future, though.

Rhyno posted:I do miss trying to come up with new variations on mocking his name. mentally I went with "dank titty memes" tbh Content: of all things, the chapter titles in Justice League Dark had a really nice feel to them, for me. A bit of an uncommon thing to note, but hey, I like me some typography.

Hey, so I think I missed something by not reading other series. Regarding the end of Justice League, had it been previously established that Kamandi was in contact with Batman Beyond and allies?

BrianWilly posted:Oh man, Wonder Woman: Dead Earth is definitely some wild poo poo. Lotsa gore, lotsa nuclear apocalypse orphans, lotsa thunderdomey stuff. You get the picture. I was gonna ream it slightly for not really having much to do with Wonder Woman, per se, besides some obligatory Hippolyta/Steve flashbacks, but...there's a scene that comes near the end of the issue that made me go oh snap, thank you yes. This is definitely still Diana. They actually do still get it. I was pretty excited for Wonder Woman: Dead Earth. I picked up Daniel Warren Johnson's title from a few months ago, Murder Falcon, on a whim and I came to absolutely love that. There's a grittiness to his art that feels really good for monsters, like in that series and this, and it works pretty darn well with the post-apocalyptic setting.

As someone with what feels like an irrational appreciation for Mister Terrific, I'm also surprised this didn't get canceled along with those other titles or debuted alongside, but I'm glad to be getting Mister Terrific content all the same.

the past several issues have had a dinkload of bizarro speak so I have to be careful about how much of the dialogue i have to negate in order to interpret it properly

Honestly now that I think about it, I find it funny that Snyder's used the whole "make everyone earth psychically align themselves with a heroic or villainous mindset" point in two books this past year. Justice League and that Batman: Last Knight On Earth one.

Yeah, I expected it to get cancelled a long time ago, honestly. I'm glad we got more Mister Terrific, he's someone I always thought wasn't used enough, but maybe sparingly is fine.

I've been enjoying it a lot but also Daniel Warren Johnson is one of my favorite folks in comics as of late so it was an instant pickup for me.

Joker title sounds interesting but I've found Rosenberg off-putting alas. Will probably check out the Riddler book, though, always love a good story with that fella.
