    Demon Knights - Amazing book. Definitely check it out.

    Frankenstein: Agent Of Shade - Very fun book. Kinda B.A. too with a lot of the fights. I think it is pretty underrated. May have to worry about it getting canceled soon. :(

    Resurrection Man - I haven't read any of it but I haven't heard anything positive about it either. May have to worry about it getting canceled soon.

    Justice League Dark - I haven't read any of it but I haven't heard but positive about this one either. However, Jeff Lemaire is about to start writing it and he has been phenomenal since the reboot so it is a definite book to keep an eye on.

    Hope all this helped.

    I meant in terms of reviews or hype. This thread is of course going to have people talk about it but I don't want to say that I heard it was amazing based off a few people who have already given their opinion before me.

    It's worse than buying into a time share somewhere.

    So, if I can't hold it, it's just "in the cloud" somewhere, it earns those quotation marks. 'Cuz it's more theoretical than real to me.

    Crap. When is he leaving?

    Issue 9 is Lemire's last. I wouldn't worry too much, though: it's being taken over by Matt Kindt, who is not only every bit as good as Lemire but a close friend and occasional collaborator with Jeff, so I expect the quality to remain strong.

On a side note, I've also given the 1st seven issues of SUICIDE SQUAD a try & I've really enjoyed that series too!!! I now ask that the community further assist me in terms of your opinions on DEMON KNIGHTS, RESURRECTION MAN & FRANKENSTEIN AGENT OF SHADE. Are any of these 3 series worth picking up? How would you rate the main characters, villains and adventures so far? Once again I thank you all in advance!



    ps. I'd also appreciate opinions on JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK as well-thanks!!!
    All of them are worth reading. I've enjoyed all three of them immensely (and JL: Dark too, since you asked). So I'd say pick 'em all up and given them a go.

    I'm sure of the branding, but I think James Robinson's Shade maxi-series is a Dark book. It has been a great read. Demon Knights is the only book you cite that I read. I love period pieces and Cornell is telling a cross-genre tale with action/horror/romance/comedy/sci-fi all wrapped in one book that telles the past of the New 52.

    Demon Knights, Resurrection Man, JLDark.

    I see R-Man as becoming almost a noir thriller, with the character most likely to find endless depths-of-character: apparently he's not been a very good guy in the past, and in fact, as said above, at times misses that guy, but finds himself repeatedly feeling compelled to do the hero thing. JLDark is fun, but I can't really see Constantine as a group member; John C a team player? Nunh-uh. But the focus (so far) has been Mde. Xanadu, and that's okay with me. Franky... just never interested me this series.
    MAAH two cents!

    I'm pretty sure that DnA will stay with Resurrection Man considering he's their character.

    I'm reading all three and they are all worth picking up. Although, I would pick Frankenstien and Demon Knights over Resurrection Man.
