Quote of the Day

I've actually taken a stand in that I will never buy another DC comic with the word Crisis in it. I'm a huge DC fan so thats saying something. I'm just sick and tired of their shit.

I heard something about them killing Martian Manhunter...that bothers me. I don't know if its true or not but its what I heard. Meh.

I find it hard to really read them anymore.

Rarely if ever does the cover price justify the contents, especially when some books take about 2-3 minutes to read at most.

DC really lost something over the last few years.

Infinite Crisis was a good minor little reboot and 52/One Year Later worked well and then it all tanked after that.

Some books literally make absolutely no sense within the framework of the DCU and now, we see that the godsawful year long Countdown book was more or less thrown together and had absolutely NOTHING to do with Final Crisis at all. Morrison has recently talked about how the reason Final Crisis #1's New Gods bits make no sense because he'd asked DC to put a moratorium on the New Gods and they did EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE!

I'm looking forward to the Legion of Three Worlds story just to see George Perez draw pretty much every single character and version of each character in the Legion but it is hard to even pick anything up.

Though surprisingly, Action Comics has been really good as of late.

I mostly read the Bat stuff. I like all his supporting characters like Nightwing and Robin etc. My favorite book for a long time has been Catwoman. I found out the other day they're canceling her monthly title.

DC seems so random with decisions they make. Killing Blue Beetle, the Question, now Jonn.

I find I'm getting less and less excited about "new comic day" these days. I even missed it altogether this week. I will give Action a look though when I go back next.

I don't know why but ever since the reintroduction of the "real" Legion of Superheroes in Action a few months back I just kept following it.

There's a Toyman story from 1 or 2 months ago that is just fantastic.

And I'm finding the new Brainiac story is intriguing.

Problem is... I have absolutely no idea what is and what is not canon any more for Superman.

I've never been a fan of Superman at all really.

James Robinson is also starting on the main title and the first few pages with Krypto in space were great.

I'm extremely happy Krypto is around, as silly as it may seem.

This is going to sound funny but with all the revamps they go through in the comics I've adopted "The Animated Series" as cannon. All the Bruce Timm stuff from Batman to JLU.

For the most part they distilled the essence of the characters into something easy to follow. Sometimes they improved them with a new origin like Brainiac or Mr. Freeze. Others they dropped the ball like not including Hal Jordon. (but I am a big fan of John Stewart. I just never liked Kyle Rayner)

I collect Superman stuff(toys etc) but I never really followed his comic. My toy collection is actually centered around Batman and Superman.

I picked up the first story arc of Superman Confidential which I thought was good. I get Superman/Batman every so often but not religiously.

Canon is whatever Grant Morrison says it is.

Or at least it will be by the time he's done. I don't know. Wake me up when Scott Free shows up again. Then again, they did reintroduce Sonny Sumo, so things can't be all bad.
