That's great. :)

I think I would start with "I'm a billionaire and have this physique." Then I'd move on to "You know, this cape makes an excellent bedspread. Would you like to see a demonstration?" Then perhaps segue to "You know, I spearheaded the recent 'Anti-crime' legislation while defeating a large bat on 'New Island'." I can only assume she would be so infatuated that her swimsuit would simply melt off.

Reading the above comments was more entertaining than the actual issue.

i liked this issue and smiths writing but he does have a habit of writing out of character like with aquaman, seemed liked he was writing plasticman not aquaman, and the joker in cacophony was a bit um off. its a bit jarring at 1st

@peterporker- I don't usually notice it that much, but I did in this issue for sure. It was more like a fan-fic than a real comic, the characters were all so ... out of character. Add in the weak art & you have one pretty crappy comic book.

i didnt have a problem with the art until this issue. i mean look at robin for gods sake each panel hes drawn differently but in all he looks like a 40 yr old meth addict

Wow, still no reviews of this yet. I don't even feel like reading it again to review it.
Posted by robbydzwonar on 11/07/09 at 01:01 AM
I dunno, this is kind of a guilty pleasure for me, all the criticism above is totally valid...and yet, I like it!
Posted by Urthona on 11/08/09 at 08:16 AM
Aquaman was like this beach bum. I loved it.

Whatever happend to KevinSmithFan?

I can't help but laugh at the concept of this cover. It's not bad art by any means, it just looks like Batman is on the beach, staring at a girl in a bikini, trying to summon the courage to talk to her.
