It always kind of tickles me when they bring back an obscure character just to kill them off. You can just let 'em sit, guys, its ok! The storyline in Superman/Batman that was a salute to Silver Age comics ("A glorious age of comics where Lois Lane can have her head changed to the head of a fly, and Bats and Supes can challenge each other to an amnesia contest JUST BECAUSE THEY FEEL LIKE IT" like the writer said) was a fun use of silly old characters.

But then I've never agreed with the need to 'clean up continuity' that results in Crisis and New 52 and whatever BS they have next. L'il Gotham is maybe my favorite book ever because it's like "*handwave* aaaaand stuff happens! shhhh just read"

To be fair, Bloodlines was one of the worst things they ever wrote. About the only character that mattered was Tommy Monaghan and that's because he was a Garth Ennis creation.

(never been so happy to see Noonan's bar pop up in Batman and Robin #27, though it DOES mean the old gang is still dead/not coming back...)

zat the current Batman and Robin run? How is it? I'm all over batfam comics although Damian is my least favorite Robin, but I haven't been able to stomach what I've read of the new 52. I just want the Didio school of "Heroes shouldn't have happy personal lives" to gdiaf. If you want that philosophy maybe for a couple of heroes, but all of them? Even Superman can't be married to Lois? gdi that's why I started on DC rather than MArvel, cause the heroes actually had occasionally non-sucky lives.

...although I HAVE heard that the current 'Future's End' event they've got going is pretty interesting!

Stick with the New 52, I promise. It was off to a very rough and shaky start, and despite DC's PR problems, Geoff Johns has actually done a very good job of holding it all together, and sticking with it really, really pays off with last year's event Forever Evil. You only ever really need to outright avoid anything by Scott Lobdell (except for the tail end of his Superman run, which is part of the very awesome Doomed event otherwise I wouldn't read it) and Ann Nocenti (though she had a short run on Green Arrow that wasn't SO bad.)

If there's one lasting victory of the New 52, it's that it took All Star Western 3 years to get canceled. That's not a bad run for something that isn't Batman, Superman or Justice League!

I'm really glad to have two specific names to avoid, THANK YOU. I tend to follow characters rather than writers/artists, so unless it's Liefield and I can tell to flee for the hills I often get blindsided when a title starts to suddenly suck.

(...honestly I can't be unbiased about new 52 because of the bs way they changed the backstory of my #1 favorite character, Timothy Drake. What I loved about him was that he was a normal dude [if very smart and kinda obsessive] from a normalish family, who became Robin not to get vengence for a tragedy but because Batman needed a Robin and it's a dirty job but somebody's got to do it by golly. He got through on giant brains and sheer hard work to make up for his lack of natural physical talent. Now he's an...Olympic hopeful gymnast? And he was never Robin, just Red Robin? I just can't remain objective. Sigh.)
