Is any other comic book fan mad about this whole 52 comic from DC?

52 isn't like other crossovers. All the other comic books are jumping over the year that 52 covers. So you'll be able to continue read all the other comics but the storylines will have advanced. \n\nIt's an intriguing idea as there will be grand changes in all the other comics and you'll wonder what happened to get you to that point. It's a genius way to get people to read 52. Example- Catwoman is changing and it will happen in the jump but be explained in 52. \n\nI'm not a fan of 52 (then again, I'm not a fan of DC Comics, period) but I'm all for experimentation.

The thing is.. he's just got such a whiny bastard voice - and ug, pretension. I like my pretension and whine perfectly mixed. He's just a bit too much of both for me.\n\nI mean, I guess he's heart-felt enough and the hipsters sure are feeling it.

I read Secret Wars as it came out, and found it quite enjoyable.  I was, after all, a kid, and the notion of all those heroes and villains together in one series was very exciting.  Spider-Man getting a new costume?  Awesome!\n\nI read it again last year, and needless to see, it didn't hold up well at all.  Hokey dialogue, terrible art in places, and a contrived plot that had more holes in it than one of my moth-eaten shirts up in attic.  That said, there were still some entertaining parts, not the least of which being Doom's contstant comedic foil, Klaw.  His incoherent babblings caused Doom to utter perhaps the greatest line of the series:  "So. I've created a madman. SIGH."

I read the chapter in that BRAVE NEW WORLDS comic that was a $1---and was nt impressed at all!   And the first issue did nothing to change my mind!  Not gonna go buying anymore of that stuff!  The sense of wonder / discovery is totally gone-which to me was the fun part for old jonn!!\n\ngrade= D+

Yes, I watch it all the time. I think it will be cool to see where the story goes and if Robin is as mad at her mom as her dad. I wonder if they'll do a cross over again between the stories to explain where she has been.

good question...the future looks bleak for the DC heroes, and although we can only speculate at this point in the game i think its safe to say that this Crisis is going to rock the pillars of the DCU. bringing back Superman from Earth-2 is going to have major repurcussions, and as you pointed out, the death toll seems to be rising...last time there was a Crisis in the DCU, the Barry Allen Flash was killed off, and Dan Didio has hinted heavily that something may be happening to a current speedster in the current Crisis...however, another thing that seems interesting is the number of "dead characters" that have been brought back since the last Crisis. it would seem that something, perhaps a repurcussion from Crisis on Infinite Earths is causing death to no longer be as permanent condition as it used to be...maybe we will learn something in that regard too....\n\ni can't wait to see what happens.

Marve's entire reason for existence is to make a buck, my friend.  Why else were there over a half-dozen Spiderman titles until recently? Why else did they recently reboot the character so that a younger person can be Spidey?\nI haven't read Civil War 2 yet, but it is a pretty interesting storyline idea. I think it is a lot more complex than when i was a kid. that's both good and bad. I cannot share most of today's comics with my nephews or nieces, since most of them are too adult for them. But that's where the money is, you see? Adult readers and collectors.

Yes, by all means read it.  It is all that and a bag of chips, no doubt.  I promise.  You will probably be a better person for it.\n\nI DO  recommend reading the second volume first, then the first volume (and maybe/not) reread the second and then the rest in order.  I've found that for the non-hardcore fantasy fan, this works a little better, as the writing in the first collection is still a little tentative, like he hadn't quite figured out his game plan.  Neil Gaiman himself has said that it didn't quite come together until issue #8, both the coda to the first collected & the prologue to the second.\n\nHe also wrote three additional Sandman books after the series concluded; in my opinion, these are best tackled after finishing the collected #s1-10.

there was a graphic novel called dc vs. marvel, where a dc character fought a marvel character. the result was that the dc universe and the marvel universe ended up merging, which meant merging the characters - batman and wolverine, flash and quicksilver, superman and captain america, spider-man and superboy, etc. it was supposed to boost comics sales for both publishers. it was different, but never meant to last

I think Wanted is a fantastic comic - I suggest that you hold on to it - there is a rumor they're going to make a movie from it - if you sell it around the time the movie comes out, you stand to make a LOT more, since interest will be high.

I just looked it up, on the net, its much, much, much ado about nothing.  God can handle it himself, I wouldn,t worry about what Jerry Falwell says, some of the cartoons were in the 12 yr old range anyway, God know doubt has better things to do, he isn,t slipping around looking for comics to zap. Anyway blessed our we who can laugh at ourselves For we shall never cease to be amused.  \n\nBlubla

I remember his name & likeness in one little comic strip. I didn't save it but I remember reading it about five years ago. That doesn't mean he wasn't featured in more comics, there are so many and I'm not really a collector.
