Ditto on the Aquaman and Mera stuff. It was very sweet stuff. And Wally's reunion with Barry really got to me, even though my only experience with Wally is the JLU cartoon and some of Morrison's Justice League work.

Sadly, shop got shorted Secret Six, so waiting on that one.

So while I don't think it's necessarily an unfair reading, this "scapegoating of Alan Moore" is not how I took this at all. Instead, it reads more to me like a condemnation of a lack of creativity, with Dr. Manhattan standing in for the editors. I've seen this elsewhere, but it is simply true that stories like…

Well, this was a resounding "meh." RIP Dermien Drarhk.

It's… insane. That said… I liked it a lot? But I'm also able to hold my appreciation for Watchmen and my distaste for Alan Moore in my head simultaneously.

Sinestro and his corps are featured in the solicit's for Venditti's new Hal Jordan/GLC series in Rebirth.

I know. I know. I know.

Ditto that Planetary moment. I remember reading that omnibus and not really getting where this was going in the first few issues. That moment alone was worth the price of the book to me.

It was ugly, especially on Twitter and the CBR forums where Bunn has always been a good sport and chimed in. That was about the time I decided to stop checking there. Even though I shared a dislike of his story, the comments were just so incredibly vitriolic.

This is an easy one, but Ozymandias's "I did it thirty-five minutes ago" has always been a moment I loved. The first time I read it as a kid, I remember being flabbergasted.

Abnett has the right take on the pair at least. His first story just wasn't anything special. As much as I like Bunn's other work, he just wasn't the right fit for Aquaman — something he has repeatedly acknowledged himself elsewhere distancing himself from the book following the backlash.

I mean, at the same time Johns is also the guy who understands the core of the characters better than most (with, perhaps, the exception of Batman). And he's the guy who really reworked the JSA and Teen Titans to prominence.

Bunn's Magneto was also very good. He seems to excel at these morally murky egotists.

This is one for me too. Great moment. Hickman excels at these slow builds to genuinely earned truly epic moments.

"It just sort of ended" is the best way to describe it. I feel like Millar wanted to say something about what makes a good Superman, but he didn't have an arc.

Yeah, I know Sinestro is heavily playing into the Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps (good lord, that's a long title) in Rebirth. I'm wary, because I just haven't liked Venditti's GL work. At least it'll look nice with semi-regular Ethan VanSciver art…

AGH! Two threads!

Survivor: Get Off My Lawn looks pretty infuriating.

I definitely thought Michelle had a case. I just thought hers was the weakest case.

Ooooooh, THAT'S why Jeff didn't hype this season!
