I can tell reading your reviews... that I won't :(
You don't have to like me
You don't have to respect me
But you will LISTEN to me.

And hating superheroes is kind of a douchey college thing to do.

For what it's worth, I enjoyed this comic.

I'll have a full review up sometime tomorrow or Friday, but if you liked Jurgen's run on Booster Gold, you'll like this as well.

Let's all make a pinky promise not to pick any of the other 100 Bruce Wayne tie-ins coming down the pike.

Time Masters: Vanishing Point #1

After two weeks of pretty horrible comics to read, I was excited about this; especially with the idea that Dan Jurgens is stearing this little ship. Was I happy witht he outcome? Nope... and... kind of. This didn't start out as strong as it probably should have, but I'm going to blame that on Grant Morrison. After all this is really his pet project of brilliance which is obviously holding Dan back. Curse you Morrison!!!

But Dan is still able to pull out a weak start with terrific writing, and a new mystery. Why are Despero and Degaton involved as well as Supernova? The art was great and just the style that I love. Bright, colorful and full of men in tights.

Now I know that some of you are going to say: Who cares about this little side story that involves characters that eventually will probably have nothing to do with the lame main story? Hey, don't blame Dan... this is Grant's fault.

Story: 5
Art: 9
My Score: 7

Am I alone in seeing this book not as a RoBW spin-off, but as a continuation of Jurgens' Booster Gold run?
