If you could kill off one character from DC, who...
Damian Wayne. Seriously, where’s the 900# to call and vote this punk out of comics?

“Kick Ass” becomes a reality. This is the result.

The New DC: Wonder Woman #1 -plus- Superman #1
Here it is. The last SPOILER WARNING. I’m almost sad to see them go. One of DC’s “trinity” (aka their top three characters) was covered yesterday. Now, we have the remaining two. And no, Green Lantern doesn’t count, because Wonder Woman was in that position long before Geoff Johns got a hold of Hal Jordan. Funny thing is, I was never a big fan of Wonder Woman. No matter who it was at the helm...

The New DC: Nightwing #1 -plus- Dark Knight #1
We’re in the home stretch for all these SPOILER WARNINGs… The next-to-last set of books I picked up from the DC Relaunch, of course, have to do with Gotham City. One interesting, the other not so much. Nightwing #1 starts out explaining that Dick Grayson is back to being Nightwing after Batman was “out for a while but came back.” In light of the announcement that none of the DC Crisis...

The New DC: Flash #1 -plus- Firestorm #1
I’ll throw out the SPOILER WARNING, despite the fact that I’m pretty sure DC already kinda spoiled Firestorm, but be that as it may… The Flash and Firestorm are both characters that I’ve always really liked. Hell, one of them is what got me in to comics in the first place. However, they’re both also characters that have seen some changes in the New DC. The Flash has had his costume...

The New DC: Red Lanterns #1 -plus- New Guardians...
Only a few more SPOILER WARNINGs to go… The connection should be a bit obvious. With all the hoopla that surrounded the New DC upon its announcements, this was a title that seemed like a no-brainer from the editorial department. Let’s take the most popular of the new Color Guards and give them their own book. The idea was met with quite a bit of thumbs up - but then, once the book came...

The New DC: DC Universe Presents: Deadman#1 -plus-...
Yeah, I think the SPOILER WARNING should be implemented here. Of course I was going to check these out. Deadman is my favorite second-tier guy ever and a character I’ve always liked since I was a kid. I had to see what Paul Jenkins and Bernard Chang were going to do with one of my favorites. The answer: magic. Not since the heyday of Neal Adams have I seen a creative team present Boston Brand...

The New DC: Captain Atom #1 -plus- Resurrection...
It’s that time again, kids. SPOILER WARNING. Captain Atom and Resurrection Man were another pair of books I originally didn’t plan on picking up. Unlike the Red Hood Suicide fiasco fiasco, however, these two turned out to be very pleasant surprises. Captain Atom is a character I kept in the back of my head as being kinda cool, but never really knew a lot about. He was a bit part of some of...

The New DC: Deathstroke #1 -plus- Demon Knights #1
Don’t think I’m going to need it for this one, but I’ll insert the SPOILER WARNING here just in case. Because God forbid I give anything away in books that came out two and half weeks ago that everyone else and their mother has reviewed by now… This one’s probably not so obvious so I’ll declare now that these two are about second-tier characters that I’ve always had that warm, fuzzy...
