My most recent blog post - I put it in to the comixology forum - but I don't think there's actually such a forum - clicking on the link shows the comixology user. How can I move it to General Discussion?

Although each arc can stand alone - it's really a huge 28 issue (as of now) huge story. You will definitely want to go buy the trades of the previous issues

Well, basically this is the premise of many comics since the 1980s from Watchmen to the Civil War storyline in Marvel to Irredeemable. In the days before Nixon it wasn't laughable to just trust that supers would do the right thing. Since then we question authority - including why we should trust these masked vigilantes. Interestingly, it's been a part of Spider-Man since the beginning with J. Jonah Jameson - looks like that comic was like 20 years ahead of its time.

It helps to know more about jesters to really understand where Snyder's going with Joker. Take a look on wikipedia - they're really about a lot more than just making the king laugh

so is it a reboot or just 3 new titles? They need to be careful. Their lack of constant reboots is part of why I like them over DC

I LOVED Snyder's Joker in TEC pre-52. Joch's art was perfect at the time. I can't wait to see Capullo's take on it!

I don't think it's fair to say he doesn't care about his characters. I think it's more like he's writing as if he were writing an Image series rather than the Marvel Universe where we never expect anyone to die. Frankly, it's a breath of fresh air to me.
