The pomposity and forthrightness, sure, but the womanising?<BR/>That's not really Green Arrow so much, and I love Green Arrow.<BR/><BR/>Still - excellent point on the Spectre re: Gotham Central. That's made me so much more excited about the next two issues than I was before.

Her whole point seems to be making Ollie feel guilty about his womanizing. Fine, but do it in <B>Green Arrow.</B> <BR/><BR/>It doesn't help that the Key's a crappy villain. The only time he was cool was when Morrison wrote him, and, even then, it was like eight pages over two issues. The rest was Morrisony takes on Imaginary Stories.

I wish to god her and Green Arrow had stayed in the JL Elite. And then, after the JL Elite ended, they could have just continued on there... thankfully off-screen (panel).Jhunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10729450667676575566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-1134615401265289822005-12-14T21:56:00.000-05:002005-12-14T21:56:00.000-05:00It's true; the JLA turned into a bunch of whiners....It's true; the JLA turned into a bunch of whiners.

And yeah, the JLA, what a bunch of ineffectual whiners. (A little less voting, and a lot more ass-kicking, please.)

Even in bearded, alternate mirror universes, evil stupid people love Jonah Hex.<BR/><BR/>In re: Ultimates, I'm in the minority here, but this issue was the one where I decided I don't need to keep buying this comic. Nothing to do with the political views, just too much rampant stupidity and plot hammering. This "season", if you will, has had no cohesive story, really -- it's one SHOCKING MOMENT followed by two boring issues, followed by another SHOCKING MOMENT, etc, etc.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01346148754086281062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-1134570749388293102005-12-14T09:32:00.000-05:002005-12-14T09:32:00.000-05:00Re: JSA, I found the issue itself a bit disappoint...Re: JSA, I found the issue itself a bit disappointing, but definitely liked the ending line.
