given time…

I got issue 12 The Movement which was about as okay as the review here says.
Also, #5 of 6 of the Adventure Time Flipside mini. I haven't liked the non-North AT work, so I don't know why I'm punishing myself with the cover price on these books. That said, the next mini is being done by the cartoon's head writer, so

It was just clumsy.

if its brown, flush it down

I think the show did an okay job w/ Green Arrow's translation from the comic, and he really fit the roll well. Taking Question to that end though, would have made the character really … useless as a team member: he loses almost every fight in the O'Neal run. It is basically a book about zen (as noted by others here)

I wound up w/ all smaller press books this week:
the Duffman oneshot from Bongo had a pretty good riff on the GLC, really a decent step above most parody.
Also the Fiona & Cake 'Annual' which had great art.
and the 2nd part of the current MLP: FIM story, which oddly also dealt with an alternate universe story—more in the

I don't know if anyone else has mentioned it since I last read the thread here, but it was very interesting that Tina did not let her honest-to-a-fault self get outed as the inside man. She kept up her game face and really rode roughshod over Louise in a way I wouldn't have thought she was capable. Devious even.
Was

even at 8 bucks that's cheap, offset against the lower cost of the rest of the series.

I have all but 10 issues of the original Suicide Squad, all bought for $1 or less (mostly 25-50 cents) bought from one LCS. It takes a little hunting, but that's half the fun for me.

possibly my fav' all time 'easter egg' are the purple uniforms the staff where, which are an homage to Challengers of the Unknown.

'twas nice to see her again, and doing more than just delivering a single joke. I miss her friends tho. Why don't they all stop by for a burger?

"It always makes me sad that Ralph Dibny never got an entire episode
dedicated to him and his wife Sue. Piven’s voice work for Ralph is spot
on, and it would have been nice to have one of DC’s best couples
immortalized in shiny cartoon form when their comic book versions were
dragged through the mud."

different, but both awesome.
What I love about Blake is his nihilism, w/ Grant it is how unique he is as the only truly old man in the crime fighting world—since Sandman died.

totally.
Also, I have, and have read the paperback O'Niel wrote telling the Question's origin and basically the first overall story from his comic run with a different spin and some compression on it.
Aside from a handful of gaping in-story continuity gaffs it is a really great read. Just needed an editor.
Even manages

I am also happy to see these return, best way to enjoy the best stories in heroic fiction.

for me, it would probably be "I'd love an omelette right about now".

A rare week when I bought no comics. This hasn't happened in well over a year for me. I thought of grabbing that Transformers #100 special from last week, but passed.
I had a handful of things to get read anyway.
The fill in for Superior Foes wasn't as bad as I expected it to be, but it sure seems like Marvel are

I didn't take his not saying sorry as a mean thing, it was pretty well implied that he was really confused by the whole thing—old man and technology.

that'd actually be pretty brilliant, get a few people with a music background and photographic memory to line up for listen-throughs and go to work reconstructing it.
That would be at least as interesting to listen to as the actual lp.
