Week of March 5 2008 Super Short Reviews :DDD

Hi :D

Okay so I'm slowly easing back into this review thing again XD It's only been 2 months but it's felt like 2 years :( Time just got all messed up for me while I was dealing with what happened to me :\ I think I'm mostly okay now, tho I still have flashbacks... ;-; *growls*

I'm trying to get my happy back so hopefully my reviews aren't more dour than usual or something! xD

Neways, so on to the first Super Short Reviews for 2008 :D

So this week I got:

The All New Atom - #21
Detective Comics - #842
Green Lantern - #28
Supergirl - #27
Teen Titans: Year One - #3 (of 6)


:]

Sably this week wasn't as good as I had hoped, at least imo :\ But that is okay :) Last week with Blue Beetle and LoS was good enuf to tide me over neways XD Plus GL :D

So here are the SSRs!!! :D

The All New Atom - #21 - This is first issue of the new creative team and it kinda shows. Ryan just doesn't seem like RYAN. He seems a lot less optimistic and a lot angrier than Simone's Atom :\ Same with Panda :( Also the plot is pretty generic. Hopefully things will pick up but this issue didn't grab me at all :( 2/5

Detective Comics - #842 - This is a servicible "filler" issue, but rly, did we need a story about Batman's new armor? Also it reads a lot like a Venom Symbiote knock off story :\ I think the ending kind of saves it, and as usual shows Batman's determination, but it just feels very thrown together in general :( 2/5

Green Lantern - #28 - This was another great issue and I rly luff how interesting GL's gotten since the Sinestro War and I rly can't wait to see what other twists and turns are waiting :D Esp relating to the 10 new laws. Also we finally get to see the birth of the other Lantern Corps :D 4/5

Supergirl - #27 - One day Supergirl will get a stable creative team that knows what to do with her and develop for her a real cast of supporting characters and an environment unique to her and her life and adventures. One day Supergirl will stop spending all her time in different time periods, alternate universes, hallucinations and shrunken cities. Today however is not that day :( It's another "Supergirl is in another reality/time period" story and just... blah :\ Srsly can we stop with the Supergirl in crisis stories and just start to figure out WHO Kara is and give her a REAL CAST? :\ 1/5

Teen Titans: Year One - #3 (of 6) - This seems kinda rushed, but I guess they want to tell more than just a re-telling of the creation mission of the Titans. xD It IS very pat how quickly they resolved things, tho hopefully it's not over yet :D The art is cute tho the story was just kinda blah to me. It was just sorta like things were happening. :\ It's cute but not as interesting as I had hoped for. :\ 2.5/5

Neways, yus, so that's the Super Short Reviews for this week :) Hopefully I'll get some longer reviews up soon :D

*hugs*

Take cares!

4 angel hugs! :D:

I was a little bothered that Ryan was so stupid to run the experiment unassisted the first time. He's been shown working with the other faculty professors--why wouldn't he have them helping now?

Ami Angelwings said...

I'm completely in agreement with you on this Randy! It was very out of character from the Ryan that Simone established, for him to work without Panda or the other professors watching over him. :\ He usually has them monitoring things and stuff! And it's not like they're untrustworthy or nething!

I almost bought Atom 21, but when i flipped through it, there were all these pictures of Atom floating around in these vague environments, all alone, and it just didn't look very interesting.

Giant: It wasn't. XD
