Few places I checked out, people seem to dig the issue and like Bunker.

I'm not talking about his character, although I haven't liked what I've seen so far, but the awful writing and terrible art.

So many questions...

1) Why does the new kid remind me of a chicken? Maybe it's the fauxhawk...

2) Why is Robin disguised as an old man on the back of a train?

3) Why is Robin starting fights and letting his opponent see his unmasked face?

4) How did the new dude get in costume that fast?

Don't mind the art but the writing...? Not feeling it.

The worst part of this week's books for me was finding out on the back page that this trash-heap and Superboy will soon be crossing over with the surprisingly-excellent Legion Lost. Ugh...just when I think i'm in, they pull me back out.

Finally actually read this and dear christ its bad. This is some of the worst writing I've ever seen. I haven't see writing this bad since "The Draco."

You know what seems to be a common theme with most of these new titles? Slow-ass plotting and padded out pages.

'Bunker' may be one of the worst hero names I've ever seen - and I remember the 90s!

Whose idea was it to deage and reboot this guy?

Bunker didn't bother me as a gay character, but good lord, I was so worried about how offensive he'd be to the gays, I forgot to be afraid of just how offensive he could be to the Hispanics. And somewhere between SANTA MARIA! and CARAMBA!... HISTORY WAS MADE!

He's a double stereotype.

Ah, back to good old X-Men style writing, where everyone interjects their English with random trademark phrases.
