Depends on whether there's an even or odd number of "o"s!

That might have meant more to me if I read it after I watched Angel.
She knew it was going to happen. I'm not sure if that makes it better or worse. Probably worse.

I wonder if that's not Donna Troy on the cover? She's the one who wears/wore the starcloth costume, not Diana... and when she died in Graduation Day, we see her... somewhere else, picking up a sword and shield...

That would be keen, I miss Donna. She's one of my favorite characters. I hope at some point they add her to the Teen Titans toon.
Ah, I just remembered I pointed out the resemblance to Donna here:

i still can't believe Donna was killed ... i know they left a HUGE backdoor to bring her back ...and i'm sure Phil Jimenez will be doing something with her within the next year but it still sucks
Lillith AND Donna in 1 3-issue mini? By a mistaken entrance of an android from the future? If you're gonna kill off TWO characters, it's pretty bad taste to have them BOTH be women and the death itself pretty meaningless
I'd rather have Donna added to Outsiders, JSA or JLA ... but that's because i don't pick up Teen Titans at all

Is the next issue of this ever going to come out? WTF?!
I mean, I've waited so long now that I almost don't even care what happens to Kara.

Geez, Stuey, you sound like all those whining crybabies over on the DC SuperBat board... Loeb's not pointing fingers, but says the delay's not on HIS end... :rolleyes: And like I told the posters there, I could give two figs about the resolution to this storyline. I'm just pissed that they're holding up Pacheco's artwork on the next arc for Turner's crap. I don't know why DC is so high on him... I find his covers on IC totally unnecessary.

Did you get this, Stu? I looked through it at the shop. Nice enough, but NOT worth the wait.
And I wonder if the Marvel Family's going to sue Kara for stealing their gold trim??? :rolleyes:

Haven't picked it up yet.
At this point, what I'm really looking forward to is the last issue of The New Frontier. I'll read Superman/Batman, but a lot of the momentum is gone.

I certainly don't see anything that made it worth the wait. The delay sure took the wind out of its sails as far as I'm concerned and for a nothing story.

I'll have to rummage through my stack of books again but I don't remember this being in mine. Its been so long though I probably didn't realize what I was seeing when I picked up my holds.
I hate long pauses between issues, especially right in the middle of a story arc. Like Vee said it just take the wind out of it, making it not as enjoyable. But since the we know the LSV (or something similar) is showing up I'll keep getting the book.

i got the latest issue, but like you guy's the wait, is killing the story a little, for me !!!
i think it was 10 weeks ago, that the previous isuue had come out !!! that's a long wait .....
and since we had those preview shots and info on the LSV appearing, i'm looking forward to that now !!!
speaking of this arc, there with an interview with JEPH LOEB in last months "WIZARD" stating that, this arc .... isn't an "ELSEWORLDS" story ????

SUPERMAN BATMAN #26
Wow, that last story had an impact. I cried when I saw the author's photo at the end of the issue. What a sad waste of what could've been quite a talent-- not to mention a life.

I'm now only picking this title up when I can't resist the 'guest stars'.
This month, it's the Metal Men-- along with new MM, Copper. And Gold's head.
I can't say I'm wild about some of the redesigns, especially Lead's-- but I don't exactly cringe at them, either. OK, I did at first sight, but as the story went on, I didn't.
And 'Platina'? Ugh. What was wrong with 'Platinum', nick-named Tina? I am glad to see a second female in Copper (which is my 'favorite' metal, by the way).
Is this version of the team the one that's going to get their own title in the fall, or we in for another reinvisioning?
Either way, I'll likely pick it up. I enjoyed them, here-- even if they were pretty much fodder for Brainiac's 'possession'.
The Brainiac as nano-virus bit was... interesting. Is this guy still Brainiac 5's biological ancestor? How did that happen, again?
Frankly, I don't pay much attention to the stuff Supes and Bats are doing in the issues of this title I pick up. I consider this, along with Supergirl, as one of the more impenetrable titles out there.
LSH, Hawkman, Donna Troy and X-men continuities are child's play, in comparison.

Like Mystery Lad, I only get this for the guest stars. It was great to see the Metal Men back although Lead does look a little cartoony and "Platina" seems an unnecessary change. The way Platina hung on Doc's shoulder made her look like a gangster's moll. Are the Metal Men going to be the bad boys of superheroes? Will they steal gold to complete Gold's body? Copper's a good addition and I'm curious if the two females will be friends or foes. The story gets into humans' fear of/distaste for mechanical beings; this could become a theme of any future Metal Men stories - it's more topical now than it was in the 60s. This seems to be the version for the upcoming miniseries, according to this preview cover .
Holy Cats of Egypt!
