DC, The New 52 Week 4

Here's a quick run-down of the fourth week's books.
*Warning* Spoilers make it better!
*Disclaimer* This was the week where I started giving up on books midway. When the New 52 started, I pledged to read all the titles, but after 4 weeks of forcibly reading a few too many mediocre books, I couldn't do it any longer. Let's face it, after a few pages you can tell if you like a book or not. If things were getting too slow or boring, I merely skimmed through the rest of the book. So, take these reviews with a grain of salt. But, c'mon, why do you care what I have to think, anyway?

• All Star Western - Fan-Freakin-Tastic! I won't wast your time. Wonderful art. Gripping Story. Buy. PICK OF THE WEEK!
• Aquaman - Did he do it? Is Aquaman cool? Well, if you ask Geoff Johns he'd probably say that Aquaman was always cool. Still, for decades Aquaman has been the butt of many jokes, and this book deals with exactly that. We get Aquaman being a bad-ass with the crooks, and getting pretty frustrated with the citizens. Beautiful art from Ivan Ries. Buy!
• Batman: The Dark Knight - David Finch's art is hit or miss for me. Unfortunately, on this book, it's more miss. His Batman and villains scenes aren't nearly as inspired as last week's offering from Capullo on Batman #1. Finch's Bruce Wayne also leaves a lot to be desired. The clunky dialouge and tired story does this title no favors. This book is so pedestrian, it's actually bad. Skip. 
• Blackhawks - GI Joe in the DC universe. Art and story weren't anything to write home about but the premise will bring me back for another issue. Flip through.
• Fury of Firestorm: The Nuclear Men - Nothing new here. I must admit, some of the graturitous violence in these books is starting to get to me. Skip.
• Green Lantern: New Guardians - And on the fourth week there shall arrive a Green Lantern book worth reading. Maybe it's because of all the Lanterns, I have the least experience with Kyle, but this book was so refreshing. Fast-paced action, decent writing and art go a long way to making this title my favorite of the Lantern family. Buy, for now.
• I, Vampire - If I said this book was Twilight meets DC, I would be doing it a disservices; it's more than that. It's very well-drawn and nicely dialogued, albeit a bit light. At the end of the day, however. vampires aren't really my thing. Flip through.
• Justice League Dark - Wonderful pacing (we meet all the characters), fantastic art, brilliant concepts. This book had it all. Also, our first glimpse into what the regular Justice League look like. Buy.
• Superman - Admittedly, I didn't make it through this book. Too. Many. Words. Art was decent. Skip.
• Teen Titans - Couldn't care less. Never was a Titans guy. This did nothing to change that. Skip for me, maybe more for you.
• The Flash - Manapul's art may be getting a little too loose. I'm not sure if I care where this story is going. Flip through. 
• The Savage Hawkman - Hawkman is one of those characters that no one gets but no one really asks for. I can do without. Mediocre. Flip through.
• Voodoo - The book that boys are going to hide from their mothers. The whole thing takes place in a strip club and the art serves the purpose. Really hot stuff. Not sure if I care about the character, though. Flip through, but not in public ;)

That's it folks! 52 books in 5 weeks. Things got kinda rough there at the end, huh?

Don't have any idea what I'm talking about. Check out the New 52.
