Nope it finally (thankfully) got the axe. The most recent batch of cancellations will include it, Birds of Prey, All-Star Western, and a few other titles which are escaping me right now. But it's safe to say these were all very low selling titles.

I never cared much for all the Court of The Owls stuff (but having all the Batman trades on my shelf is pretty satisfying) so I'm surprised they made a spin off of some random Talon.
In other news I bought that special edition version of The Killing Joke released in...05(?) to brush up on the story after reading Batgirl. Firstly, the presentation of the book is gorgeous, especially with the new colouring - it puts modern art (or at least all the art I've experienced in New 52) to shame. The only weird thing about it, is Batman has changed a LOT since that comic was written. I barely recognised him, honestly.

I love teh hard cover to The Killing Joke because it also includes some extra stories.
BTW, if you like The Killing Joke check out Superman: Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow. It is also by Alan Moore and acts as a nice conclusion to Superman's story. It also includes For the Man Who Has Everything and then a Superman/Swamp Thing crossover. |

The Authority?
BTW, we finished episodes 15-18 of Arrow S2 last night and I was about ready to soil myself when they mentioned Manheim in one episode as I was almost expecting them to bring in Darkseid. They didn't, but it would have been pretty damn awesome. Only five episodes to go. I cannot wait for S3, Flash, and Constantine this Fall. |

It's like ultra violent and very on the nose.
The Midnighter (Batman) and Apollo (Superman) are married, in one story Apollo gets raped and the Midnighter returns this by raping the rapist back...with a jackhammer. There is also a guy called the Doctor who can do ANYTHING and a guy called Jack who can talk to cities.

No, Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow is a two part story of a reporter interviewing Lois about the last days of Superman before he disappeared.
