It felt like the most uneven storytelling I can remember from Snyder and I was just waiting for a GREAT Capullo page and it didn't come...too many Justice leaguers for him maybe?

Last page was cool I guess...

I will keep buying, it feels like a fun premise, just hope it isn't taken too seriously...

Ok, so it just isn't me. I won't keep buying it. Not with stuff like Mage back out, Spy Seal, Descender and Heavenly Blues.

Still, I want to read it again. I want to like it. I just don't get what the point of of it is.

McDonalds sold millions of burgers - didn't make them good.

Descender and Paper Girls - Mr. Miracle - good books - print runs so so.

You originally referenced Snyder on twitter, taking you to task. And then poof!!

The problem is the scope of the book is beyond his skill level. He isn't the writer and isn't old enough to create what seems D.C. wants to use as a springboard to expand its universe.

Really, writing good stories is key. It doesn't require a larger setting or more characters.

This is almost as rough as Secret Wars II.

Missed the Forge but just got through Casting - was acceptable - onto Metal #1

Haven't bought a variant cover on purpose in 10-15 years....but I like shiny things so I got one of those covers too!

It was alright for me too. It was very exposition heavy though and I kept thinking to myself "get to the point already" numerous times.

FOr me....there was only two reasons I purchased the Del Otto cover issue.....because I love his artwork.....in fact, I think he may be one of the best illustrators there are in modern times.

And of course...I'm a Batman fan.

:o)

I did not read the previous two books, so I'm probably jumping in on the middle of a story.

Oh well.....the cover is worth framing, IMO.

There are a bunch of super cool covers for this book. I especially like the virgin comicxposure cover with the joker.

This is another Converse or whatever that thing was last summer, Secret Wars, it is an event to expand the setting.

In some ways, I am starting to like it. Blackhawk Island introduces a SHIELD like element so non meta humans are involved.

The ridiculous part was Wonder Woman calling for attack formations. When was the last time you saw the JLA do a Danger Room type practice scenario.
