Oh. so that’s who’se got the Blue Beetle armour now…
So ready for more Levitz Huntress!
God….That’s some REALLY REALLY REALLY UGLY Huntress art! YUK!
Excited for a Huntress centered story, but I am up in the air over the redesigned costume. Could just be a bad angle.
Penguin???? The Penguin? Have we not visited this “rage against the pretty people” angle for Oswald Cobblepot, Esq. enough already? And not finally do something with the Riddler after some pretty good story lines with him as a “babyface” in The Birds of Prey”? I wish them well but I will keep thinking of the “Batman: The Animated Adventures” version of the character as the twisted norm for him.
Maybe they’ll have a good story to tell. After all this is a relaunch, maybe it’ll be more concise and link into the Batman titles.
So… Does this make it 54, or are we not counting limited series? (I’m pretty sure I already know the answer to this question; I’m just being ‘funny’.)
