What can be said about this book... I'll start with this. Jeremy Adams is a normally fantastic, fun writer. I love his run on Green lantern and Aquaman. When he is left alone to flesh out stories and ideas he thrives. But he leans into bad ideas and past mistakes in an effort to make it better. Sometimes it's best left alone. This is an idea that DC editorial came to him with and most likely said What can be said about this book... I'll start with this. Jeremy Adams is a normally fantastic, fun writer.

Deniz Camp has let the smoke get to his brain. A heavy handed political message that lacks any justification in this book. A total wreck from a writer who must spend more time wrapping blunts than working on plot and pacing.

The book is the newest example of the emperor's new clothes - most people who praise this book can't say why, but when they try, they sound as high as Deniz Camp loves to beag he is on social media. Say no to drugs kids, and talking chicken wings

Absolute smelling-your-own-farts #8 is an absolute waste of the reader's time and money. Even worse, it's an absolute waste of artist Javier Rodriguez's talent. Camp needs to lay off the holy herb and start writing a coherent story that actually goes somewhere.

The hiatus makes it that there "needs" to be recap, but some of it goes directly against things we saw at the end of the first trade. The art is good, but certain things feel more like gimmicks than they did in the first six issues (ie: multi-colored wing sauce and noodles). The last 2 pages may be the best and most intriguing the series has had yet, but not much happens leading up to it.

Another epic masterpiece by John Layman, my all-time favorite writer!!!!

I'm left scratching my head overall. What even was this story? Was it needed? I don't think so.

At least it was a nice shout-out to Tim Sale. I've enjoyed the different artists' takes in each issue. I really like Matteo Scalera's art in this final issue. It's worth reading the interview with him at the end. For me, this series has been all about the art. Unfortunately I think Jeph Loeb I'm left scratching my head overall. What even was this story?

I was looking forward to this. Mark Waid back on Flash. Cool! This could be good... I didn't realize Christopher Cantwell was co-writing it. Well, it's not terrible, but it ain't great either. I found it very expo-heavy. A lot of tell, tell, tell; and then this happened, and this, etc, etc. Nice art by Vasco Georgiev, though. But overall it was disappointing. 5.5/10

Layman's winning streak continues! A MODERN MASTERPIECE!!!!

WOW! Layman knocks it out of the park again!!!!

Wow! John Layman pens another masterpiece! Is there anything that kid can't do?!!!?

Possibly the best comic ever written, by the greatest writer in the history of the written word!

WOW! John Layman sure knows how to write an awesome comic book!!!!

Possibly the best comic ever written-- written by a GENIUS!!!!

Another masterpiece from the greatest human in comics!!!!!

How does Layman write one masterpiece after another? I AM IN AWE!!!

It took 30 issues to get to this? I hope Infernal Hulk has better pacing (paint drying has better pacing to be honest) and a tighter focus, but that is certainly not PKJs thing. How much you liked this run is definitely proportionate to your patience and mine wore thin 15 issues ago, but I made it to the end... if you can call it that.

THIRTY issues for this?!

A non-ending. A to-be-continued-pick-up-the-NEW-number-one-of our-not-really-new-continued Hulk comic?

What a disappointment.

Nice art by Nic Klein. Shame he was only on about half of the run.

I was initially blinded by the beautiful art by Jimenez, and it is gorgeous! So are the colours by Tomeu Morey. When I reread the story, I felt it was pretty basic overall. Yes, there's always going to be a lot of set-up in a first issue. But there were no major "wow" moments in the writing. The whole give-little-Croccy-a-toy-dinosaur plot felt a bit dumb on first reading, but after a re-read or t I was initially blinded by the beautiful art by Jimenez, and it is gorgeous!

Too early to say anything definitive. But I have worries. One of the reasons Robin was created was to give Batman someone to talk to. Now Bats has an AI holographic Alfred. That doesn't strike me as mentally healthy, especially considering the fact that there are 174,964 Bat family members Bruce can talk with.

This better not be another arc where Bats learns the value of family. Just s Too early to say anything definitive. But I have worries.
