It's definitely picking up though, i was thinking about dropping this, but from issue 7 onwards it's been pretty good.

I like this book because it means I only need to spend a couple bucks a month to see Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. Instead of getting their titles outright. (Though I jump on for big events like "Batman RIP" or "New Krypton.") And lately the book has felt like a good mix of the Trinity and the JLA. It's sort of the all purpose book I've wanted for DC. I get to see my favorites like John Stewart and Jason Rasuch and Roy Harper in a book where I don't feel like they're shoehorned. While Roy is really just there for comedy, John and Jason have had decent parts so far. And offer some interesting takes.
I will confess that I have been like Nicezia's backups off and on. This week's was definitely on.

The quality of this book is so much higher than it was during the first few issues. I am glad I stuck with it.

I had a really good time with this issue, I knew Busiek had a strong idea where he was going.

I'm glad I stuck with it, too. I like the Mirror Universe Crime Syndicate. I like the idea that they kill the competition - that explains why there may not be exact mirror versions of all the other Justice League or DCUniverse heroes...

I have been loving this book. It is great because it ISN"T just the Trinity. It is how the Trinity relates to everyone else. It has been a blast seeing all the different heroes, and the new villains like Primaat are alot of fun.

Yeah! I'm so glad this book is good now. A decent weekly read from DC with so many characters is awesome. It's a million times better than Countdown already & too early to say if it's as good as 52.
For people not reading this -- think of it as a big JLA story with the main focus on Superman, Batman & Wonder Woman, but also it involves A LOT of DC characters, & would be a great introduction to the DCU for new readers (IMO).

Damn, now I have to buy another book!

Not sure if this book is going to be as good as 52, but i know it's not as bad as countdown.
