Yeah, that's it, you support the industry! You go, attack a book before it's even been published!

Isn't that what you just did? In this very thread?

Indeed!
And we aren't the only ones who did!

Welcome to the thread, Bass!

Was this meant as a note of support?

Good to see that after cockteasing us with her appearance in the Secret Seven mini during Flashpoint, they finally grab the loli bull by the balls and give us Amethyst. :smt007

And Didio doing PS is just the fluffy bunny icing on the Metamucil cake. Suck it haterz. :smt005

I wasn't attacking any book. What I said was, and you can go back and read it, is that I didn't recognise any of the writers, on, supposedly, high profile books. I didn't criticise the books. I regularly criticize DC (and Marvel), for putting total nobodies on books, but I didn't criticize the book.

In the case of the book DiDio is writing, I find it ludicrous to attack a book that hasn't see the light of day, based on this notion that DiDio is automatically a bad writer. I quite enjoyed Omac.

Next time, read my posts before having a go at me. Pricks.

Where the shelves are just heaving with sword and sorcery fantasy fiction by Christie Marx.

James Tynion IV is writing the backups in Batman with Scott Snyder.
Christy Marx was explained earlier in the thread.
Justin Jordan writes The Strange Talent of Luther Strode.

I don't read Batman (And given that i won't read it until there's a creative change, and now Snyder is getting his mates jobs on the d-list books, means I probably won't be for a while)

I've never heard of Strange Talent of Luther Strode. But this attitude of hiring an indy writer off the back off a hugely hyped, but low selling indy book and giving him a z-list book sure worked out well for Nathan Edmonson, so I give team seven eight issues, before he's replaced by Rob Liefeld.
