I've heard some good things about GL and GLC, and I picked up a few tie-ins that were pretty good, but I don't think this holds up as just a mini.

Also, it's entirely possible that these characters got character arcs in the tie-ins (I believe Mera played a big roll in the BN: Wonder Woman mini) but that doesn't excuse the main title for not having one.

About all the "who knows" things I mentioned in my original post, Im sure there are explanations floating around somewhere, my issue was that they just seemed random when they happened.
If some clues had been left and those moments were built up to, they would have seemed like a natural part of the story, instead they just seem random.

Anyway guys, love what your doing with the place here, if your interested I could put up some more posts like this if your interested (not necessarily negative ones)
I'm always down for more comic discussions on these boards.

Just know the audience is small, but dedicated.

And most hate DC.. *Stares at Prof*
