So like, anybody pick up Swamp Thing yesterday? It's some pretty good s**t.

Batwing #6 - I kind of like it and kind of like everything about the book, but not enough to continue it past this opening arc. So, yeah. One or two more issues then it's gone.

the Tweleve #9

anybody recall what happen in 8? I can't recall if I got it or not :/

Defenders #3
xxxxxx I have really been enjoying this series. It's fun, has a nice pace, and a good combination of action and humor. It has the sort of style and feel of older Marvel comics, which I like. I've always been a fan of the Defenders and this new team has a very good line-up. Doc Strange, Namor, Silver Surfer, Iron Fist, and Red She-Hulk. Never knew Red She-Hulk before, but this series has really gotten me into her. This issue was mostly just a wrap up to the starting story arc, but it was still pretty good and I'm eager to continue this run. I think my favorite part is just the interactions between our five team-members. They work really well together. Loving this series.

Red Lantern #5
xxxxxx - I really don't know about this series. I originally picked it up because I like one of the Lanterns, Bleez (the woman with the skeleton wings), but it's just not held my attention. It's story is very slow. I mean, snail-walking, soul-crushingly slow. It's been 5 issues and we are still just wandering around the Red Lantern planet fighting over who should be the leader. I’ll probably end up dropping this. It’s really jus a lot of violence, over-reactions, in-fighting, and, to my surprise, whining. If they aren’t whining about being angry, they’re whining about being intelligent, or how they died, or about how they aren’t doing anything. Argh. Yeah, if this series doesn’t pick up soon, I’ll drop it. It has an interesting premise, with the Red Lanterns re-thinking why their Corp exists and if what they’re doing is actually a mission of justice or revenge. That’s pretty cool. But it’s potential is bogged down in a lot of wasted time and a slow plot.

Detective Comics #6- I might be dropping this one to save some money, the story isn't keeping me that interested...

Static Shock #6: I am enjoying this story but from 1-6 I have been kind of confused. I think they could have done better with this book, maybe start something that didn't seem like it was continuing with a previous story that I haven't read.

Sad news for Static readers. It's getting canceled soon, along with Mister Terrific, Men of War, OMAC, Hawk & Dove, and Blackhawks (which I read and am sad about.) Source] It's getting replaced with some really awesome stuff, like Earth-2 and World's Finest, but it's not cool that they are going to cancel these runs so soon after they began. Kinda seems like a waste.

On a happier note, I've been meaning to look in to WildStar. How is that? Was it good?

Called it! Knew Mr. Terrific was gonna to get canned and I'm kind of glad I didn't get to attached to it. Can't say no one was buying it because I did buy the first four issues. Kind of a shame since they may use it as an excuse why we don't push out too many non-white titles. Well I didn't see Fury of Firestorm listed so that's good I guess.

[GLJordan]

so how long do you think the new titles will last? and can we get Zinda Blake back now?

Probably only Batman INC out of the new-new titles though maybe JSA might do well. I also see other old-new titles getting dropped down the road. Oh I forgot but I kind of agree with this posting:

Who was it here who pointed out how the inevitable cancellation of Mr. Terrific and Static Shock for being bad books will be used to argue that people should stop trying black leads in comics, because that line is already popping up on CBR

Though not just Black leads any non-white leads. I guess I'll never see Cassie suit up again. classified_fu

I would like for her to have her own series as some sort of new hero. Now that's probably a pipe dream since yeah DC doesn't care about non-whites.
