The 50 best covers reminded me why I used to read comics and have a pull and all that, but the 5 worst ones reminded me why I quit. Agreed. Some of those covers are gorgeous and making my comic-buying...

I'd also lost track of what JMS has been up to. This comic seems to really bolster the "JMS is a dick" stream of thinking, too. At least he's managed not to have Superman stop every five minutes...

The list of the 5 worst, if nothing else, brought to my attention the Superman going for a walk comic, which seems to really bolster the "Superman is a dick" stream of thinking. I'd also lost track of...

I just didn't like it. Maybe I'm the wrong one, but it just fell flat to me. There were a few weak issues in there, it's true. Much of the second arc, for instance. But it seems like they've righted...

The worst aspects of comics are fairly easy to avoid by the simple expedient of stopping buying anything you know to be shit, Eh, I don't know. The superhero companies have a long, long history of...

Sadly, I have that Sentry: Fallen Son comic. It is every bit as bad as it is made out to be. The Sentry was such a terrible idea to begin with, it is only fitting that he be memorialized in one of the...
