Dating he "knew something was wrong" is a cop out short cut. If the timeline changed to never have pizza, you wouldn't dream of it and think it's missing.

Booster Gold is exactly how he's been, especially Actions comics recently its like the character jumped from there to here. This is also elseworld style so bruce's parents never died and he didnt learn any lessons so I imagine he would be insane to then give up his parents, considering this run has focused on how much he clearly misses them!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-76770018607427448282018-04-20T03:08:50.535-04:002018-04-20T03:08:50.535-04:00Sorry for these deleted comments.

I like opinion of Jim Werne...Uff, how many replies.<br />I like opinion of Jim Werner. I don´t say that nobody has to criticize King´s run (also Morrison´s which I like too). But when I wrote my comment I had same feeling as Chris O'Neil - that Eric lost objectivity to the title and he just don´t like it. So I´ve asked why he is reading it again - just for bad review? Or he is hoping that he can find some good regular issue?<br />I know that they are people who don't like King´r run and they have to have some site who say it. I like that you have two reviews. Because you can like or dislike King´s run but it definitely be one of most important in Batman´s history. Not only because of wedding.<br />Batman will have 80 years soon too and in his history there were only few longer run. Before Morrison, I know only about O´Neils from 70s. After 2006, there were 3 - Morrison, Snyder and King. Every run created lot of new things, changed things in history and in present. Every one of there runs has lot of readers who hates it. And I´m not against them. I just wanted to know why is Eric still reading it, if only for review or if is he still hopping. And why is he still reviewing it if he didn´t found nothing very interesting in 20 issues. If it is because he wants just to give people opposite view as another sites, it is ok. I just wanted to know.rogerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17169397502645753955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-48055383655905211002018-04-20T03:04:00.010-04:002018-04-20T03:04:00.010-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.rogerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17169397502645753955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-62063393435863710162018-04-20T02:56:31.495-04:002018-04-20T02:56:31.495-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.rogerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17169397502645753955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-84033697091170285632018-04-19T18:19:01.179-04:002018-04-19T18:19:01.179-04:00someday!someday!Jim Wernerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12307419602315578911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-6065185612826546062018-04-19T18:18:37.690-04:002018-04-19T18:18:37.690-04:00Chris, I actually am putting up a second opinion f...Chris, I actually am putting up a second opinion for this issue and Mister Miracle since so many people do enjoy and I wanted to get the point of view of someone who likes both issues.

Nothing in this comic makes any sense for the reality that Tom King has set up and Booster Gold is nothing like the character that we've seen throughout the New 52 or Rebirth.......... which sucks because we just had a huge Booster Gold arc in Superman, where everything you need to know about Booster right now was laid out. Yet, Tom King doesn't seem to care about such things.

But at this point, it seems to me that Eric Shea has lost any semblance of objectivity as to this title. Out of 1,356 reviews compiled on Comic Book Roundup, Mr. Shea has only ever given 8 reviews with a score lower than this one. Tom King is not beyond criticism, but to rate this among the Worst Comics Ever suggests that Mr. Shea has simply become fed up with the book and is no longer able to objectively judge it on its own merits.Chris O'Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01765940239167625676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-9212851457792821062018-04-19T07:23:35.030-04:002018-04-19T07:23:35.030-04:00This mentality is the stupidest thing I see way to...This mentality is the stupidest thing I see way too often when it comes to comics. It basically boils down to people basically saying "I don't want to see people not liking something that I like."

Would you rather go to a site that likes everything or only reviews what they like? That would be easier, make it appear that you are more positive, BUT we review everything whether we like it or hate it. That's kind of what reviewing is. Just remember, we are NOT a fan site, we are a review site. We are NOT cheerleaders, we are guys and gals who love DC comics, but are not blinded by our love and are not trying to kiss ass and make friends with everyone. There are plenty of sites that will give Batman a 10/10 just because it's Batman. I think that one thing that escapes people now is that a critic is supposed to critique an issue and if they like it or don't like it, tell people why. Instead of using this tired old "why are you still reviewing it" nonsense, tell us why you liked it, why Eric is wrong in his review.
