Michael Straczynski is having a heap of trouble with his new DC work, isn't he? His Brave and the Bold went over very well, but there's outcry over the new Wonder Woman direction, and Superman #701 didn't get very good reviews. I am glad to see a more Earth-bound Superman, but neither the post-event Superman nor Batman plans have really jumped out at me yet.collectededitionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14698269790653953645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-34192296420471824222010-07-16T04:25:38.080-05:002010-07-16T04:25:38.080-05:00I feel that the event was rather decently handled....I feel that the event was rather decently handled.From someone who needs to buy all the trades connected in the event,that's saying something.It's still a lot of books,none of which are peripheral....you eventually need to buy SUPERGIRL,MON-EL,NIGHTWING & FLAMEBIRD,CODENAME PATRIOT but the payoff was decent at least till the end of NK per se....yet to read LAST STAND & WAR OF THE SUPERMEN.Just a thought,but would have loved SUPERGIRL to come out in HC to balance all collections.Aalok Madhusudan Joshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14837619279211378828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-71168154264700597522010-07-15T18:08:34.328-05:002010-07-15T18:08:34.328-05:00I've read that the NK ending didn't bode w...I've read that the NK ending didn't bode well with fans but I am looking forward to it. I've enjoyed it for the most part; CE, I am also looking forward to having the whole collection so I can sit down one day and read it all together.<br /><br />I'm actually happy this was contained to just the super books. I think WONK could of just been done in one of the super books rather than have the mini. You probably could of combined the Mon-el and N&F trades into one.deletehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12856724984415756953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-55595646751536070522010-07-15T17:59:16.883-05:002010-07-15T17:59:16.883-05:00The good news is that the entire Last Stand of New...The good news is that the entire Last Stand of New Krypton mega-cross-over storyline and its aftermath are the overall highlight of the entire run.

It's impressive in its scope -- if you consider books like Superman: Last Son, then this storyline has been going on almost nonstop since Infinite Crisis; the same is true for the current Batman saga, too. <br /><br />It's just unfortunate New Krypton hasn't really grabbed the public consciousness nor did it tie in to any really large DC event; it's ended up being "just" a Superman story, though a good one, but not an event like Blackest Night.collectededitionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14698269790653953645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-19303318720431472422010-07-15T10:53:14.485-05:002010-07-15T10:53:14.485-05:00I bought this a couple of week ago and sat down an...I bought this a couple of week ago and sat down and read through all the NK trades. I am getting a little fatigued; but overall I did enjoy the read. I like what Robinson is doing, exploring Supes as a regular person among the kryptonians, you can really get to the inner character when he is no one special anymore because there's 100,000 "supermen." He's not unique anymore.<br /><br />I just can't wait till this is finally all out in trade. Hurry up DC, War of the Superman ended two months ago.deletehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12856724984415756953noreply@blogger.com
