Batwing coming to see his "dear friend" Vixen because they are both from her "native Africa."
And three people died,
Gavril and the two UN Handlers. All for pretty much no reason, since they were three of the newest characters in the book. And Bea is going to end up in a coma indefinitely, most likely.
Did anyone here read Stormwatch #8? I saw a couple or so pages posted on Scans_Daily.
Sure fans of the Apollo-Midnighter-Jenny Quantum family dynamic weren't too happy with what Midnighter did. I did have a bit of a laugh over the general first reaction to the last page about Jenny deciding something that Midnighter won't like.
"OMG, she used her powers and turned him straight!" "DON'T EVEN JOKE ABOUT IT!"

He's been around for less than 2 years, it's bullshit! And his UN handlers were brand new characters for this book, and one of them was really cool. The other didn't really have any personality yet and just served as a foil, but she could've been cool too.

Argh!
I still think he's not dead.
he got zapped with some tech ray in the first story arc, I think issue 5, where it looked like he might have uploaded or been connected to something. He'll come back as a Red Tornado thing (oh wait, what if he becomes the new Red Tornado because of it? Red commie, Red boring android?)
I'm not sure what the series was meant to be building up to, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't what we got.
It seemed like that's what they had been planning, but that they had to rush it, condense it, and pull big parts of it that hadn't been established yet.
It had a lot more form to it than a lot of canceled book finales do, plus Giffen and Didio always sounded like they had the whole thing planned to the end whenever they were interviewed.

The more I see of Kara's costume, the more I'm starting to come around to it. Her old costume was a classic, but this one I'm alright with.
Geoforce is a really good example of how much that approach sucks.
First of all, the dude can shoot rocks and lava and stuff, but you'd never know it by looking at him. For whatever reason, the most compelling aspects of the character play no role in his costume whatsoever.
Second of all, 99% of people are going to assume that his name is Girlfriend.
Geo-Force looks like the mascot for a sandwich shop.
Kinda want to do the Geo-Force redesign I've been sitting on, now. It's basically the "worthy" Thing, but more regal and aristocratic.
Lava rocks would do a better job of emphasizing his power set, and the juxtaposition of regality and brutishness would be really interesting and help the character stand out more.

His original brown and tan costume was the better one. At least, ya know, earth tones.

G-Man and Great Man work with the G on their chest.
Other than those two and the Superman Family, it doesn't work though.

I don't know why, but now I want to see a male superhero named Girlfriend.

It's almost as bad as
And three people died,
Fuuuuuuuuck that
Ha ha, that's awful.
I bet they met at Africa University.

Actually there's a whole page of dialogue about them meeting at an AIDS clinic they were both volunteering for. It's really not that bad.
"OMG, she used her powers and turned him straight!" "DON'T EVEN JOKE ABOUT IT!"
Let's Play Final Fantasy 'II' (Ch10 - 5/17/10)
Delicious.
that blur effect looks terrible
I know!

From certain angles, it looks like she's got a big yellow areola.

What
Why
You have a dirty mind
All it takes is for the logo to appear a little lower on her breast.
It's just a really unfortunate design decision, especially given the fact that the new costume is supposed to be less sexually suggestive.

Maguire does a better job making it look less like mom hair.
Still hate it and I think I always will.
At best it looks like a rather ugly speed-skating outfit with a cape.
Is that outfit different from the earlier art we saw?
'Cuz I don't remember PG's new outfit looking that bad.
I...am now really wishing they had just kept her old outfit and filled in the boob window.
Yeah, there was another outfit, but they don't seem to be using it anymore.

For a minute there I thought I had woken up in an alternate universe.
I still think the "P" on the chest is uninspired, though.

I looked at that one and went oh good Perez cleaned things up Kara doesn't look 45 any more
Superman can get away with it, but nobody else can.

He can even look exactly like that guy.
The dialogue possibilities are too damn good.
haha you should write for family guy
Series of one-shot stories about characters who don't currently have their own series, sort of like First Issue Special.
