    Default Martian Manhunter #2 Preview

    I really enjoyed the first issue and look forward to what is coming next.



    It’s the Man of Steel versus the Martian Manhunter as Superman demands to know what J’onn J’onnz knew about the Martians’ terrible plans for Earth.

    First issue was good. Will be picking up this one and next few, at least.

    Unless it gets completely derailed, I'm in it for the long haul. I think it's been set up so far to turn into a really great run w/ various subplots.
    Comics were definitely happier, breezier and more confident in their own strengths before Hollywood and the Internet turned the business of writing superhero stories into the production of low budget storyboards or, worse, into conformist, fruitless attempts to impress or entertain a small group of people who appear to hate comics and their creators. -- Grant Morrison, 2008

    It's on my pull list! The first issue really rocked my socks. It's got a Twilight Zone kind of feel I'm enjoying

    This... wasn't as good as I was expecting sadly.

    Seriously, can you even read a sentence here without bold words?

    I quite liked it. And not all sentences were bold, come on man lol.

    I do need to re-read it though, since I'm halfway dying from a lack of sleep.

    Mr. Biscuit's is out of control! Fantastic issue. DC is spoiling me lately with arcs that feature large scale tales, between this and the newest JL and JLA series.

    I know, right? It is an action series, but has a very spooky atmosphere that sets it apart from the other DC fighting comics.
    I looked at the writers Wikipedia page and it didn't look like he had written anything of real note before. This comic makes it seem like he has a lot of untapped potential.

    My theory is either Mr. Biscuit is a predecessor of Jonn or i have no idea who he is. Best character to come out of any solo title in a long time.
