Words From the Peanut Gallery 11/15/10

1.  The ads for the new Batwoman series says she’s back because we demanded it.  First, I didn’t ask for shit and I want to know who did.  Let me get this straight:  when she was the main feature in Detective Comics, sales were so bad, she was removed and Batman was brought back.  So what does DC do?  Give her a new series.

 

2.   Speaking of new series, just how many Batman books do we need?  By the end of the year, there will be Batman, Detective Comics, Batman, Inc., Batman: Dark Knight, Batwoman, Batgirl, Red Robin and who knows what else.  People complain about Wolverine appearing everywhere in Marvel books and we get all this shit.  I thought we were in a recession.

3.      3.  What if the original Batman came back and nobody gave a damn?  After trying to keep up with the convoluted mess the Bat-universe has become, I can honestly state I will not be reading a Batman book again until things get better.

4.      4.  Why go through the trouble of bringing Cassandra Cain back if you‘re not going to use her?  Either the editor needs his ass kicked or this is just plain bad writing.
