I too was annoyed by the unnecessary murdering of Zod, the implication of genocide and the fact that Superman was happy to level a city but my GOD was that city levelling awesome. Was it better suited to another character? Yes, but I've long been disappointed with superhero movie action and I'm glad a comicbook movie finally satisfied my love for epic superhuman violence

I loved Man of Steel, I loved learning a lot about Krypton and Superman fighting villains on his level. I hope they can make a good Green Lantern movie soon.

I like to say I'm a big DC fan but I'll be perfectly honest in saying I haven't really kept up with New 52, I just couldn't get my ahead around it. It's like every character started at a different point in time and then when two or more characters crossed over we were at another time still. Grr.
Still, I picked up a big collection of Aquaman stuff (currently up to issue thirteen and from here it starts swinging in and out of Justice League which is really frustrating). The Aquaman stuff is great though and if you're like me and have been struggling with what has been hilariously marketed as a window in for new readers, then Aquaman really is a comic for the newbies. and I've checked out the Superman Unchained stuff (all two issues of it). Not really a big fan of Jim Lee's art but you can tell Snyder wrote this, it also seems to follow on directly from New 52 Superman, which I haven't read but the comic doesn't appear to have really tried anything new so you wont be lost, looks like Superman is just going through the motions. Meh.

Huh, totally missed this thread.
I've been a big DC fan for about ten years now. Got sucked in with JSA and Infinite Crisis and have spent a lot of the intervening years reading current releases and poring over the back catalog. My favorite franchises are the Justice League and Justice Society (I've actually read every issue of the JL from B&tB 28 - present, including spin-offs). The New 52 very nearly lost me and I'm still not a big fan of most of the changes, but there are still some books out there that I love. Right now Earth 2 is easily my favorite mainstream comic book and I'm incredibly pumped for Justice League 3000 and the return of the best creative team in the history of comics (Giffen/DeMatteis/Maguire). |

Picked up the first issue of Batman '66 the other week. While I can't see me buying it monthly, they got the tone of the Adam West series down excellently and its definitely something I can see myself getting the TPBs of. Between this and the figures I'm loving the 1966 Batman resurgence Currently my monthly DC list consists of: - Batman - Batgirl - World's Finest - Ame-Comi Girls The novelty of Ame-Comi Girls is beginning to wear off, so I'll probably be dropping that soon. I'm loving World's Finest, and as long as Gail Simone keeps writing Batgirl that's a definite buy. Batman I was ready to drop simply for the sake of saving some money, but I'm enjoying Zero Year A LOT (much more than Miller's Year One, controversial opinion I know) so that's a keeper for now. Dropping Birds of Prey was hard. Simone-era Birds is hands down my favourite DC title but the new 52 version was pretty weak and swapping Katana with a Talon was pretty much the last straw.

I think 3000 starts in October. I'm pretty excited myself but I've been largely unimpressed with what little I could follow of New 52, so time will tell on this.
