    Tons of good stuff coming out of DC right now.

    This is the best Superman has been in years, since the early days of Tomasi's run in 2016. GL is exactly what you expect and want from Morrison on the title. Doomsday Clock is late as hell all the time but each issue is legit the best stuff Johns has ever done. Shazam is really solid too. JL is crazy and wild and fun. Deathstroke.....I gotta catch up on my trades but it doesnt sound like the quality has dropped. Young Justice is starting strong. The rest of the Wonder line looks good, though I'm trade waiting those. Way's Young Animal, the New Age line, especially Sideways (he might return, who knows?) and Terrifics......basically all the imprints and YA OGN's are things I can get behind. Like Didio, I also want to see comics break into new distributions and markets. We need fresh blood.

    Flash Year One sounds interesting, and Superman Year One should be....engaging, if nothing else.

    Oh! And DC just stole another major Marvel artist with....David.....crap......M.....whatever his name is! Marquez? His name eludes me at the moment but he's one of the best in the business, and he's going to be on Superman-Batman. That's nice.

    When Mark Russell was questioned by a fan on his Twitter feed about Wonder Twins, and that it was only a 6 issue run, he replied that he wanted to do more with the characters after that run.

    Whether or not that comes to fruition, I guess that is up to Wonder Comics.

    Bingo. Bendis's comics and his Wonder Comics label will do most of their sales in TPBs and digitally.

    Was that before or after DC pulling the rug on Russell's Second Coming series?

    Oh yeah, I forgot about those. My wife is getting them and loving them (especially Hex Wives, apparently) but I haven't taken the time to sit down and read any of it. Maybe once the semester ends in a couple weeks.

    Russell strikes me as a smart enough freelancer to not take it personally. Second Coming quickly found a new publisher and Russell isn't going to turn down a good paying gig writing a book he enjoys because DC's new president got skittish when Bat-penis was dumped on her lap on her first week on the job.

    Two issues in and I'm really enjoying Dial H for Hero. Here's hoping the book can keep it up.
