Other Media 2: It's Astounishing!
Discussion of comics, graphic novels, and more. Except for capes. No capes!
Please use spoiler font for new releases until after the weekend following release.
Batgirl's new background. Hmmph. No Oracle at all.
Man, I just stirred up a minor shitstorm asking about the reboot on IO9. But at least I have found some people who don't hate the idea. It's seriously the first time.
The alternative section at Golden Apple has atrophied since the last time I was here. Very sad.
So I bought JL #1, because I'm stalking Batfamily appearances in the 52, and it was a whole lot of nothing. NOTHING HAPPENED. Batman escapes the cops, meets GL. Or vice versa. Vic Stone is not a cyborg, has daddy issues. Superman hits GL, threatens Batman.
And we're done.
And we're done.
That's not a story. That's not even the set up of a story.
Not even slightly. It's like they took a coffee break 1/3 of the way through writing and arting.
So apparently Dark Horse will be issuing a comic that covers some of the territory between the end of Avatar: the Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra. Starts coming out in January.
Okay, yeah. I need to get to my comic store and re-vamp my pulls down to only Blue Beetle. And maybe Teen Titans.
And I don't have much faith that Blue Beetle won't suck, either.
