THIS.

If quality stuff survived as long as they stayed good, 'Thor: The Mighty Avenger' and Jaime Reyes' first run as Blue Beetle would've lasted A LOT longer than they got.

...Well, IMO anyway. *isn't bitter at all*

[gabzillaz]

I'm still bitter about Jaime's first series and Steph's series.

[rebecky_mo]

Steph? Who is this 'Steph' you speak of?

An awesome spunky blonde girl in a purple hood/red vest/purple and black armor who was fun and wonderful and had so much ahead of her? Never heard of her. She doesn't exist.

...

GOD I HATE DCNU!! I'm actually glad Nu-Blue Beetle is getting canned and that hurts, damn it!

[gabzillaz]

don't mention it or the men in black will come for you

i hate it too, it ruined the bat family for me

[rebecky_mo]

Crap. Where's my Ray-Bans and tin foil hat?

The only Bat-title (hell, a rare Nu-title) I'm actually liking is the Batwing title. David's a good character, and the stories/world building have been intriguing in it. I have no idea how its doing sales-wise, but I'd assume it's on the bubble...

[gabzillaz]

David is the one that will get cancelled first, his sales are not good :(

He's the only bat person I follow other than Kate.

[insanenoodlyguy]

Everybody hates DCNU.

Marvel is doing bad on somethings.

DCNU is bad for ALMOST EVERYTHING

Except Animalman and Swampthing and some of the Latnernstuff. Coincidentally, all of these ignored the fucking reboot! Gee, i wonder if that has anything to do with it!

[rebecky_mo]

Marvel redeemed itself in my eyes with the new Hawkeye series, but I'm not expecting it to last very long since there's no tit and ass shots, with contorting woman-spines.

...Screw it. I'm gonna stick with my IDW!Ninja Turtles and Sonic the Hedgehog comics; THEY haven't been disappointing me!

Yeah, everyone knows it's not a real Marvel series until they are introduced. /sarcasm

[truxillogical]

Oof. I felt the same way about JLI. Which sucked. I mean, they lead me on for a year by saying, "Hey, we're getting the band back together!" after the Brightest Day wrap-up. And then what do we get? This...book. About, I dunno, some heroes, their names are kind of familiar, but some of them aren't. Anyway, they're gonna fight bad guys now.

What's that? Jokes? What are you talking about? Booster Gold is a Very Serious Character. See? Even Batman respects him. Heart? Look, there's some generic bad guys to fight, we don't have time to build a wacky family.

Geeze, it's not like there aren't half a dozen writers who could've put together a heartfelt, fun team book. But. No.

[rebecky_mo]

I'm still hanging onto JLI...for now. But really, the minute they killed off Gavril, I was facepalming. I LIKED him; he was one of the fun ones in Generation Lost, and would've done a HELL of a lot to improve JLI-Nu.

But yeah, Beetle's literally a complete 180 from the first series. I was hopeful when his friends came to New York that things might get better, but then he became part of the JLI Special and got beamed into space...and now he's getting canned in a few months.

People don't want heart in their comic books unless they're being ripped out of someone's chest and eaten! *sigh*

I laugh because if I don't I'll just cry over the truth of this. I'm trying not to let it taint reading old books with the real JLI characters (especially Booster and good ole' Ted) but its really difficult.

[truxillogical]

Well that's the silver lining to the whole DCnU thing--I'm not finding that it taints rereading old books because at the end of the day, this is a completely different universe, with completely different characters. So it does sting because I guess technically that means all the old characters are dead, or maybe it's just that their stories are ended, continuing only in the halls of fandom and headcanon.

Besides, and I know I've been on this rant before, but without Ted Kord, there is no Booster Gold: Actual Hero. Jurgens may have created a fairly original (and oh-so-purely 80's) character back in the day, but it was his time with Ted that breathed life and likeability into the guy. And it was his coping with Ted's death that made an actual hero out of him. Even Michelle's death didn't get him to settle down and take some humility. But Ted's death sobered him into acting a hero, and he was willing to give up everything he ever dreamed of having just for the chance of bringing Ted back (which, incidentally, was the reason Batman respected him as a hero in the first place).

I'm still holding out hope that when someone else takes over the reigns, it'll either be Wally West or Booster Gold who Sets Everything Right.

[b_dangerous]

Same. I miss me some GOOD Jaime Reyes. :( <3

[gabzillaz]

THAT RUN IS SO GOOD

SO GOOD

WE COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL

[(Anonymous)]

ROLLING IN THE DEEEEEP

[b_dangerous]

SO GOOD. I REREAD IT ALL THE TIME AND CRY BECAUSE THE REBOOT MADE HIM INTO SUCH A DINK. ; n ;

JAIME MUH BB.

[(Anonymous)]

So I keep hearing good things about Jaime Reyes but haven't gotten 'round to reading the comics yet. On a side note, he's in TV Young Justice season 2 (I've been clinging to that series like a lifeline since the reboot).

[b_dangerous]

Read the pre-reboot series. Avoid Tony Bedard's boring New 52 run.

[truxillogical]

Hang on, I've got some sobbing to do over Thor: The Mighty Avenger.


Though I guess it means Samnee's been free to rock socks in a bunch of other great titles. But darn it, I would've at least liked to have had a resolution to the overarcing plot!

[rebecky_mo]

The tears have been shed, now I'm just mad. GOD, that pissed me off. We were just getting somewhere really awesome! The Free Comic Book Day issue made me feel a little better with him getting to meet Cap...and then I realized it would be the first and last time they met. DAMN IT.

I'm glad Samnee's doing well, at least. He's got talent and shouldn't be wasted.

[iggy]

...and almost anything starring a woman.

[rebecky_mo]

That too. Which makes me figure Swords of Sorcery: featuring Amythest isn't going to last very long; a shame, since it's got me intrigued thus far.

[iggy]

...Honestly lady comics are just about the only thing I buy. I can't afford to buy everything I want to read, so I make sure to pick up the ones that have a higher chance of getting canned. :\

[(Anonymous)]

it's logical and sad o.o
