Again, another great series that annoys me with the "They're right behind me, aren't they?" joke.

It's one of those rule-of-plot things--no matter how sensitive the character, there's time when much weaker, dumber, clumsier characters will be able to sneak up on them. Otherwise, not much of a challenge for him to notice the set-up.

I do think I'll love this series. Goddammit DC, first you pull me in with the promise of refined continuity, then you piss me off with too many bad titles, then you bankrupt me with too many good titles, and pretty soon I think you might pull the whole "don't call me, I'll call you" and I totally won't hear from you ever again.

Hang on, might've confused a comic-book publisher with a one-night stand.

I get that. Its just there are far more ways to do that than using a unfunny, overused cliche to do it. It really isn't hard to illustrate that people can be snuck up on. This is almost always used as a way to try and inject a little bit of humor into the situation. Except it doesn't, because its used to an absurd extent.
