I don't like them either but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt until I actually check it out. Josh Williamson isn't writing it so it has a chance at least.

Well said.
Really, really, really couldn’t agree more
Couldn’t agree more
I do understand that your point has more to do with burnout on characters and a preference for characters you feel are being overlooked.
All I want to see is Elongated Man to come back (he has...
This is a thing that has always baffled me. I have my favorite characters too but good comics aren't good because of which characters are in them; they're good because good creators make them.
...
If you don’t like it, vote with your dollars against Johns’ latest venture. Readers have suffered these kinds of delays from books he was writing since he returned to DC after leaving to pursue...
As the next poster noted, there was Ultraa the Multi-Alien and Ultraa from Earth-Prime. I was referring to the second.
Ultraa from E-Prime first appeared in JLA (in the 70s IIRC). I don’t think he...
Ultraa!!! A poster after my own heart. I miss the heck out of Ultraa.
Snyder made Mera a member for several issues in a row but she was window-dressing with about 5 unremarkable lines that could have come from anyone.
So has she been a member? Officially, yes. In...
If DC doesn’t give JL to Waid, King, or Priest, I’d be very happy to see Taylor get that gig.
You can't pin either Ric Grayson or Alfred's death on King. Even Percy wasn't going to write Ric Grayson or that long and awful storyline. And King intended for Alfred's death to be a fake-out.
I...
Never ever did I think I’d say this, but Tim Sheridan’s Alan Scott GL has been so good I think he might be a really good option for JSA.
Right.
In reverse order… JSA, Shazam, Doomsday Clock, Three Jokers.
Aren’t those his 4 most recent DC projects, with one notable exception at the bottom of this post?
I remember that Three...
Maybe it’s the other way around. Maybe they’re waiting for people to forget about the movie (both versions).
I’ve been thinking that since somewhere around ‘86 or ‘87.
If we can't get King (highly unlikely) or Waid (around 50% likely I'd say), Priest would be a fantastic writer for JL. His all-too brief, fill-in run between Hitch's and Snyder's was very underrated...
I don't think anyone has mentioned the major character that seems to die in this issue.
Seems to me more like Dark Crisis again with the same death fake-out for the very same character.
I think Waid's WF stuff is about the pre-Crisis Bronze Age more than anything. His JLA: Year One was post-Crisis I think, a retcon in which case he wouldn't be repeating himself at all. A Bronze Age...
As ever, Elongated Man.
You’ve obviously gamed this out with a good deal of thought and I haven’t, but my guess would be that if you’re retired and don’t have to do anything but read DC Comics, from waking to sleeping every...
I’m reading this question as ongoing series that didn’t last more than 20 issues, but I have seen several limited series, so I’m just going to say that apart from the controversial Heroes in Crisis...
NO.
10 years of BAD movies (excepting the first WW and Gunn’s TSS) damaging the DC brand unbelievably badly.
i’m glad it’s finally getting a mercy killing. I mean, 10 years?? How could anyone...
It’s wild to me that every DC fan doesn’t have this already. It’s basically every DC comic ever for less than $10/month. Some old ones are missing but they add more of the older, missing issues every...
His creator Denny O’Neill pronounced it /Rahz all Gool/.
Just a lucky guess but, since childhood, I’d always pronounced it that way too.
