DC Comics - The New 52 - Week 4...


If you're not aware, DC Comics have recently relaunched their entire line of books, and as someone who has never read any DC before, I thought this would be a good time to jump on-board. Once I started reading them, however, it occurred to me that I might lose track of which ones I do and don't like, so I've decided to do mini-reviews for each as I go.

I've rated each one I've read, given my quick thoughts, and a final verdict. "Subscribe" means I'm on for the ride, "Pull" means I'm not sold and will see how the next issue or two pan out, whereas "Drop" means I have no interest in reading any further issues.
