    Default UGGH!! Truth And Justice Is Just Turning In To Another Bat Book!

    I had such high hopes for this book, even when they instantly moved away from the team-up aspect that was used to describe the first issue!
    I thought it might be cool if the alternated the issues between a level characters/JLA members and other DC characters, but it seems now that all we’ll be getting is members of the Bat family!

    relax, it's just two stories. it's truly not that deep.
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    One of my least favorite things about DC. They force Batfolks in EVERYTHING! So many endless characters they could have used for this anthology. I'm dropping it. I bet the next story will be about Catwoman.

    Yeah I had high hopes that this book would showcase some seldom used characters. The first issue with Vixen, Impala, and Dr. Mist was great! But Bat characters have already taken it over.

    But Batman is the only thing at DC that sells, so I really can’t blame them too much.

    Yes you can blame them when they have other books showcasing Bat folks. So there is already a place for them.

    You need a place for Jaime Reyes and others. Not a stupid Round Robin tourney.

    We are talking what one issue. The world will NOT end if this series showcased a Donna Troy or Gunfire or Cyborg for one issue.

    Here’s a solution stop buying Bat books all together if it impacts you so much

    After Vixen opened the book, I was really hoping this book would feature characters that don't have their own books/back-up series already. It's not like there's a shortage of these characters:


    Aquaman
    Mera
    Hawkman
    Hawkwoman
    Zatanna
    Firestorm
    Atom I & II
    Black Lightning
    Dr. Light II
    Captain Atom
    Fire
    Ice
    Rocket Red
    Sargon The Sorcerer
    Black Orchid
    Bumblebee
    Red Star
    Amazing Man
    Liberty Belle
    Power Girl


    I could go on and on but you get the idea....
    Currently(or soon to be) Reading: Alan Scott: Green Lantern, Batman/Superman: World's Finest, Fire & Ice: Welcome to Smallville, Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Jay Garrick: The Flash, Justice Society of America, Power Girl, Superman, Shazam, Titans, Wesley Dodds: Sandman, Wonder Woman, & World's Finest: Teen Titans.

    Exactly! Alternate heroes off this list with various JLA members...the Big 7, and maybe Green Arrow and Black Canary!

    Next three scheduled are:

    #4 ~ Red Hood

    I guess Urban Legends and those one-shots for the Bat family members (Duke, Helena) weren't enough Bat people.

    I got those kickass Vixen and Superman issues. This volume was already worth it off those alone.

    I've been waiting for the Vixen issues to come out in trade, but it looks like they are waiting to collect more than just her issues in the upcoming trade, which bugs me. It bugs me that in order to get some more Vixen material in trade form, I'm going to also be buying stories about other characters I don't care anything about, like Constantine, Robin, Red Hood and Batwoman.

    Vixen - Champion of Anansi

    DC will never give Vixen her proper due. Why don't they just sell her or something?
