From: KimPilgrim | #337
I do take issue with people thinking this is suddenly a new thing and pretending the old Starfire was the same as cartoon Starfire


this is a reboot designed to bring in new readers. this is DC's opportunity to change crappy things about the past and try to increase the amount of female readers buying DC books. Red Hood did neither of these things.

"wait for it to unfold" is a terrible defence for a demeaning, sexist first issue when the only way to rectify the damage done is to completely change the way the characters were portrayed originally. this can more effectively, and less controversially, be done without writing that first issue.

anyway, good comics.

chew 21 is out today, and if chew isn't the best ongoing out there, it's certainly top 3. now that image has moved to same day digital (your move, marvel), they're offering a number of first issues on comixology for free, while back catalogue books go for $2 (as well as the previously mentioned $1 sale for Morning Glories, with a free first issue). after a quick skim, here are some great comics you can read the first issue of free:

Chew: https://comics.comixology.com/#/series/2948
Butcher Baker: https://comics.comixology.com/#/series/5701
Echoes: https://comics.comixology.com/#/series/5226 [Written by Fialkov, writer behind I, Vampire]
Elephantmen: https://comics.comixology.com/#/series/654
L'il Depressed Boy: https://comics.comixology.com/#/series/5574
Walking Dead: https://comics.comixology.com/#/series/785

I'm sure there's plenty more but six comics is enough for now.

Here's food for thought, I've heard several podcasts and read several things where they say Catwoman and Batman have sex on a roof. I saw a friend recently and he heard they had sex on a roof.

They had sex in a penthouse apartment, there's even a box that says where it takes place. Are people just saying they had sex on a rooftop because it sounds naughtier? Mass hypnosis?

JLI #2
Red Lanterns #2
Stormwatch #2

Xombi #1-6 (Finally got them, will read after I'm done with the rest)

My LCS was sold out of Penguin: Pain and Prejudice, so I asked them to order it for me and put it on my pull list.

It's a retelling of the characters origins buy fresh creative teams.

Pretty pointless, except to show of new talent. I think they're going to be Disney licensed comics.

Uuuuuugh Planet Comics was out of Animal Man, so I got Penguin instead, in addition to Stormwatch. I think I just might make a pull list for the...five or six comics I buy. I'm just going to get it digitally and buy the comic next week. I can't wait seven days for Animal Man!

Penguin was pretty good! Stormwatch was....eh, it was okay. It's moving too slow, though, with a bit too much exposition. I wanted moon-busting action by issue #2, dammit!

Got Severed #2 and #3, though. Well, my friend's gf did. Close enough.

Spoilers

Boring stuff happens
Batman goes to Arkham Asylum
Boring stuff happens
Joker doesn't make an appearance at all
Batman discovers some dead bodies in a building
New canon fodder shows up with stitched faces as well as a Harley Quinn wannabe
Dollmaster shows up being all like oh man Batman what a fantastic specimen
Then throws Gordon's body down, face all stitched up


To sum up, stupid and boring.

Ha, I could ramble on any topic with little provocation, but would you really be embarrassed to buy a comic because it's not well received? Or because you don't like the comic personally? And if so, since you're you and know your own taste, even if you were buying a comic you didn't like where does the embarrasment come in? =P

Personally, I enjoy a range of stuff, some acclaimed, some a bit more on the mindless but enjoyable side, I'd never be embarrassed to buy anything. Though, in this case, I'm a genuine fan of that Detective #1, but that's beside the point.

Speaking of which, tomorrow I'll be reading me some comics yessir!
