As for what's wrong...I'm glad you like it. As for what's wrong, I woild say the awful dialogue, the ridiculous story telling and the over explanation. I love the art, but other than that, the book is a mess. DC announced it was canceled after two issues for a reason...the sales were horrendous because everyone is tired of Ann Nocenti's writing. So we will get 6 issues of this book and it will be added to her being replaced on 2 books and getting another book canceled.Jim Wernerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12307419602315578911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-7689127217508208232015-01-15T22:33:59.591-05:002015-01-15T22:33:59.591-05:00I think this series is very strong and inventive o...I think this series is very strong and inventive on every level and getting better with every issue. If you think something's wrong with a book I think you have an obligation to explain exactly what you think is the problem rather than simply indulging in childish name-calling.

I'm really just reading for the characters and this had a lot of Piper and Noah, who are now my favorites in the series.Masumi5http://burnsidebatgirl.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-82879903427240043802015-01-15T21:34:17.969-05:002015-01-15T21:34:17.969-05:00The sooner she leave, the better.

I have a high tolerance for poor storytelling (I though Transformers ROTF was decent) and while the first two issues were passable, even I thought this was bad. The bee scene in particular sucked.Masumi5http://burnsidebatgirl.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-25862510087865252052014-12-29T00:27:41.859-05:002014-12-29T00:27:41.859-05:00Not that I disagree with your critique as a whole,...Not that I disagree with your critique as a whole, but "uncanny valley" is actually a thing.

The best I can tell you is Nocenti is friends with some DC Comics heavy hitters from back in the day and they won't fire her. I hope this is the last straw.Jim Wernerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12307419602315578911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-17431882751961770662014-12-11T22:34:44.455-05:002014-12-11T22:34:44.455-05:00Even reading your summary of klarion makes my head...Even reading your summary of klarion makes my head hurt...why doesn't DC just fire nocenti?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09408074878000779731noreply@blogger.com
