What does GL say after Batman says "You flew us to Metropolis in a glowing green jet?"

Does it say "blablabla Talk in a deep voice?"

It's possible they were able to adjust the content.

Yeah, there's some different dialogue there.

I read a summary for free. You should done that and then bought the eventual trade for this story once it hit the discount pile for $4. Poor syxx.

I read the summary here as well, as well as all the hate. And I enjoyed the issue, no doubt about it, but I can't justify $4 on three minutes worth of reading.

Might as well have.

Not just unfinished dialogue, but unfinished digital effects on several panels apparently. I hate to say it, but it sounds like you paid full retail price for an almost-but-not-quite-finished digital version of the finished book which saw print, one of the concessions DC made to go "day and date digital".

I am still waiting for 'The Gay 52'.

No crossovers. RIGHT... So not even after the first issue is the backdoor to end this mess already being hinted at.

What are they setting us up for, a COIE redux set in the new DCU or something to iron out stuff that fails to sell?

The reboot to end all reboots is itself a setup for another reboot. I know Didio was part of the team at Mainframe that gave us ReBoot, but this unhealthy obsession with reboots is the last straw for me.

Well apparently she's already popped up in JLA #1 and is in Animal Man and a few others.

Yeah I saw that. So much for all new stories that aren't bogged down with what happened before, only took them 0 days to break that promise :lol:

Even they had juuuuuust enough sense to leave themselves a way out of this idiotic DCnU idea.

The heroes of the backdoor: Geoff Johns, Dan Didio and Jim Lee of Earth Prime taking Grant Morrison's leftover acid tabs to write (pun intended) every wrong in an effort to return us to the glory of the Silver Age.

Ok...I must have missed it, but where is the hooded lady in JL#1 exactly?

The page where the crowd's watching Vic Stone's football game, tucked away at the far end.

Oh shit, she really IS in Animal Man. And in Voodoo, Action Comics, OMAC and even Batgirl to boot:

So she's DC's own Observer? :lol:
