The art is awesome.  I've always loved Jim Lee's art.  But, I'm a bit surprised it wasn't at least a double issue.  Not a lot happens.

A lot going on this week so just picked up Justice League today. Will read it this weekend.

Lot's of The New 52 releases today! Which ones did you pick up?? I picked up Justice League International, Action Comics & Green Arrow. This is my ratings on each title I have so far.
Justice League - 8
JLI - 10
Action Comics - 9
Green Arrow - 9
I planned on just getting #1 of Action but will be getting next months issue. I didn't plan on picking up Green Arrow at all, but it looked so cool! Also looked at Detective Comics and Stormwatch.
To those that are reading these new 52 comics have any of you noticed anything in each of the books??

Lots of The New 52 this week. I decided not to get any of this weeks even though a couple of them seemed interesting. Green Lantern and Batman & Robin. There has been alot of talk about how different the Superboy title is as well.
Next week I have the new Star Trek comic plus Captain America, Captain America Corps & The Avengers. I may not have have enough funds to pick up any of The New 52. There are 4 that look pretty good including Batman, Green Lantern Corps, Supergirl & Wonder Woman. What to do, what to do!
Have any of you picked up any of these new 52??

I enjoyed "Batman & Robin" #1 and "Action Comics" # 1.  Didn't care much for the "Green Arrow" book (and he was a big favorite of mine for awhile back in the day).  I've read a couple others like "Batwoman" and they didn't grab me much so far.

I picked up Supergirl #1 and I thought it was pretty good. I would give it an 8. They get right into the action! I ended up with just 1 new 52 this week because I had 4 books on my pull this week. I was thinking about Green Lantern Corps and I didn't see it when I was looking for it. Another comic was covering it up so the guy running the place told me it was over there and he let me put it the pull box for next week. Awesome! They sold out of the Wonder Woman because I would have got that instead of Supergirl but it wasn't to be.
Next week I have Fury of Firestorm on my pull list. May pick up another one too.

I plan on reading Supergirl.  Used to follow that one monthly.  Might give Wonder Woman a go too.

Yeah I loved the last Supergirl run, i collected all issues and i think i'll grab this one.

Rico

Ok, got and read "Supergirl" and "Wonder Woman" now.  Liked Supergirl quite a bit.  Nice art, story is interesting.  Wonder Woman was a let down for me.  Didn't really care for the art or the story.

WillEagle

I wanted to check out the Wonder Woman and I had noticed that is was going to be a different art style. I was thinking of asking if the comic shop could get a copy for me. Don't think I will now.
Rico, didn't you love it how they got right into the action in Supergirl! Cool ending also!

Yep, I liked the style and pace of the Supergirl book a lot.  And the art was terrific too.  Going to probably keep up on this one.

Yeah, I'm thinking of adding it to my pull list. I know you said before you didn't care for the Green Arrow. I liked that book.

Rico

I used to read Green Arrow very regularly.  I like him a bit older and more seasoned than the "New 52" version.

WillEagle

Thats a really good point. I didn't read much of his book except I have read the Green Arrow/Black Canary books which I have 2 here from the library. This is the more recent storyline of theirs.

Lots of great "The New 52" books this week. The last batch of #1's. I picked up Superman, the only one he had left, The Fury of Firestorm The Nuclear Men, and The Green Lantern Corps which was released last week. The shop got in 2nd printings of Justice League, Action and Batgirl which had cool covers but I already had then except Batgirl. The Action one had a really cool cover.
I haven't mentioned this before but I like that most of these are still $2.99 I hope they stay that way.
Superman rates a 9.
Firestorm also gets a 9.
Enjoyed them both alot. Firestorm has some bad guys that I really wanted the Firestorm to start pounding on but they didn't quite get to it in this issue. And #2 is a month away!!!!
Enjoyed quite a few of "The New 52" can't wait for the #2's!!
