  1. The angle on OMAC’s mohawk is waaay off in that Finch cover. It looks like the tail of a peacock. OMAC’s gotta get those lady birds!

    I’m really digging how immaculate that dragon is in the Red Hood cover.

  2. Earth 2, get in my eyeballs now! Can’t wait for some JSA action!

    Giving Dial H a shot. Might be on board for more Batman Inc. schenanigans.

    That is all!

  3. Just have to say that I love the formating for this review. The covers are big enough that I can actually see them without having to waste time constantly enlarging and then returning to the main page.
    Everything here is perfect. I hope you continue to make this a regular monthly feature!! Awesome!!

  4. Rick Hood — you are being sarcastic, right? Or did I accidentally do something right? I couldn’t put the images up in large format for bandwidth and loading purposes.

    I would like to put up solicitations for every month. Not every company makes it as easy to do as DC does, however.

    Re the Masochist: she is also in the brokeback/Superman Knee pose, so three for three.

  5. Can I just second the thought about the pictures being the perfect size? Did you really not do that on purpose? :)

    Lovely boobs-and-butt pose by Fatality on the cover of New Guardians…

    Sarcasm aside, a surprisingly large number of these look like they might be fun! I think DC is really doing things right here!

  6. Gonna second both the “pics are the right size” and the “March?? wtf…” comments here.

    Ughh, bat-crossover. Means I’ll be getting the entire young justice line (w GL: NG as it ties to Beetle), including Ravagers, and also try out Earth 2 and Worlds Finest (unless the previews look horrible)

    Batwoman and Detective will be pointy-eared enough for me this month.

    Beast Boy and Terra in Ravagers, could be interesting.
    On the flip side, both the big brute and Lightning and Thunder seem like cannonfodder-characters, I wont be shocked if they’re dead 5 issues in.
