Weekly comic thoughts
Jan. 22nd, 2014 11:29 amBatman #27 was excellent as always. Really, I don't have much to say except I'm loving the art, loving the character development, and hating the cliffhangers.
Batwoman #27 was...ehh. Aside from some awesome spreads by Francis Manapul, the issue felt bland, and it felt as though nothing much happened.
Apparently a wave of cancellations was announced for April. The fact that Nightwing is being canceled makes me nervous and a bit sad; I may not have been a fan of the New 52 Nightwing series, but he's such an iconic character, and if Dick Grayson stops being Nightwing because of Forever Evil, what's going to happen to him...?
The other series being canceled that I noted was Teen Titans. I dunno what to think about that. I genuinely liked the series at the start, but it just became more and more bleh as time went on, and now I just want a reboot of it. So much potential had gone to waste, especially with Solstice, Bunker, and Skitter. Kid Flash's new origin story sucked. And so on. Sigh.
So, basically, after April, my comics reading list will be: Earth 2, Batman, Detective Comics, Aquaman, Ms. Marvel, Batman Eternal*, The Flash*, Justice League 3000*, Batwoman*, TMNT*.
(* Depending on how the writing goes.)
