Really? I liked Wildcats a lot more than the Authority. It was a lot more Grant Morrison. The art was kind of cringeworthy in parts, but at least the coloring hid a lot of the Jim Lee. Plus, there were too many manipped photos in the Authority. They kept sucking away my attention.
I don't know, for whatever reason it just didn't draw me in. Maybe it was my lack of knowledge of the characters, maybe it was the art? I'll probably give it one more issue to see if things pick up.

I groaned when I first opened it. I tried to pretend the words were the pictures.
Well, instead of just Claws #3 and Blade #2, I also ended up getting Trials of Shazam #1 and #2, Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter #1, and John Woo's Seven Brothers. I felt pretty good about the purchases, for the most part. Claws ended a bit flat, but it was still cool. Blade actually picked up a good bit in #2, so I'm feeling a bit better about continuing to get it. I don't know a damn thing about Captain Marvel, but Trials of Shazam has been pretty good. Anita Blake was actually really good, so good, in fact, that I actually got my wife to read it and she's probably gonna go buy the books. Seven Brothers #1 was just a setup issue, but it had some pretty cool moments.
Yeah, so my pull list just grew. I'm happy, but my wallet disapproves.

I would have to disagree with you there.
I'm not entirely surprised. I think we've agreed about something only once, very nearly destroying reality in the process. Then we disagreed about Black Panther again, thus restoring the natural order of things. :P
It wasn't the best book I picked up, but the Doctor Doom angle made more sense once I read it, and there were a couple of plot hooks that were thrown out. At least I can sorta see where Guggenheim is going with the story. On the other hand, Chaykin's art is making me want to stab myself. Oh well, I'll stick it out for the story arc and see whether I'll continue after that.
Any one know if the Amazing Spider-Girl #1 is any good? I just started getting back into comics after a bit, I saw it at the shop when I went and picked up Civil War #1. Id like to get into something from the start, but the comic made it sound like a One time thing so I didnt pick it up.
Them Runaways are they any good? It sounds pretty interesting.
