And a little bit too needy. Just like Talia!<BR/><BR/>Green Arrow doesn't exactly cover himself with glory in The Brave & the Bold. If you want something done properly Hal, you'd better hi-tail it back to earth and do it yourself. Ollie gets taken out by a common guard...how humiliating!<BR/><BR/>Manhunter was excellent. It was at least an attempt to save the character from whatever madness they could have thrown at her. <BR/><BR/>I like the Calculator, and I'm glad that they're making him on the badass side. Although I still want Oracle to be able to whup him. <BR/><BR/>The placing of the Faces of Evil over the titles was a bit annoying, as you said.SallyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592635194271250605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15520935.post-41607517554731151602009-01-28T22:15:00.000-05:002009-01-28T22:15:00.000-05:00It's rather sad that Ra's doesn't scare me, anymor...It's rather sad that Ra's doesn't scare me, anymore. :)ShellyShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183404615688013084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15520935.post-12877213630759091332009-01-28T22:07:00.000-05:002009-01-28T22:07:00.000-05:00I remember way back when Ras Al Ghul was actually ...I remember way back when Ras Al Ghul was actually cool -- back before he and Talia were overwritten to such ridiculous levels.

Of course any future set up would be only one possible and probably invalidated shortly (especially at DC where they have a bad habit of killing off failed legacy characters too quickly) but it's a sweet valentine to devoted readers to see how things would have ended up had their beloved series lasted another fifteen years or so.Baalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14347293902995572511noreply@blogger.com
