Comic Book Wednesday
Thursday, June 8
What have we got? Obviously 52, this weekly thing up to issue five now. So how has it done now after a month's worth? Still fresh, filling readers in on what the heck has happened to a whole universe of heroes during the missing one year. It hasn't been on the edge of your seat reading, but there's always something new happening.
JSA is just horrible. I'm just finishing out the series which ends next month, only one issue left thank god! Yeah. But it'll restart a few months later and it'll be good again, and the new "in" thing.. blah blah blah. Currently JSA is running an arc by fill in writer/artists like JLA did before it got axed. It's just bleeding itself dead so the readers who return for the re-boot will just love it!
Wonder Woman #1 was alright. I didn't know what to expect from this "The O.C." writer guy, but he does a good job getting a series started. I like the changes done to the three big WW villians brought into the issue. Pretty jam packed. Much better than how the last writer handled things.
I was talked into getting the Superman Returns Prequel #1. It didn't take much talking too, but I wasn't going to get this originally. And it didn't really do anything for me. Have you seen the first ten minutes of Superman: The Movie? Well then you've seen this issue. Save yourself the money. I'm not even going to tell you how much I spent on it. It's a good damned thing I like Superman.
Lastly, New X-Men. I like this book. I really do. I can get into this far better than Uncanny X-Men. It feels like they just try too hard with the real X-Men, so when these kids come along and they face pretty steep odds, it's just more exciting for some reason. Like the cover too. Plus.
