Looks like they added more DC comics to CMXU recently. They have even more issues of Shade available now, where last time I looked they only had the first 5 or 6. For some reason though its only the single issues instead of the tpbs like usual (which is a pain in the ass because of the borrow limit). Hope they put Morrison's Action Comics up soon.
Shade never got a full run in trades I think. Neither did Sandman Mystery Theatre.
yup, trades only go up to issue 18 I think? Huge shame.
They could atleast put the 3 tpbs for Shade on Unlimited.
Going through these issues though and its crazy how much Bachalo's art has changed. I think last time we talked about this I was thinking of his work on Generation X, which is alot closer to his current style, just without the neat tricks with blankspace and boarders.

Not yet, but thats another one im keeping my eye on. Even though its not the same person as the guy in Justice League, id still like to read something with the character.

His art from back then looks like a completely different person.
Young Justice #1: A ton of fun, and great art of Gleason. Low on explanations—when did Tim meet Bart again—but a good start to all of this.
Green Lantern #3: I wasn't entirely on board Morrison's very 2000AD Green Lantern until that last page. Leaning very, very heavy into the cop metaphor.
Spider-Miles #2: Ahmed's really settled into his voice and given him a stronger focus on his supporting cast. Liking what I'm seeing here so far.

We don't deserve Riley Rossmo. These are from the Martian Manhunter #2 preview. Theres lovelier stuff in the issue.
I got on his commission list a few days ago. I can't wait to see the results.

Captain Marvel #1 was... meh. I'll give it another issue but maybe she's just an unfixable character at this point without a complete character retcon (and I know they just did something sorta like that) because I've enjoyed literally every other Kelly Thompson I've read comic more than this. And with MCU Carol looking like she does... sorry Marvel I think you need to try again in a few years.
Otherwise everything else I read was pretty good which was nice. Miles-man has a good voice. Thor was focused all on Roz and somehow still fine (though I don't really know what she's done in universe to become so highly regarded outside of being Aaron's OC). Avengers was interesting, though I wish all this stuff had been done earlier and the Final Host garbage was cut down to only an issue or two.

Someone else said something similar earlier. Werent Tim and Bart on the original YJ together? Why wouldnt they know each other? I assume it has something to do wtih Tim being captured by Jor-el?
--------------------------
I still dont understand this whole thing with DC characters not remembering some things from before the New 52. I thought that had all been fixed by now, like how people remembered Wally West. Is that supposed to be one of the things Doomsday Clock will be "fixing"?
Everyone would be better off not trying to understand what has and hasn't happened in the current DC universe.

This is true, but Bendis will answer his own questions. There are spoilers for #1 in that link...
Yea it was a neat setup in the Rebirth one shot, but i have totally lost track of what has even happened with that plot line by now. It really should have been resolved already lol.
I don't know enough about the character to add my own opinion, but I remember reading a while back that Black Canary's current backstory/origin is super difficult to understand and explain to others.

Buying variants is going too far, you must be stopped even if it'll break my heart.
I'm sorry but this looks so cool!Buying variants is going too far, you must be stopped even if it'll break my heart.
I have a theory. Why's Connor back and like his 90s self? Tim Drake looking like old Robin? Bart? Amethyst? So on and so on. Well, Doomsday Clock was originally supposed to be done by the end of 2018, and we know it was supposed to change things, and now suddenly we have this DC universe stuff that is unexplained. My theory is that the stuff happening right now is post-Doomsday Clock and they decided to just go ahead and start some of it now and let the end of Doomsday Clock explain their return/change later in the year.
Bart came back in Flash War, but the Flashes haven't acknowledged him since. Like, this is a key Flash Family member that's been roundly ignored, I assume because Bendis called dibs. So yeah, this is more of a DC Comics problem. And Tim's been gone since Detective ended, and this is a bit harder to square with how his run there—he didn't want to do the superhero thing anymore—but then he's also met Bart?
It's just... weird.
I'm willing to ignore most of it because Young Justice is back, baby.
I mean, that's pretty much it, right?

I'm sorry but this looks so cool!
I bought a variant on Wed
I would buy Shaner variants of each character.
I'm guessing that DC has given the OK to use pre-N52 continuity but absolutely no guidelines on how to do it so weird shit is happening as different writers do whatever they want with it.

I've been finding fairly cheap second hand copies of TPBs on my local eBay equivalent, I managed to get full runs of Y the Last Man, Powers, Ex Machina, James Robinson's Starman, Chew, Irredeemable, Incorruptible, and 6 volumes of Criminal all for pretty cheap. Even if they're not as-new, it's really nice getting a full run all at once because I don't have to worry about say, volume 3 of a run being hard to find, which is especially difficult due to being in New Zealand - when you add on shipping the prices of even second hand books skyrocket. The problem now is finding the time to read them all, lol
Yea thats gotta be it.
Atleast he is acknowledging this stuff
OP

Its just nice to have some of these characters back, and Tim.
Yeah, I figured. The references in the first two pages seemed to at least hint about dealing with timey-wimey shit.
Yep.
You mean Thor Girl?
She's been around since Avengers Initiative circa Secret Invasion, at least. I think she's only been in bit parts since then, though.
Oh, IDK. That page of Batgirl showing her bullet wound and also looking like she's prepping for a Playboy shoot is pretty bad...
I mean a modern one to go with the current generation of young marvel heroes. I don't think she would work.You mean Thor Girl?

Now you're getting picky. It's not like you can get into an accident and end up with Thor powers lol.
I agree. But that was also pretty much all that was talked about (that and the Lois shot).
Now I'm actually thinking it might be possible that baby might be aged up at the end of the event. Either that or Jane gets powers again(maybe even both).
War of the Realms is actually Secret Invasion 2.
Me too. I want him to write me a personalized B&R bedtime story.
