Old Man Logan is continuing under a new writer(though we also have rumors about regular Wolverine returning soon) and we haven't heard anything about Thanos.

Why the fuck did they make Queen Marella white in Earth 2 Society when she was black in Earth 2 and Earth 2 Worlds End?
It ain't the lighting either. Earth 2 Society #12 has her looking whiter than Fury in some shots.
What the fuck?

Rumors that I don't want to actually be true
Obviously Atlanteans can't be black.

Loved the action and feel of this issue, but did have some minor quarrels with it.
Those are really minor though, other than those small things I thought the action and feel of this issue was great.
Super Sons
Fucking Finally! We finally get the book that I was excited for the most coming out of the Rebirth announcement.
Loved it. I also loved the structure of layering the timeline. Prologue, current time and the two weeks ago that we get feel completely separate and have me really intrigued how they all connect.
Wild Storm
I liked this, but I feel like I would have liked it a lot more if I knew more about Wildstorm. I'm really curious to learn more, but the weird connection of everyone seemed lost on me.

The plan for Psycho Pirate curing Gotham Girl just seems dumb. All that is holding it up is Alfred with a gun?! Catwoman just hanging out with some cats and not really explaining what happened with the Robins also bothered me.

So the Wild Storm was pretty much everything I was hoping for. Ellis did a fantastic job setting up the world and and at the very least hinting at the major organizations. I'm really interested in seeing how things work out with

For those not familiar with the Wildstorm U, every character who was named in the issue is an existing character who has been tweaked for this new take on the universe.
The

Wow, Silk #1-#7 was really really good! Loved the pacing of the whole arc and the side characters introduced. JJJ was great. Thompson was able to get across Cindy's feeling of isolation (even outside of the bunker) so well. Lee's art was pretty good and the colouring was great. The highlight for me though was #7! The frantic end in the backdrop of the incursion was perfect. And I loved Ford's art. A great fit to the undertones of melancholy that existed right from #1.

I assumed it would be. Bennett seems to have a better grasp on Kate than pretty much anyone else that has touched her, outside of maybe Blackman.

The Williams / Blackman book was really dull storytelling held up by generally outstanding art. My hierarchy of Batwoman writers:
Rucka
Tynion in 'Tec
Blackman / Williams
Andreyko

I really liked the Blackman / Williams run. Though more for story reasons than Kate's characterization. I thought the whole "Religion of Crime" angle was pretty cool.

Also read a charming little D+Q comic called Mooncop by Tom Gauld. Follows a Moon cop who is in charge of a dying colony (people leaving - not dying). Some brilliant art that sets the mood perfectly.

Randomly jumped back in to check out how this was going.
This book is a fucking mess. This issue starts out with I assume a flashforward? Then it changes time and Superman and Batman are talking about something that contradicts the very last panel? Then a whole bunch of flashes to another time with all heroes that basically reminds me of Hitch's JLA, then there is a random girl that is some time agent and there are time bombs to make Flash slow?
This book is a fucking mess. How is Hitch still on this book? Just from one issue this feels like a copy of the Doctor Strange Empirical only with them against Meta's instead of Magic. But throw in Matt Damon and Emily Blunt's imaginary child from The Adjustment Bureau and some Lost Flash Forwards that are pointless and confusing for no god damn reason other than there is apparently no other known way to start an arc.
Fuck this book.

Urgh, is there someone you can talk to?
Not really. Not at work because there are the people who do this to me and I dont want to worry my family. But it will be fine. I just need a evening off. I am cooking a good meal right now and will watch some TV afterwards. It will be fine.

Walking Dead was the first book I cracked open this morning, and I realized something: I miss new black and white books. I try lots of indies every month and b&w books are like unicorns.
Colored panels are lovely and deserve their place in the top spot, but I love good black and white art too. I guess nobody buys them?

I'm still mad the Morrison written Batman B&W series hasn't had anything announced since it was revealed along with Multiversity Too.

What good B&W books are ongoing other than Walking Dead? Usagi and Love & Rockets:New Stories are all I can think of.

Motor Girl too.
I feel like there used to be a lot more just a few years ago among the smaller publishers, but even the smallest of them have gone full color in almost all of their books. I wonder if this is because it's cheaper than it used to be...?

The Wild Storm artist looked familiar. Then I realized it the Clean Room artist.

Only read the first issue, but it seemed ok. There was a burst of a ton of characters and it made it a bit hard to follow and confusing, but the action moments and the art were great.
