When I was a kid I bought comic books all the time. Always DC. I
didn’t really buy that many Marvel comics. I always thought they weren’t
superhero enough. They were always making some kind of dumb comments.
I just started buying “Action Comics” and “Justice League Of
America.” Everything is new, as of now, there is no JLA, they’re just
meeting one another. The Green Lantern said something that I’ve been
saying for a long time. He meets Batman and ask him what his superpowers
are. Batman say I don’t have any. Lantern says, “Your just a guy in a
bat uniform?” I’ve been saying that for a long time, he’s not a real
super hero. He’s more like a glorified James Bond.
Later on it, it’s Green Lantern, The Flash, Batman and Superman
fighting some alien robots. Flash says to Lantern (talking about
Batman), “What’s his powers?” Lantern says, “He don’t have any.” Flash
ask Batman what he’s doing here. Batman says, “I keep everybody focus.”
What is this? You got a bunch of people running around with
superpowers and they can’t focus! This reminds me of the 70’s Yankees.
Batman is the Billy Martin of the club trying to get all the prima
donnas to work as a unit.
Another thing. It seems like the Green Lantern has a hard time
concentrating. When he doesn’t his ring powers becomes unstable. Just
what we need a guy running around with a power ring he can’t control.
Now I want to talk about the style of the artwork in the comics. I
don’t like it. It all looks like the Heavy Metal comic book artwork.
Most of the color is in blue and there’s fighting going on in each
panel. I find it dark and very hard on the eyes.
