    Whoh! The complete forum has been rebooted. Well, it's going to be great to see how the new members of CBR will vote and say their opinions on this book by this writer. Post your opinions guys & gals if you have any.

    To put it mildly, I don't care for this run.

    Dr. Poison thanks for your opinion. Did you prefer Greg Rucka or Gail Simone? Perhaps the original reboot with George Perez?

    I accidentally gave it 5-stars.

    I forgot, I'm holding back giving it that high a rating until the entire story is finished. I've really become convinced that we won't be able to truly judge the run until the entire story is told.

    He's on track to earn that 5-star rating, but I do have some questions I'd like answered and some issues I'd like to see brought to a satisfactory conclusion before I give it THAT high a score.

    So, for now? 4-Stars, with a very strong chance of going to 5.
    Though much is taken, much abides; and though
    We are not now that strength which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    As far as I can tell, with the possible exception of Aquaman, no character and no lore has been improved by the reboot. They certainly haven't been made any friendlier to new readers, and Azzarello's WW is one of the least friendly of them all; if you didn't start with #1 I doubt a single random issue would be intelligible. Forgetting that every issue is potentially someone's first is an editorial problem, though. Azzarello's oblique, frustrating and slow writing style and his contempt for the lore and her actual villains shove this run to the bottom of the barrel.

    You're welcome.

    While Perez and Simone's run weren't perfect, I enjoyed the majority of them. Rucka's was mediocre for me at best - not great, not terrible, just kind of middle of the road.

    It's better than the average DC book, but Milligan's Justice League Dark and Swierczynski's BoP were the best.

    I like it, and it is one of the better books from the New 52. I miss the Amazonians though
