    Would you recommend the current LOSH?

    Would any of you recommend the current LOSH? I've been meaning to get into the book(I've never really read any Legion books). I held off because I sort of had a little cringey reaction to Bendis's...

    I think it can be read on its own, but I would strongly suggest reading all of the Rebirth Justice League Dark. I haven't read a whole lot of Wonder Woman, but from what I have, I absolutely love...

    Fyi, there are two Adam Hughes variants, maybe more, but definitely two that I know of. There is the 2000's variant, and then there's what's called a Trade Dress Variant(I've never heard this term...

    Maybe Flintstones from a couple of years ago. The buzz around it at my LCS grew exponentially from where it seemingly started with indifference. I thought the same kind of phenomenon happened in...

    I have a question, and I want to apologize first because I'm sure the answer is somewhere in here, but there are 455 pages on this subject. Anyway, I read the Man of Steel miniseries, and I was...

    I loved this so much. I thought it was filled with fun which a lot of books lack. I have no context for what Jimmy Olsen and his original comic used to be like, but I don't feel I'm missing...

    I thought there'd be more discussion surrounding this book. I loved it. Maybe it was more of "a hodge-podge of various other stories," but I get the feeling it's riding the current wave of '80s...

    I was recently trying to find a first print Batman #1 from the New 52 when I saw a Walmart version on eBay. The listings that acknowledged they came from a Walmart bundle were cover price or less...

    A full reboot would definitely work, but I've been enjoying what's happened in JLU with the team, so I'd be happy if they gave a LOSH book to Lemire and let him do what he wants. I think at this...

    I'd be happy with any kind of LOSH book. WestPhillyPunisher's idea sounds great. I'd also take a LOSH book written by Jeff Lemire with art by Bill Sienkiewicz. Gender-wise, I'd be excited if they...

    I voted for Swamp Thing, although the only reason I started reading Red Lanterns was Soule's writing on ST, so I'm sad to see both those titles go. Although I would've stuck with ST with a new...
