    Yeah, I think I see that hair on the Question, too. Go go Renee. Why don't you people like this change?

    Also, I don't see how the Dr. Fate cover reveals anything, unless you assume that's Dibny finally putting on the helmet.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's a "modified" version of the actual 52 cover to avoid real spoilers. They've did this with several of the covers. Plus we have no idea what they "ticker" or whatever will say at the bottom of the cover

    And seriously, what is the deal with JLA?

    "We've got the most exposure for the Justice League since the Super-Freinds thanks to the great cartoon, so let's make a slow-paced JLA targeted at the nostolgic thirty-something continuity fanboy, and then to make it even more unaccessable let's have a cross-over eight issues in!"

    I'm gonna go read some manga or something.

    I've read both, and I liked the first arc of New Avengers more than the new JLA so far.

    Well maybe I'm wrong then. Maybe it's more accessable then I thought.

    Because JLU has made us all love The Question. A lot of people here have loved him a lot longer, too.

    Also, there's a lot of people who don't like the idea of Renee become a costumed crimefighter, as she always disliked them.

    Plus it's just Greg Rucka killing off a great character so he can try and make his own popular.

    yes, I know he did not create Renee, but he's certainly responsible for the DCU iteration of her.

    Plus it's the needless replacement of classic characters with token minorities. Want to make the DCU more diverse? Great! Just make them into their own characters rather than killing old ones off.

    People don't like the change because the old Question was awesome and Renee is whiny and emo and can't fucking do half the shit Question can do because she's not the Question.

    Why do you even ask! Didio answered it for us! We're just resistant to all change.

    But in actual reality--you know... the one we live in--people don't like the change because the character isn't done yet. Meaning there are still countless stories that haven't been told for a mostly ignored character. Hell, that goes double. Question and Montoya. I don't see why we have to lose two characters just to get a new one that is just a mishmash of the two.
