I figured there should be one because this mini f**king rocks. Last ish was just awesome. Really showed you how great a leader Uncle Sam is. Can't wait to see whats up with the new Condor.

There are just not enough cats rocking the Mohawk in comics these days.
 
I wish Stan Silver would **** off.

But, this mini does indeed rock (which is amazing considering Battle for Bludhaven was incredibly bad).

New Black Condor looks like he came right out of Grant Morisson's sketchbook. I'd be surprised if he wasn't Native American considering how DC are pushing the multi-national's at the moment.
 
This mini is delicious, like grape drink.

Grape drink >Sunny D.
 
Palmiotti and Gray just signed DC exclusives, hopefully thats working towards an Uncle Sam ongoing.
 
Aren't they supposed to be doing Heroes for Hire over at Marvel?

They say they have like 6 issues done, but yeah I dont think they planned on staying long.
 
As I was reading issue 2, I couldn't help but think "Uncle Sam: Badass" as he was going through the team members and their dark secrets.

I also can't wait to see the new Black Condor. :up:

This mini's really been a treat so far. :cool:
 
I know right? Uncle Sam just rocks. I can't wait for him to roll up the old sleeves and kick the crap out of Father time.
 
The first issue didn't grab me, but the second was awesome!!! Uncle Sam for DC Universe American President!!!
 
Why is there a new Ray, didn't the second Ray survive?
 
Maybe the new one will die and the old one will take over for him.
 
I think this is a great series, but I just don't feel a lot of stake in or connection to these characters at the moment. I'll probably just get the trade.

I'm so glad I didn't pick up H4H. It is so cancelled.:D

This book is awesome. I've never read any Freedom Fighters book before, and am still thoroughly enjoying this. Art is groovy too.
 
Just picked this up today and am glad I did. This book does in fact rock. Hoping for an Uncle Sam ongoing.
 
Preview for #3 from Newsarama check out the link for character designs for the new Black Condor.

I think the art is just astonishing. Love the Jonah Hex cameo.

great stuff. the design for condor could've looked better tho.

War paint is my only gripe. It doesnt look right.
 
This comic is ****ing great. I wish it became an ongoing, but its not doing so hot sales wise.

[Sleazy Too-Comfortable Advertiser Voice]For years, Gonzo the Mechanical Bastard has been running the country. Behind the scenes, his machinations have led us into a Crisis in Time, the nigh-apocalyptic Final Night, and most recently, an Infinite Crisis which nearly destroyed the entire universe and, worse, sent the federal debt skyrocketing. It was on Gonzo's watch that the paragon of what is good about America, Superman, perished, and it was no thanks to Gonzo that Superman returned.

Gonzo's puppets and thugs tell you that they have America's best interests at heart, but the America they speak of is an America governed of the powerful, by the powerful, for the powerful.

It's time for a change in American politics. Let's send a message to the power brokers that Americans are taking America back. Gonzo's strongarm foreign policy and outmoded "free market" domestic thinking have had their chance. It's time for a change. That's why Uncle Sam, valiant Freedom Fighter and brave surviving superhero of the Infinite Crisis, is asking for your vote.[/Sleazy Too-Comfortable Advertiser Voice]

Uncle Sam: If elected to this most honorable office, the Presidency, I can't promise too much of anything, so I ain't gonna. But I'll listen to the voices of my people, and to the voices of the downtrodden and oppressed everywhere. Because that's what I do.

[Sleazy Too-Comfortable Advertiser Voice]Pledge your vote to the man, to the idea, that this country was literally founded upon. Vote Uncle Sam in 2008.[/Sleazy Too-Comfortable Advertiser Voice]

Uncle Sam: I'm Uncle Sam, the Spirit of America, and I approved this message.
 
Gonzo? They're fighting Hunter S. Thompson?
