Cynical: One of the reasons The Batman Adventures in all it's incarnations was so enjoyable through the '90's. I may even enjoy this new Batman: The Brave and the Bold comic. I enjoy the done-in-one stories; especially over in the Marvel Adventures Fantastic Four. I've picked up a couple of the MA: The Avengers digests and they are a hoot. Right now, Green Lantern and Ultimate Spider-Man are c...

Good advice I hope to steal from you when my wife and I complete our adoption with Catholic Charities. Spot on, every one!

Amen, brother! I have a whole love-hate relationship with Previews. To me it's like the monthly Sears'-Penney's Wish Book, y'know with all the G. I. Joes. Megos and Star Wars stuff. It's cool to look through that way to anticipate what's coming; but, I hate knowing too much about what's under the cover. I finally stopped buying it. Shame that that's kinda the only way ...

The shame is that Superman, Batman and most of the other iconic, flagship DC characters are so far beyond help it's ridiculous. I believe that Bendis' run on Ultimate Spider-Man is unique. Maybe what would work for Superman or Batman is one writer or artist for a twelve issue arc. No crossovers. No mutltiple tie-ins. Something like what Paul Dini seems to be doing almost un...

Conor - I believe the Strazewski-Parobeck Justice Society was only 10 issues. If you've found another 8 somewhere - let me know!! I know there was an eight-issue mini-series before the series launched... That run rocked. The second run with Robinson and Jack Knight as Starman was pretty good. I bailed shortly after Jack did. I'm probably going to catch up myself with the trades. I'm not a...

I'm the same way. But, when I started reading comics (about a million years ago), they were a quarter. The first price hike was to thirty-five cents - so I bought fewer. Then fewer and fewer at fifty and sixty cents. I've been juggling what I like to read versus what I can afford to read ever since. There was a time when I did the same thing - I only picked up one or two books. Now...

Awesome! I too aspire to print. I've read a number of Stephen King's novels for the amount of detail that he goes to. Michael Crichton for the same reason. Backwards from the films that were adapted from them, Jeffrey Deaver, Clive Cussler and James Patterson. As you might expect, the books are much, much better. I try to grab a newspaper regularly and a newsmagazine when I can...

Sorry, but after reading about a lot of what's going on in the main Marvel Universe, I'm going to stay over here in the Ultimate Marvel Universe, with Ultimate Spider-Man; and over here in the Marvel Adventures Universe with the Fantastic Four. I'll turn the lights out when I go if the price jumps like it's supposed to.

Kingdom Come and New Frontier brought a whole new dimension to Wonder Woman's personality. I like the angle you take on Carrie Kelley. Really the true hero of Miller's The Dark Knight. I have to get caught up on Astonishing X-Mmen. I thought how Kitty took on the Hellfire Club, while just about everybody else had been taken out by mind-control, was pretty cool.   Kind of a...

Can't wait for this one!
