I'm still pissed that Oliver doesn't have his van dyke.

The Men of War covers never cease to amaze me.

If Boomerang's a permanent addition, I may just have to start reading Suicide Squad.

Green Arrow with short hair and no beard sucks. He looks too plain.

Yay, Captain Boomerang keeps his power-boomerangs. I thought he had lost them Red Robin #26, but I guess that was just a temporary thing so that he and Tim could have a more balanced fight.

I like the Voodoo and Stormwatch art - Suicide Squad cover's got a nice touch to it too. I was torn about Harley's new costume, but I feel like it could be something that would grow on me with a bit of patience. although I have to point out that although this new look for Arrow seems pretty Smallville-inspired, and Justin Hartley is very, verrry hubba-hubba, I'm not really digging the pretty-boy look for Oliver right now. eh, we'll see how it goes o_O

Ok, I despised the first Suicide Squad cover. But I've heard it's not terrible, and the cover harkens back to Harkness leaving his teammate to die in the first arc of the OG suicide squad.

I like the cover but there is something weird about the expressions on there faces.

Suicide Squad cover is perfect.

Although I'm not too interested in reading Men of War, I do have to admit they have been doing some pretty great covers, this one especially.

Stormwatch's covers are just not at the level they should be. I really enjoyed the first issue but I feel like it deserves better art to go with it. And it especially needs better covers.

@waruikumo: suicide squad's first issue was not all bad. the issue you dont really have to pick up. but i can tell you judging from the clever dialogue, and the raunchiness somewhat twisted storytelling it willl be a great series. you should maybe pick up the #2 and beyond for it! :)
