Wednesday Comics #1 - Favorite Feature

[Evil Twin]

So, those who read it, what's your favorite?

 

[Tarnish]

For me, Metal Men... with Hawkman a close second.

Though, the only ones I didn't like at all were Teen Titans and Wonder Woman.

 

[NightBeetle]

A tie between Green Lantern and Deadman

 

[Kevin Smith]

Flash! Loved it. Old school-ish, loved Barry in it, humorous and serious, loved the art, very good! Exactly what The Flash should be!

Kamandi. It looks and reads like a classic newspaper strip. I ate up every panel. It's also cool when your favorite turns out to be a character that you're not as familiar with. At the end, I had that feeling of anticipation for the next installment that just tells you when you've got a great story in your hands...

 

[Dirt Like Me]

My pick is Metamorpho. My knee-jerk pick after I first read the paper might have been Deadman, but I've found myself re-reading Metamorpho since then. There's just something about the cheesy, expository dialogue that appealed to me in this format. ("Aww gee, Saph. Any elemental freak with metamorphic powers and a crush on you woulda done the same..."). The art fit the writing in the sense that it was simple, but effective. And the "Mystery Villain?: To Be Revealed" just cracked me up.

Overall, though, I thought this issue was a home run. While I was also a bit underwhelmed by Teen Titans , each of the other strips did enough to make me curious to see the next chapter. If the next eleven installments of Wednesday Comics are as good as this one was, none of us will complain about dropping $48 on the series. Good for DC to try something so different. I hope it sells well.
