DC Series Review Questions

Post by wolf_2099 »

Has anyone read:

Peter David Young Justice (1-55)

Mard Waid Impulse (1-27)

Judd Winick Green Arrow (26-75)

I was considering buying them.

(Well, I bought Young Justice.)

I've read bits and pieces of Young Justice and Impluse and really enjoyed what I read. My favorite scene in Young Justice is they're trying to sneak peak what the Justice League is saying by reading lips and Impulse keeps making weird statements up that are close but waaay off, so then Robin takes over and slowly puts the binoculars down. "Batman just said 'Robin, put down the binoculars'". Or something to that effect, it was friggin hilarious!

I have read Winnick's run on Green Arrow and it was meh, not great but not horrible. Some of the story ideas sucked and I dropped it for awhile.

Impulse is nice and short, so maybe I shall try it.

I recently read a blog article about what a shame it was that PAD's Young Justice was canceled as it was a great book, with real fun.
That's all I can tell you. I've never read any of the books.

Makes me happy then. Picked up 44 of 55 (plus a few JLA issues) issues of the series for 30 bucks.

I've been following Green Arrow since it relaunched, and as for Judd's run like stated earlier it wasn't spectacular, and nothing overly huge happened in it. If you are going to go for it, I would probably recommend the post- One Year Later sections, up to where it was relaunched as GA/BC. After Identity Crisis Deathstroke became a big presence in GA so it wasn't always bad. But nothing spectacular really came from it, or at least nothing immediately memorable.

I'd suggest the last story just before OYL, so you know what leads directly into that and then everything beyond that.


But I must admit I really would like to have the complete YJ collection since it ended before I really got into DC.
