Comic Book Challenge Day 22: A Comic Book Second Volume Which Disappointed You
????
I’m really not even sure what today’s topic is supposed to mean. Is it the second volume as in the second arc of a series? Or a series that starts with a #1 issue, but is the second time for a series to use the title?
I am thinking it is the latter, so that is how I will answer. I would have to say that DC’s New 52 was a disappointment for me. There are some great series over there (Batman, Aquaman, Animal Man, Swamp Thing), but so many titles have been such a let down. Some of the biggest let downs for me were the Superman titles. There was just something missing, and a lot of it was just mediocre. Catwoman and Teen Titans are two more titles that just ooze with disappointment.
I’m a DC guy at heart, but it seems there is just a lot of mediocre dribble over at DC right now. I never was a Marvel guy, but I have gone over. I guess I just like the “fun” more than the doom and gloom. The fact that I have “switched sides” is what disappoints me about the new 52.
