But he didn't!<BR/><BR/>But here suddenly he KNOWS that condition their in (being tortured and possibly killed) and he sits around twiddling his thumbs!?<BR/><BR/>Was his whole plan to sit there waiting for Batman to rescue him!?<BR/><BR/>>.>;;<BR/><BR/>Honestly that story REEKED of "ending first, plot second". They needed to get from A to B to give Batman his team, and then they jammed their square pegs into the circular hole.<BR/><BR/>Amazingly, I didn't get Supergirl this week. Do you think it's worth it? XD Even just to review?<BR/><BR/>It sounds like the end of Loeb's run where he didn't die up what was going on with the 2 Supergirl's or Kara's past either. :(Ami Angelwingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07263018434610100226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15520935.post-13002769745739368792007-07-07T12:01:00.000-04:002007-07-07T12:01:00.000-04:00Sally, we are of a similar mind.

Sometimes, you want to kiss him and beat the crap out of him at the same time.<BR/><BR/>And Merlyn is the best villain Ollie's had in a long time. I don't count Deathstroke because Slade is everyone's enemy, it seems.<BR/><BR/>Gail Simone can't start writing Wonder Woman fast enough for me. If she can't get her back on track, I doubt anyone can.ShellyShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183404615688013084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15520935.post-36229874855952132842007-07-07T10:56:00.000-04:002007-07-07T10:56:00.000-04:00While I have developed a great deal of affection f...While I have developed a great deal of affection for Boomer, I have to admit that Dick is acting strangely out of character in Outsiders. And I REALLY hate that it is Batman who swoops down like the proverbial Deus ex Machina to save their collective behinds. The rest of Checkmate and the Outsiders didn't do ANYTHING except run around like idiots.<BR/><BR/>I was also depressed about Owen acquiring pants somehow. <BR/><BR/>Black Canary was fun. Ollis is such a twit sometimes, but a loveable twit. I rather like Mervyn as a villain, he's interesting.<BR/><BR/>Wonder Woman and Amazon Attacks just infuriates me. Killer bees for heaven's sake? I kind've like Nemesis, but Diana is behaving like a moron, and it doesn't become her. It's obviously MIND-CONTROL people! Figure it out!<BR/><BR/>Sheesh.SallyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592635194271250605noreply@blogger.com
