Koete Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Countdown was utter crap. I told myself I'd never buy another weekly series. But...I had to check out my man Bags at DC. So I told myself, alright I'll give it one month. One issue in, and it already pounded all 51 issues of Countdown into the dirt. Characterization was great, Bagley's art was excellent, and the back up seemed to tie into the main story. If you had reservations about a weekly series after Countdown, this is a completely different book and deserves a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 I saw very little of that in the preview at Newsarama (hate the new Newsarama by the way) but did kind of like the art. I may flip through it at the local if they have a copy tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 Picked this up and read it last night. I liked the main story, the characterization and the writing of the three heroes. It was great. But the backup story was fucking horrendously amateurish. What a piece of shit that was in muddled storytelling and terrible, terrible art (sorry Scott Mcdaniel, but you can do better). I won't be picking this up ever, unless they publish the trades separately. Bagley does a great Superman, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
