It's not pronounced "Al Ghoul," either, yet everyone pronounces it that way, anyway.

Grundy was impressively boring for a villain who was destroying the whole planet while fighting our "Wonders" at the same time.

The artwork was mostly bland and forgettable which was problematic as this book was basically one long fight sequence with very little plot or character moments to take the weight off of the artwork.

I might check out the second trade but if it's a repeat of the first I don't think I'll be taking this much further.
Here's some incentive:

Dr Fate was really the only thing that made suffering through Vol 2 worth it. However, the comic is still not that good, but then, unless it has Swamp Thing or Animal Man in the title, it really isn't good at all.

So KRX, what is his last name pronounced then?

I don't know. Justice League Dark is an interesting read. Sword of Sorcery is short but sweet. Talon is incredibly under-rated. Justice League International was fun. And I liked Grant Morrison's run on Action Comics… I think.

I can't properly describe it through the Internet because the sound does not exist in the English language. "Ra's" places a greater emphasis on the "R" than the "raish" pronounciation; "al" is pronounced with a thicker tongue; and "Ghul" is a guttural sound.

JLDark started out good but then it just dropped the vampire story out of the blue in Volume 2 making it completely and utterly pointless and a waste of time.

The Books of Magic story arc was still quite interesting. Then again, I'm easy to please.

But I think more people should take the time out of their day to appreciate Calvin Rose.

You know who's awesome?

I have high hopes for JM Dematteis's run now that we're done with that neverending Forever Evil sidetrack.

Calvin Rose, star of James Tynion IV's series Talon. Or, as I like to call him, Calvin Rose, the Man Without Pants!

Oh, right.

That still exists?

I legitimately forgot it existed. Like Batwing, which is apparently also still around.
