In response to "oof...Rob Liefield having a massive twitter meltdown...." by Remlik

Rob's an ass, but I will agree that the DC books seem to lack a unified editorial vision.

It feels like the EIC said relaunch and then left the individual editors to figure it out from there. The new 52 idea had promise, but it has been completely squandered and I can't say I'm enjoying very many of the books.

Responses:

It has been a smashing success for sales. - Spawn Aug 25, 13:33 10
- I know I picked up a LOT of new titles when the relaunch hit. But once December rolls around I'll probably dump half of them. - TWuG Aug 25, 13:41
- except for Batman, Detective, JLA, Aquaman, Swamp Thing, Animal Man and Wonder Woman...those books are excellent.... - Remlik Aug 25, 13:39 8
  - What is Gail Simone working on now? - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:45 5
    - Currently she's writing Batgirl. I think she left Firestorm with issue 6. -- nm - TWuG Aug 25, 13:49
    - I blame whoever revamped Poison Ivy. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 13:48 3
      - Did that happen after the revamp? - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:50 2
        
        Yes. Simone hasn't handles the BoP since the reboot. She'd do a thousand times better than the current writer. -- nm - TWuG Aug 25, 13:52
        
        No, with the reboot they un-sexified her. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 13:51
  - Swamp Thing is enjoyable, but I had to drop Animal Man because the art was putrid. -- nm - TWuG Aug 25, 13:43
  - I would not put JLA on their level. Especially with where it is going. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 13:41
