Interesting.

Yeah, gotta admit how they did Superman dirty has really scared me off of Rebirth.

Do I need to get the New 52 Batman's or is it like Supes where it's so blown up that you wouldn't recognize it anyway?

Get the New 52 Batman issues, trust me. The first 12 are amazing.

No. They seem stupid.

Especially Superman.

They just spend 4 years on new 52 only to light it up with a nuke?

F*ck DC.

Superman married with a kid is LAME.

I can't even keep track of Batman anymore.

Superman/WW ROCKED.

Why are they doing this? What was the point of the last few years then?
This is my entire feelings on reading anything by Marvel or DC.

They reboot too often, and canon gets totally confusing, even to the most die-hard readers.

It's why I buy trade paperbacks.

I can't pay for each issue and try to guess what the hell they're doing.

Plus I can sit back and get stories all at once.

I gave up on it. I even removed it from my bookmarks.

It went down within days of my posting the link here. I am hesitant to provide my current source now... :(

So Ironman is now a black chick?

Super lame and unoriginal.

Create new characters please.

I've never really read comics before but my gf wants me to branch out so I'm starting up a noir comic called "Fade Out" and a more traditional scifi space opera called "Descender" and I'll probably read the comic my gf is reading when she is done called "Paper Girls" which I know nothing about.

The Marvel and DC stuff all looks pretty intimidating. It screams 'we've run out of ideas' but I bet there is some awesome stuff out there.

Try Vertigo comics.


I like their stuff. Darker...more adult.

I might give them a try. Pretty much everything I was looking at was Image comics.

Couple there look interesting.

I'm the same as you...never really got into em' til lately. Not a big fan of the super hero shit tho.


The Walking Dead and Preacher were/are pretty great.

I haven't picked up Preacher, but if the show gets really good, I may give it a try.

TWD was getting a bit dull, but this last issue was OMG good.

I have read a few issues of Invincible, but it hasn't really grabbed me.

Early stuff or more recent? (on Invincible)

Just finished Preacher Volume 2: 4.5/5 stars. It has great character development, and a bad ass villain. Definitely improved upon the first volume. I picked up Scott Snyder's Batman: The Black Mirror from the library. I love Scott Snyder's work with Batman so I'm really excited. Will give a rating soon.

No. Is it like Y: The Last Man (my favorite series)?

Nothing like it. It's more dark, almost with a horror/sci fi vibe. There are 6 volumes of it, it's written by Joe Hill(Stephen King's son). It's pretty badass man, and it's finished if you want to sink your teeth in.

P.S. I am a huge fan of Y: The Last Man too.

I'll check it out, but I'm about to start Vaughn's Saga, so maybe after.
