Syxxpakk is my new favorite poster.

I loved Final Crisis. It was overblown and ridiculous, but a hell of a lot of fun. I've also been re-reading and enjoying many of the Bendis-helmed Marvel events. They were incredibly frustrating as monthlies, but read very well in collected editions.

I have yet to read a Bendis-event I didn't enjoy. I can easily see where, as monthlies, people would hate them. But in collected editions? He knows how to hit the right notes.

As a long time DC fan, I'm well aware that their continuity reboots often enough so I experienced to acclimate quickly enough.

And with New 52, I have. Do I miss some of the old stuff, yes I do, but with the exception of some questionable creator choices, things are pretty good.

All Star Western, Legion, Batman, Swamp Thing, Wonder Woman, Earth 2, Aquaman, I... Vampire, World's Finest, Green Lantern, Green Lantern Corps, Demon Knights, Dial H & OMAC were/are all great.

I like a handful of books but I personally think DC is at its lowest point for as long as I've been reading comics (since around 1986-87).

Action Comics
Batman
Batman Incorporated
Green Lantern
Aquaman

Animal Man

I like some of the books. I'm not interested in some of the other books. In other words, it's no different than any other god damn comic book company, reboot or no.

It's different than Bluewater, nobody like their comics!

I didn't care about DC before all that much except for the Bat books. But I had stopped caring when Cassie Cain was being phased out. And lost a lot of interest because of Morrisons stuff.

I've been jumping in and out of the Bat books since the relaunch, but not digging any of them. It pains me!

I do read and love 2 DC titles. Worlds Finest and Earth 2.

Final crisis, the series where they don't show darkseid take over, and superman saves the day by whistling? That final crisis?

There are things I like about the New 52 and things I don't. I probably read more DC books now than I did before the new 52 so I guess thats saying something.

But where else could you get a comic book bio of One Direction without them. :-D

You like the new 52? :shock:

Me too.

I think I might just be down to Wonder Woman now, Rotworld killed off my enjoyment of Aminal Man and Swamp Thing and Batman's Year Zero doesn't sound too thrilling. Marvel Now is still new enough that the quality and artistic switch-ups haven't kicked in yet so I'm fine with shedding most of my DC pulls.
