Hm, Relic sort of reminds me of an Engineer from Prometheus. I'm excited to see him in action.

Ohh, yeah! Did you like that movie?

Pretty dreadful costume though.

So I just caught up on Animal Man. It is an extremely strange series, but I found myself enjoying the hell out of it. It has a very interesting/obscure plot, mixed with superb dialogue and artwork. 23 issues have been released so far(counting the #0 issue and Annual) and I enjoyed every single one of them immensely. It's like nothing else I've ever read-- certainly not your typical 'cookie-cutter' book.

Has anyone else been reading this? I'd like to hear some other opinions...

Animal Man has been a roller coaster like most runs, IMO. It started out as my favorite title, then once Rot World hit (and buildup prior to that), it went downhill. Rot World wasn't bad per say, just a little too long for my taste. Once Rot World ended, Animal Man became one of my favorite titles again. Top 5 or so. Right behind Green Arrow. ✅

The last 2-3 issues has been solid.

Rot World was a little lengthy, but I still thought it was very well done. We saw the full extent of Arcane's vision of earth made manifest.

Did you read the Swamp Thing issues too? How did you like them?

BTW, current ST is waaay better than Snyder's, so I recommend you check them out.

I read the Rot World tie-in issues. They were equally as intriguing.

Don't ignore my last part. I'd like your opinion on those. 😛

Charles Soule is doing an amazing job so far, IMO.

The few issues I've read have been pretty good.

Speaking of ST... Preview for 22.

Pandora looks pretty good.

JL 21 was good, even if it lacked the entire team.

Aquaman 21 was also good; nice to see him being the main character in his own book again.

Huh, so Diggle's Hybrid arc wasn't set in the dead-present day, but several months before. Gives him a pass on the Lois stuff, so.

Unchained was... Okay. Great art by Jim Lee though.

I thought Unchained was awesome. I have faith that Scott Snyder has a great story to tell, he rarely disappoints and from interviews it seems he's been planning and wanting to tell the story for a really long time, and so far I'm loving the concept of the story,

Spoiler:
that there's this other "Superman" who was basically the atomic bomb, a nice contrast to Superman and his origins as this icon that was created in opposition to the bomb

What did people think of Batman/Superman?

The dialogue was terrible and Lee's artwork was a little... Much.

I agree.

I liked the art but the dialogue/narration was silly.

"If he sneezes I'm dead"

Seriously?

Batman getting shields and everything. Pak doing it again.

People don't like Lee?

He's a damn god with that pen. His Dark Tower art-work was just.....yeah... possibly the most beautiful comic-book I've read.

It suits Batman, but Superman just looks weird as shit with his style, imo.

I like Jae Lee when he's on a book that suits him. If it was some otherworldly grant Morrison title, i'm sure i'd love it. That book though? Not so much.

Pak's words come across as a bad attempt at copying Loeb, tbh.
