I gotta say that with the stress of my job and as busy as the family has me, this has been a welcome and entertaining exercise. And I’m looking forward to everything everyone is going to come up with.
I'd like to echo this as well, and to extend a personalized 'thank you' to Exciter for reaching out through pm and inviting me back (as well as others). I had forgotten how entertaining the brainstorming is, and Lorec and I have been bouncing ideas off of each other all week. I'm very excited to start reading!
Also, I'm enjoying the out of the box picks we're seeing. Jimmy Olsen picked in the same round and book as Death? Vicki Vale in round 2? When Lorec & I were discussing draft slots and speculating who would be available, I was adamant that the main Justice Leaguers would be off the board first, followed by other A-listers. Instead, I see books with The Question and John Constantine. This is all very exciting!

Every post I make, it should be assumed by the reader that the following statement is attached: "It's all subjective. What works for me doesn't necessarily work for you, and vice versa, and that's ok. You may have a different opinion on it, but this is mine. That's the wonderful thing about being a comics fan, it's all subjective."
Aw shucks, thanks! I’m glad everyone is enjoying so far. It’s really fun for me too for the same reasons - a little creative outlet in our busy day-to-day grind!
