    Maybe it's just my age but as someone who grew up with the "Satellite Era" JLA and Giffen/DeMatteis era JL I couldn't disagree more. Honestly, I think more often than not the Big 7 hurts the League....

    This comparison has been made by the comics community for decades and it predates the internet. The first Moon Knight series written by Doug Moench (my favorite Moon Knight and the one I grew up on)...

    Tim is DC's character to do with as they will and I have no dog in the fight one way or another other than Tim being my favorite Robin. If DC wants to change Tim's sexuality or have him explore it...

    Or Crisis 102548.1

    Yet another reboot that adds little and what it does add will be rebooted again in a few years. Multiverse, the other Multiverse, that other (but supposedly different)...

    A lot of good stuff previously mentioned so I'll try not to repeat.

    Legion of Superheroes. The original Levitz is good stuff as is Abnett and Lanning's Legion Lost story

    I don't really like that they made Alan Scott gay. The post-Flaspoint Alan Scott from James Robinson wasn't really the original so him being gay was fine, he was a new character with a new identity....

    Bloodshot & Rotten Tomatoes

    I read the article "Bloodshot Is Better Than Any MCU Film of the Past 5 Years" on CBR and it referred to the poor 31% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I understand the influence and importance of Rotten...

    Please define “not working”, I believe the X-Men still sold well so assuming that people buy what they enjoy it seems it was working. We didn’t get characters “changing and growing and evolving and...

    While that may be true it's because they aren't being written like the characters they are. Don't get me wrong, I love Hickman's work - East of West is one of my favorite comics - and I find the...

    Southern Bastards

    If I remember right Southern Bastards was just on hiatus but I am beginning to think it is just done. Any official word?

    I abandoned Marvel and DC around the time DC launched the NU52 and really...

    Doomsday Clock - Does anyone still care?

    When this series launched my initial reaction was "Another unnecessary addition to Watchman, sigh". Then I started reading it an i thought "This is pretty good!". Now I saw an article on CBR and...

    Well, this new origin is better than some Hawkman has had. To be honest, Geoff Johns did a great job fixing the character's back story but couldn't just let it stand.

    brandnewfan, I feel your pain but for different reasons. I went from buying a huge amount of DC titles pre-Nu52 to just a handful of titles and then none. Flashpoint and the Nu52 just turned me off....

    Of course she should. It should happen in major event intended to drive sales, derail any character development and spawn a dozen mini-series. Marvel should create a ton of hype that "It Will Change...

    I have to agree. King can be a talented writer but like many others he writes characters to serve the story and gets the characterization all wrong as a consequence. Take Booster Gold, just like...

    If events are your thing then keep reading them but I also would recommend staying away from them. If there is a writer or artist you like then jump on one of their titles. I also find it easier to...

    Storm’s ignored mutant power

    So I read X-Men Prime and I also read X-Men Gold #1 and I was wondering something. Does Storm wear wigs or does she have the mutant ability to grow hair really fast? I can't think of any other way...
