A Moment of Comics

Started reading the first 2010 Birds of Prey collection written by Gail Simone. It's pages like this (done by artist Ed Benes) where I think Simone is practically confessing that there was never anything all that interesting about Hank Hall, aka Hawk of Hawk and Dove (which is probably why the Steve Ditko creation remains the most broken character in mainstream comics history--just look him up and prepare to be confused). Still, Simone is making me more interested in Hawk and Dove than anything I've read in recent years, or maybe ever.

I Had Issues! My Old Review of New 52's Firestorm: The Nuclear Men #1-6

Part of my 52 Pick up series, part of the original title for this was "Who Dealt This Mess?"  The worst book I read during my time browsing the New 52. That's all I'll add to the intro. Originally published March 8, 2012. Edited for clarity and to remove references to the original site where this was first published.
