    Better than I thought it would be.

    1. As a monthly I would rate it a 3. The approach the author took wasn't conducive to clear storytelling IMO.
    As a collected book, I would rate it an 8. There were some really good bits in it...

    If it means anything, Supergirl has been excellent. Exceptionally different from what has come before. If you liked the Silver/Bronze Age Supergirl, you may not like this take on her. If you liked...

    I have said this since the beginning of the New 52, Supergirl is the one book that really did do something different and remarkable. Even with the revolving writers, this book has been great. These...

    While I think this happened because there were three artists and two(I think, I don't have the book in front of me so I can't check) inkers, I have seen this same problem with Jimmy Olsen. He looks...

    Poll: A little off topic...okay...a lot....

    I actually think "Baltimore" is really well written. You should try it.

    But yes, Mignola drawing Darksied now would be epic.

    I didn't say it above, but the other artists you mention here draw a great Darksied too. Each brings thier own take to the character and yet manages to communicate the 'Regal Menace' that he exudes.

    After Kirby, who the Poll acknowledges is the Supreme Darksied artist, I pick Walt Simonson also.

    Yeah, the Bond explanation makes sense too. I just liked the idea and I do hope Lobdell does something with it in the future.

  14. Richard Pryor

    For me, it was the scene in which Richard Pryor was synthesizing Kryptonite and it comes up some % unknown. So he puts Nicotine in it and says, "What the hell, he ain't gonna smoke it!"

    Oh yeah,...

    So Long Mr. Infantino

    I was looking for an appropriate place to comment on the passing of Carmine Infantino and I couldn't find one. So I am starting one here.

    Carmine Infantino's Superman loved to race the Flash....
  19. So glad its over....still sifting through its meaning.

    A better writer would have made this much clearer. I am not even sure your explanation is correct.

    Not to mention the fact that Morrison completely ripped off Peter Pan for his resolution to the story.

    Yes, comics should be fun and they aren't right now. The thing is, Morrison's run didn't...
