Bane is in capable hands already. ,i seriously hope March sees the release of the next wave of mini's.Seeing that Penguin and Huntress end in Feb.I don't think writers are gonna take Finch seriously.Who in their right minds would use One-face?Penguin is'nt like the Finch version either.

Hal and Aquaman are begging for a serious spanking and hopefully Darkseid will oblige.

Zeke ended up with Tony beating the Stane out of him, I wouldn't call him a mary sue.

No, but hating on Fraction and everything he does is a joy that never gets old.

That's why Geoff is ripping off his writing style.

LOL.
Speaking of Geoff, I mildly enjoyed his Wonder Woman, which is a miracle because his previous attempts at writing Wonder Woman were LOLstupid.
Also, the world blaming the heroes for everything got old VERY fast. if that's the kind of stories you want to write, Geoff, go to Marvel.

At Marvel they don't really blame the heroes, they simply blame the mutants.
His Wonder Woman stood out for me in this issue. Plenty of cameos from other characters, too.

Sure, really. One instance doesn't mean it happens every day.
I haven't read a single WW issue yet.

(Yes, I say that with all the expert knowledge of reading maybe 5 Spider-man comics in my life. For any further information, I refer you to my sig). I can't really make up my mind about it. the first issue was lame. The second issue was much better and the third issue was not as bad as the first, but still meh to me. The series seems to have some rather interesting concepts and characters put out, but it's not really working. Plus, Wonder Woman herself is pretty generic so far. I know it's only three issues in, but Simone's, and even Straczynski's Wonder Woman had plenty more character. Hell, even Johns'.

What did you think of the reveal in WW? Well, first of all, am I the only one who thought the reveal happened in the previous issue? Seriously, she called her sister, all pieces kinda fit in from there on. Second, I'm not really sure about it. It does make a lot of sense, but I don't know, isn't one of the key aspects in Wonder Woman that she had no male involvement in her life whatsoever, father/sperm donor included? I'm gonna wait and see what comes out of it because I really can't decide right now. Also, I wonder what this means for Wonder Girl, who canonically WAS the daughter of Zeus, and unless I'm mistaken still is that. The execution was most certainly clumsy though. A whole issue to tell us that Zeus likes to chase everything with a hole between its legs like we didn't know that already? And then all of a sudden the Amazons feels resentment for Wonder Woman we never got to see before and have no idea why, and Diana has brought shame on the island for what, having a father? Bringing that girl to the island? Indirectly getting Amazons killed? Ultimately it was just a badly executed move to get Diana off the island and into the world as soon as possible.

They just lit the city in red and blue in his honour. Bwah. I actually finished reading Azzarello's run on Hellblazer a couple of days ago, and also had a discussion about how his stories can read in a convoluted, odd, or even out of character manner for the main heroes (citing For Tomorrow as something similar), at least if you're reading it month in month out, while still being good in their own right when you can finally see the bigger picture, so maybe that's just his style?
