[The Leaguer]

It is, I'm not sure where he got Busiek.

 

[Mogwai]

I haven't read anything regarding Busiek filling in on WW.

Darth being wrong must needs more posts.

 

[The Leaguer]

Yes, Darth being wrong MUST needs more posts.

 

[CConn]

All Phere's bases are belong to us.

 

[The Leaguer]

Phere must needs more bases.

 

[Darthphere]

That was the rumor when I posted it, blame that *****ebag Rich Johnston.

 

[The Leaguer]

Rich Johnston being wrong must needs more posts.

 

[GNR]

Leaguer being an ass needs more posts...huh?

 

[The Leaguer]

Where did that come from?

 

[Darthphere]

GNR has upped his ******* meter about 75% so he's pretty much a giant flaming *****ebag all the time now. We like it.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

all he's doing is looking up to you.

[The Leaguer]

That's not an error. Superman loves himself.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

ahhh a perfect issue! art and writing was top notch. hope no filler comes next issue.

 

[The Leaguer]

Your sarcasm needs work, GAH, I actually thought you liked this horrible issue. I was able to figure out it was sarcasm, though, because I know that not even you have taste that terrible.

 

[Darthphere]

Its better than Johns and Donner, thats for sure.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Ugh....GAH is actually right for once. It's really nice to see Pacheco back on the book and the Camelot Falls story back on track. And the mention of Chris Kent was good.

Is it just me or is the number of Kryptonians rising to absurd numbers:

- Superman
- Supergirl
- Chris Kent
- Power Girl
- Zod
- Ursa
- Non
- unknown Kryptonian

 

[The Leaguer]

It's not nice at all.

 

[sethcohen]

mention of chris kent =/= good... not even close that means that lil krypto-bast'd is stickin around... yuck

 

[CConn]

I liked it, but I haven't read it yet.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

question for you guys is action comics worth picking up? especially the donner and john run? I've been hanging out in the thread and all i see is negative reveiws with a few hopefulls from darth.

 

[CConn]

Everyone here hates the Donner/Johns run with a passion.

 

[hippie_hunter]

I'm liking Johns and Donners' run on Action Comics. My huge problem with it is that I picked it up for Johns and Donner and because it is being plagued with delays, I'm reading fill-in after fill-in.

The fill-ins are not bad stories, but they're not what I want or pay for. I'm seriously considering on dropping Action Comics until they come back and only buy the issues they write.

 

[CConn]

I'm just buying it in trade.
