Re: Comic Book Fans....

How does Jean fit into that? From the little I've read it said that Logan was the new headmaster and that Jean has essentially filled in for Prof. X.

Jean's been dead (again) for years now. Unless they have her coming back in the final issue of Schism which I doubt.

Anyway the whole thing is really about Scotts leadership the last few years and Logan disagreeing with how things are being handled. Its come to as head and they're banging it out while a Sentinel controlled by the new hellfire club comes to demolish Utopia.

A chart on the new 52 by MightyGodKing (pretty well known comics blogger)

Spoiler


Also George Perez has been booted off the Superman book at least on scripting duties. He'll be off the book after issue #7 with Keith Giffen/Dan Jurgens taking over.

Re: Comic Book Fans....

Any of the other writers being replaced already? Is that normal or no?

I was really hyped about Legion of Superheroes, but found it to be bad and a poor introduction for someone completely new to the Legionnaires.

Overall I'm really happy to be following comics again!

Deathstroke was a great read..looking forward to reading more.
Has anyone checked out Batwing? The art in there is excellent and the story has potential..

On another note I'm really disappointed with this current Moon Knight run. They turned his internal, dark struggle with Khonshu into some lame copycat of Murdock from the A-Team. Not happy..

In the Perez case it's not too normal as it's probably in reaction to the bad internet press about the first issue. JT Krul is also leaving his book (Green Arrow) after 8 issues I believe with Giffen/Jurgens taking over there as well though in Krul's case it's because he was offered a project that he couldn't turn down and he wants to devote more energy to the Captain Atom book.

Re: Comic Book Fans....

I haven't read comics in ages but with the new 52 I decided to try a few out and have enjoyed them. I picked up Action Comics #1, Superman #1, Batman#1, Justice League #1 & Batgirl #1. I tried to get Wonder Women but they were sold out at the time but will try to get it in a second printing. I look forward to the next editions

Re: Comic Book Fans....

I've enjoyed them as well.

I preferred Supergirl, Justice League, Action, and Superboy over Batwoman, Batman and Flash. The Flash is the only one I didn't care for. Of course this may not hold up for the 2nd issue of these titles.

So is Superman in jeans (Action #1) a slightly younger version of the Superman I saw in
