The Diamond List for May 23rd, 2012...

[Themanofbat]

I just dropped Justice League... good art (at least the first 6 issues), but the stories have been blah...

 

[CConn]

I'm behind on all of it. Some I've only read one issue and I'm waiting for the trades.

Wonder Woman - Is the book I like best so far. Never had any interest in the character before and Azzarello has me loving what I've read.

Batman - I liked Snyder's Black Mirror arc much better than what I've read so far, but it's still really good.

Earth 2 - Don't know anything about the JSA, but the 1st issue pulled me in.

Justice League

Green Lantern

Batwoman

Supergirl

Flash

Animal Man

Stormwatch

Detective Comics (maybe)

Red Hood and the Outlaws (maybe)

and Sweet Tooth if you're counting Vertigo.

Pretty good list. Except for Detective. Stay far away from that.

If you're able, I'd also suggest...

Swamp Thing
Action Comics
Batman and Robin
Dial H

Nightwing's pretty good too. Probably better than Red Hood.

I'm on the fence myself.. I didn't buy #8 (and I'm glad I didn't), but the newest issue was actually a bit above passable.

Ah, I knew I missing something. Nightwing should have been on there already.

I've heard good thing about Action, but I just despise Superman too much to read one of his solo titles.

What is Dial H about?

 

[Themanofbat]

Swamp Thing is arguably DC's best book...

What is Dial H about?

Some fat ******* who, when he dials HERO on a magical telephone, is turned into differing superheroes.

 

[WalkingDeadMike]

Sounds like it could be fun. I'll look into it.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Yeah, Swamp Thing, Batman & Robin, and Dial H are all recommend worthy.
