The 5th week of the Great DC Reboot of 2011 has come and gone. Now that I’ve read all 52 new #1 issues, I can finally say that overall, I was disappointed. But I was also pleased. There are enough interesting books in this pile of new issues to make me declare that the whole thing was not as horrible as I thought it would be. Let me take you through the last batch of new #1 issues as I group them in YES, MEH and BOO piles.
I’m a week late on this post thanks to some snag with my hosting service, an awesome weekend with the girlfriend and a relatively awesome couple of days working. But hey, there’s still time for me to rip into the fourth week of the DC Reboot so let’s get it on. As usual, let’s start with the YES group. I will definitely pick up the #2 issues of these books.
It’s the third week of the DC Reboot and so far, I’m still on the fence with this whole New 52 thing. Last week, I put the second wave of DC’s new #1 issues in 3 categories: YES, MEH and BOO. I had 5 titles in the YES group, 5 titles in the MEH group and 3 titles in the pathetic BOO group. This week, I pretty much stick to those numbers. Let’s start with the comics that didn’t suck.
I used the full extent of my X-Men knowledge and deductive prowess to identify the shadows in the X-Men: Regenesis teasers. Now that all the shadows have been eliminated, let’s break down who’s on whose side of the fence after X-Men: Schism. Let’s also see which of my educated guesses were right and which of them were absolutely wrong. Let’s start with Team Cyclops.
I’ve already told you about my slight disappointment with last week’s Justice League #1. Now I’m here to tell you about my mixed feelings about the second assault of the New 52. Just like in my DC Reboot�post (where I judged the event roughly 3 months before it was rolled out), I’ll be categorizing this week’s comics into groups according to how I feel about them. Let’s start with the books that I think are awesome.
