AMAZONS ATTACK #1
Written by Will Pfeifer
Art and cover by Pete Woods
Spinning out of the pages of Jodi Picoult's WONDER WOMAN comes the first major comics event of 2007! Well over a year has passed since the events of INFINITE CRISIS, including the retreat of the Amazons to the realm of the Gods. But now they’re back, screaming for vengeance! What could compel the Amazons to renounce their peaceful ways and attack America? The answers will prove useless to a country and hero population utterly unprepared for this savage attack. And where is Wonder Woman while all this is going on?
Written by Will Pfeifer (CATWOMAN, INFINITE CRISIS: THE SPECTRE) and illustrated by Pete Woods (SUPERMAN: UP, UP AND AWAY, SUPERMAN: BACK IN ACTION), this series unites the former Catwoman team for a story that will have devastating ramifications both in the present and all the way into 2008!

Buahahaha!

Good to hear the trades for 52 are going to roll out.Might actually check it out.All 13 issues would have cost around $45 for us Canucks.
 
Nightwing Annual must be mine. Also, Michael Turner, stop, please stop making such craptastic covers, no, just stop making covers.

And Alex Ross. Thats it, you're going down.

Reading 52 on a weekly basis was such an experience, the extra six bucks I spent on the individual issues were really well-worth it.
 
Nightwing Annual must be mine. Also, Michael Turner, stop, please stop making such craptastic covers, no, just stop making covers.

And Alex Ross. Thats it, you're going down.

That cover is by Jimenez isn't it?
 
How are Barbara and Dick a "starcrossed" couple again? according to that Nightwing annual they were one.
 
Yes it is, He's just a ******.


How the **** is some one who bashes Alex Ross going to comment on good taste?

How the **** not? I mean Alex Ross is great and all, but he's been doing the same boring ass **** for the last 5 years. I've sene you draw the League a hundred times already, I've already seen the JSA black background cover at least 20 times. It's time to do something new. I don't put Ross on a pedestal like most. Great artist, just hasn't done anything original in a while.
