When I achieve my corporate takeover of DC, I'm going to cancel all comics with the words "Justice League" in the title. The entire line will be devoted only to the Legion and the JSA.

The day after that, I'll grow wings. sigh

I'm ashamed to admit this, but I'm halfway tempted to get it because I love that creative team. frown

My Legion collection will definitely end with LSH #23. Once I buy that issue I will be done with DC Comics!

That's entirely true, sadly enough. I don't know how i'm going to react emotionally when I'm holding that last issue. I think I might cry.

me too, normally i would buy whatever these guys did (or at least try it) but ... this is kind of gross ... i don't see how this could appeal to them as creators ... unless they need the money.

at least she has pants! wink

I think that red hair is a marketing teaser ... to start buzz about who it could or couldn't be ... i wouldn't read anything into it. after going to comic con and seeing how dc released their info or released some mis information just to get people hysterical ... i dont believe what they say until it comes out.

especially since they said the reboot was going to open things up creatively but ... they just gave us cliff's notes horror versions of the same stuff we had before.

Same here... Love the creative team... hate the concept (would even hate it if it didn't replace the Legion.

Maybe one of them's Projectra and she's just disguising them.

Over at Bleeding Cool they're speculating that the 'Flash' could be Don Allen, which would be... interesting (I've always wanted to see more of the tragic Don and Dawn Allen).

But in all other respects, yeah - this comic looks awful.

Heck, if this is supposed to be set in the year 3000, I'd expect at least two out of five of them to not even be humanoid!

Even the Green Lantern is a human(oid)? Wow. The new DCU still hasn't caught up to the late 80's, when Earth-bound Green Lanterns included Ch'p, Kilowogg and Salaak.

ha!

I second that. It just looks really bad despite any feelings or critical analysis I might have. It looks like one of those knock off grocery store comics they used to put out ... random one shots in the 80s. Like a comic for really young kids or people not actually following comic books. (a coloring book or learn to draw book ... something really amateurish about it)

Justice League Beyond is existing ... and looks WAY BETTER.

That's not too far off. As it is, Archie comics sell better than DC so maybe DC is going for the Archie-buck with this one.
