Back to Comics

AAAARRRRGGGHHH!

The season of tie-ins cometh!

Idly paging through the upcoming months of DC comics, it looks like DC it attempting to suck every dollar from their customer's wallets in the next few months. Instead of just having one Countdown comic, it looks like they're expanding to no less than four. The Sinestro war also is too big for just the two core Green Lantern books, so they're adding a third book to that, as well. Finally, the comics starring the heroes we all wanted to see more of from "52" are starting to appear, as well.

Here's a taste of the new comics coming out in the next few months I now have to decide whether to buy or not:

COUNTDOWN TO MYSTERY
COUNTDOWN TO ADVENTURE
COUNTDOWN PRESENTS THE SEARCH FOR RAY PALMER
BOOSTER GOLD
BLACK ADAM: THE DARK AGE
INFINITY INC.
TALES OF THE SINESTRO CORPS PRESENTS:

One of the things that worries me is quality. I'm not too keen on the current quality of "Countdown". Can spreading it out to several books make things better? We'll have to see. Hopefully, this cover from JLA Classified isn't a hint where DC art is going as they expand the number of books coming out:

That is some seriously bad cover art. Is that supposed to be Martian Manhunter? I mean, come on.

I weep to see J'onn J'onnz rendered in such a fashion. Hopefully, the interior art is a step up. The second issue's cover art isn't any better.
