	God, I love it when the League is bickering while kicking ass at the same time. XD (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	I have to say I really loved the issue. So much happened, plenty of tongue in cheek, it was worth buying. (Reply to this)

	I think the highlight of these scans for me was the sharks turning the uhh...mutated bat thingies into dinner. Also cosplaying Beetle!Darkseid. (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	The mutated bat things are Parademons. New look (and some new powers) but with just enough elements from the old design to make them pretty recognizable. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Yeah, Hal really was an ass, especially towards Aquaman. "Hey, let's just let the demons fly around killing people for a couple of minutes while I assert my superiority as a hero." (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	It seems that Johns has picked a new hero to build up hugely at the expense of others. Though in all fairness, Aquaman perhaps needs it for new readers. (Reply to this)

	Parts that were awesome. Cyborg. Aquaman shutting Hal the hell up. Batman laughing at Hal. Not so awesome. Hal is a douchebag. I am really starting to hate him. (Reply to this) (Thread) (Expand) (Hide 4 comments) (Show 4 comments)

To be fair, it IS Hal. He seems to have only three settings,

- Blandly MacBland Pants (the current comics ever since he stopped being the Spectre)
- Asshole (most over depictions, except bizarrely when he was Parallax)
- Conflicted hero (New Frontier and the movie, though in the latter it's mixed with the second for most of the film)

And the third one isn't used that much.

	Johns still trying to make Aquaman a badass (I'm actually okay with this :P) Darkseid looks like he's wearing Jaime's scarab and JLA arguing all the time... Alright, call me "on board"! XD (Reply to this)

	Not so much "attack" as "pose dramatically for three splash pages, including a double-page spread." Seriously. That's all Darkseid does in this issue, despite the hype. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Expand) (Hide 4 comments) (Show 4 comments)

	I said it when the solicit came out, and I'll say it again. this is the hottest Aquaman has ever looked, and I LIKE IT. also, the lasso moment actually made me feel a little bad for Hal -it makes him more pathetic than annoying. :T (Reply to this)

	no subject junipepper 2011-12-22 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	Word. Plus note that Hal was the one who came out with the Aquaman joke -- "thought he was a sketch on Conan O'Brien." (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Expand) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	Okay, I now have a crush on Aquaman. Mission accomplished, Johns. Just make him be scruffy in his own book, okay? And possibly bring back the man-cleavlage from his old costume? 'cause seriously, I am all for making Aquaman the hot one on the Justice League. (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	motto. Now if they can just can the in-Universe Aquaman jokes, I'll be happy. It doesn't even make sense. If people don't know who he is, why would they make disparaging jokes about him? And if they do know who he is -- why would they make disparaging jokes about him? He's totally badass. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	So Johns continues his weird point-proving "I'll show you!" exercise with Aquaman. This actually getting really old really fast. (Reply to this)

	Ah, yes, these are the fun, likeable, relatable characters I was hoping to get in exchange for years of characterization and my facorite books. I'm just going to go take a long bath and listen to Adele for awhile, laters. (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 2 comments) (Show 2 comments)

	Accident or new level of creepy via trying to touch Diana? I would hope accident. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Yes, and thank you. If there's one argument I do not want to find in the mouth of any remotely heroic character, it's that one. You'd think we were past the "just following orders" defense. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	I like the "Wonder Woman can slice through an army" line. And boy... poor Hal, he gets dumped on a lot. (Reply to this)

	I think when we jump forward to the future Hal will be nothing like this. After all the shit he has gone through in five years, if he still acts like this it is only so his friends think he is ok. (Reply to this)

	Especially since it's so situational. Good thing the baddies just happened to be flying low over the ocean, otherwise the situation would have been pretty awkward for Aquaman. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Expand) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	I feel rather bad for how Hal's being written, and that's a very strange experience, especially under Geoff Johns' pen. He used to do the "Batman is a jerk" to build Hal up a whole lot, and now it's... I'm conflicted. (Reply to this)
