It's a fucking mess. It's more or less a repeat of the early 90s, only instead of necks like tree stumps, we've got stuff like Joker cutting off his own face and Billy Batson, the nicest superhero ever, being a bratty little shit. There's more blood, more tits, what they did to Starfire was a crime (and oh god Selina,) Amanda Waller went from rough-around-the-edges fat black lady to rough-around-the-edges thin black lady, the list goes on.

Honestly I think the only thing worth reading is Animal Man and possibly a few of the Batman comics. Maybe Earth-2, I don't know, I haven't read that one yet -- it's an AU where the "Big Three" get killed off and other superheroes, including a de-aged, now-gay Alan Scott take over.

Wow, this is making me glad I decided not to bother with the reboot. I already knew about the Starfire fiasco, but they messed with Amanda Waller and Captain Marvel too? That's going too fucking far.

I know right? The least they could do is bring back Garth Ennis' Hitman, which was flat out the funniest thing I've read all year. It was vicious, gory (surprisingly so for DC,) hilarious, dramatic, but also very warm and human. I'd go so far to say it's Ennis' best work. Some of his other stuff, like Crossed, is grim and honestly not the sort of thing I'd recommend. Hitman I'd recommend to anyone.

I just don't understand the whole Joker cutting of his face thing. Why? Yes, he's crazy, but it seems so out of character. From the pages of him I've seen, he doesn't really seem... funny. Just a psychopath. It feels like they're going for the gross-out, edgy angle.

They totally are, it's really kind of sad. You should see Scarecrow, too.

I'm hoping this is all a phase and they eventually give up on this nonsense in about five years.

They also completely ruined the Phantom Stranger. He's not only my favorite DC character, he's my favorite fictional character of all time. So I'm really goddamn bitter about what they've done to him.

And the Questions. Both of them, Renee AND Vic Sage.
